Whoopi Goldberg is addressing speculation about her sexuality.
Goldberg recently appeared on "The Best Podcast Ever" with Raven-Symoné, who admitted that she felt like The View host gave off "lesbian vibes."
“Honestly, when I was around you, I loved you so much, like, I just wanted to be up underneath the titty the whole time,” Symoné, who also co-hosted The View with Goldberg, said, per Vibe, on her podcast. “But that’s also because you just kind of gave me lesbian vibes!”
Symoné’s wife, Miranda, chimed in with her thoughts on the subject. “I think this is a secret fantasy of Raven’s! I think she just wants everybody to be gay and she’s just really hoping you’ll come out right here, right now," Miranda said.
Goldberg then shut down speculation of her being a lesbian. “Women have been asking me this for as long as I’ve been around, I am not a lesbian,” she said. “But I know lots of them, and I’ve played them on television.”
The daytime television host went on to discuss how she treats her lesbian friends. “I’ll tell them, ‘I’m not gonna kiss you, but I’ll kiss you over here, I’ll do this, but I’m not going to do this’ … and they’re like, ‘OK!’” Goldberg said.
Goldberg, who has been married three times, opened up about her past divorce earlier this month. “I was dancing and prancing around, I was so glad to get out of there,” Goldberg said of her marriages. “Because I always knew, I always thought, ‘you didn’t want to do this, and you knew you didn’t want to do it, and you did it anyway,’ so shut up and move on.”
