Breaking News: James Woods Claims “Whoopi Goldberg Is One of the Worst Characters on TV”
In a fiery statement that has reignited Hollywood feuds, actor James Woods has publicly criticized Whoopi Goldberg, calling her “one of the worst characters on TV.” Woods, known for his outspoken and often controversial opinions, made the remark during a recent interview, sparking both backlash and support across social media.
The comment came as Woods was discussing the current state of television and what he perceives as a decline in quality. “There are a lot of talented people out there, but then you have personalities like Whoopi Goldberg, who somehow manage to stay on screen despite being one of the worst characters on TV,” Woods said.
Fans of Goldberg, who has been a co-host on The View since 2007 and a prominent figure in Hollywood for decades, quickly rallied to her defense:
- “James Woods is just bitter. Whoopi is an EGOT winner. Let me know when James has one,” tweeted a fan.
- “This is just James being James. When’s the last time he was relevant?” another commented.
However, Woods’ remarks also found support among his own fan base:
- “He’s just saying what a lot of us are thinking. Whoopi has gone off the rails,” one user posted.
- “Finally, someone calls out her nonsense. Thanks, James,” wrote another.
Goldberg has not directly addressed Woods’ remarks, but during a recent episode of The View, she cryptically said, “Some people just can’t handle strong women who speak their minds. And that’s okay—it’s their problem, not mine.”
As the debate continues to rage online, industry insiders are questioning whether Woods’ comment was a genuine critique or a calculated move to stir controversy. Either way, it has put both him and Goldberg back in the headlines, proving once again that Hollywood thrives on drama.
