'The View's' Whoopi Goldberg has 'no apologies' for D.C.'s Michaele Salahi
Oh, we would never want to be on the receiving end of a can of Whoop-A** Goldberg. But, apparently, Michaele and Tareq Salahi were.
On Wednesday (August 4), the cast of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of D.C." appeared on "The View." Afterward, Michaele Salahi accused co-host Whoopi Goldberg of hitting her.
On Thursday (August 5), Goldberg explained her side of things complete with replays of the video. She then explained what happened during her heated argument with the Salahis backstage.
"So, I told her that she knew I didn't hit her," explains Goldberg. "And, yeah, you know how I said it - choice words. And I make no apologies for my choice words."
The footage shows no signs of Goldberg hitting Salahi. If anything, she's guilty of touching her too lightly in our opinion. [Editor's note: We would never advocate violence against a "Real Housewife."] Then, according to Goldberg, Tareq Salahi got involved and began taking pictures of the opinionated co-host.
"Needless to say, I really went off then and there more choicer words," says Goldberg. "I mean they were so choice, you could have cut them with a knife and eaten them."
Team Whoopi or Team Michaele? Sound off!

Team Whoopi. I'm team anyone who is against any of the "real" housesluts of whatever city. What bunch of dumb bimbos.
Plan my funeral, cause I just died from watching/reading this post. In. SANE!!!!
Goldberg: “choice words. And I make no apology for my choice words.”
Whatever. Here are a few more choice words: Goldberg and the “View from the Toilet seat” has had her nose stuck so far up one president’s axe she’s still sportin the dinglburry. I’m not sayin…I’m just sayin.
Oh, and Salahi: S T F U You should have read the fine print of your contract where it says talentless people that want $$$$$ and camera time must amuse the moronic masses by alternative bouts of antics and abuse. Check out LiHo for a guide to how it’s done.
common america... this is pathetic. there has to be something better to discuss than this bullshit.
HA Iceland, you're a loser. Taking the time out to comment that commenting on the story that you were clearly reading is pathetic. Methinks the lady doth protest too much.
Barbara Walters should get off her deathbed and try to save this sinking ship. Whoopi acts like a crackhead most days.
WHOOPI ALL THE WAY!!! Salahi's need to quit begging for media attention, and trying to get a payday from famous celebrities. The Salahi's are true idiots in my opinion.
Seems like Whoopie is always getting her big mouth into trouble. She is getting like Rosie O'Donnell. Get this ***** off the air. The show is starting to get stale. Joy thinks she is the best thing since sliced bread. Sheree is just plain stupid. Whoopie should use less comments and remember this is a VIEW, not a commentary show. I for one will not watch anymore because I can't stand Whoopie and her love for Mel Gibson, give it up already loser Whoopie
Team Whoopi!!!!
I believe they did crash the White House party OR it was set up by NBC which owns Bravo. Which, of course, is very friendly with the President.
What do the people behind "The View" expect? They know what sleezebags all of the "Real Housewives" are and they are surprised that it turns into a circus. Get real...The View needs to go away. How many times have they "celebrate" folks like Speidi
