Whoopi Goldberg was fired up after her fellow co-hosts on the “The View” continually interrupted her during Tuesday’s episode.
Towards the end of their Hot Topics segment about pickleball, the “Sister Act” star was cut off six times before she theatrically threw down her cue cards.
“I feel attacked here,” Ana Navarro said, starting off the discussion after Goldberg posed the question about whether or not pickleball was a real sport.
Goldberg tried to intervene, when co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin quipped that “it’s harder than it looks.”
Again, the “Ghost” actress went to make a point, but got cut off by Navarro, Griffin, Sara Haines and Sunny Hostin at one point or another.
“But, I say to you people…” Navarro began, before Goldberg shut her down for good.
“Listen, hush up! Let me finish so I can close the thing up!” the EGOT winner bellowed before flashing a sly smile and slamming her cue cards on the table.
Navarro quickly laughed it off before stating that this moment would most likely make “headlines tomorrow.”
But the ladies of “The View” are no strangers to making waves in the media.
In March, Kathie Lee Gifford called out the show, confessing that she finds it a lot meaner than it once was.
While on the “Tomi Lahren Is Fearless” podcast, the television personality said the morning talk show has become more polarizing and “vicious.”
“I mean, I used to be able to go on ‘The View’ and talk to Joy [Behar] and Whoopi and a lot of the other people there — Debbie Matenopoulos and I are still good pals — and never had a problem with anybody because they weren’t trying to … I don’t proselytize everything,” Gifford continued.
While the former TV host shares her faith, she doesn’t try to push her beliefs onto anyone else.
However, if she were to go on “The View” today, Gifford doesn’t feel like her point of view would be fairly recieved.
“I mean, everybody seems like they’re just miserable people now,” she mused. “I may make people miserable just talking the way we’re talking, but nobody will ever confuse me with a miserable person, right?”
“I have joy personified,” Gifford added.
The current lineup of hosts includes Goldberg, Behar, Hostin, Navarro, Haines and Griffin.
However, over the years, past co-hosts have spoken out about their experiences at the round table.
Meghan McCain — who appeared on the show from 2017 until 2021 — revealed she quit after Behar made a nasty comment when she got back from maternity leave that January.
“I finally went back to the show, and the day I went back to the show, Joy Behar said on air, ‘Nobody missed you, we didn’t miss you, you shouldn’t have come back,’” McCain shared while on “The Commentary Magazine Podcast” in 2022.
Due to the lack of support, the political commentator exited the series.
Meanwhile, in 2021, Candace Cameron Bure — who was a cohost from 2015 to 2016 — said she has PTSD from doing the show.
While on ABC’s “Behind the Table” podcast, the actress explained that she left “The View” after President Trump was elected the first time.
“I did not want to be the punching bag for the next four years in that conservative seat,” Bure confessed, adding that it wasn’t worth the toll it took on her mental health.
