I’m Leaving Y’all’: Whoopi Goldberg Walks Off ‘The View’ Amid Miranda Lambert Controversy

Whoopi Goldberg stunned audience members of The View when the cohost walked off the stage during a live show this week sparked by the controversy involving singer Miranda Lambert who stopped one of her recent concerts to scold music fans for taking selfies during the show. Of course Whoopi Goldberg walked off as a joke and wasnt actually leaving the show despite the wishes of many critics. Videos of Whoopi Goldberg walking off The View certainly took the Internet by storm as the cohosts debated the situation with Miranda Lambert and it all had many critics hopeful for a subtle moment or three.
For background Miranda Lambert was in the debate spotlight after stopping her show just to yell at some fans who wanted selfies of their concert experience. Tickets for Miranda Lambert were probably more than just a few bucks and its not uncommon for people to take photos at concerts to share on social media or keep for memories. The cohosts of The View were debating the situation with Miranda Lambert and if she should have stopped the show to yell at people or if people should be taking selfies at shows etc. It was a clouded mess of opinions that got Whoopi to stand up and walk towards the audience and say Im leaving yall.
It was cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin who tried appealing to both sides of the argument when it came to debating Miranda Lamberts controversial 

situation. Griffin suggested that Lambert shouldnt be calling out anyone who paid good money to come see her in concert as its embarrassing to fans especially if theyre just taking selfies and not causing trouble for other fans. This is where Whoopi Goldberg chimes in suggesting the fans are rude for taking selfies. Whoopi said They paid money for the tickets they came to see her so shes singing. Give at least a little respect acknowledge that you can see her and she can see you too.
