Whoopi Goldberg was born Caryn Johnson in New York City. Her mother, a nurse and teacher, raised her daughter and a son on her own after Whoopi's preacher father left the family. The future سٹار, ستارہ spent the first years of her life in a public housing project in Manhattan. Drawn to the theater from earliest childhood, she made her performing debut at age eight with the Helena Rubinstein Children's Theatre at the Hudson Guild. After dropping out of high school at 14, she lied about her age to find work as a summer camp counselor, and singing in the choruses of the Broadway shows Hair, Jesus Christ...

"I knew as soon as I hit that light, I was waving>> It's as much a part of my whole being as breathing. I always knew this was it. I didn't know it was going to be like this, آپ know. But I always knew that I wanted to act.
I grew up in a time when it would never have occurred to anyone to tell me there was anything I couldnt do. آپ know, I grew up in a time when the country was very pro the people who lived in it. That's why as many changes were able to happen, the March on Washington came into reality. People really believed that they had a stake in the country. So there were all kinds of Invitations to make the country better. So there was never for me, anyone saying, "No, you're going to fail," یا "No, there's no place for you." The only thing my mom ever کہا to me was,"It may be tough, but what isn't?"
"I hate people expecting me to be مزید than I am. Expecting me to live up to their expectations, when perhaps I can't. People forgetting that I get cranky, and I get crabby, and I dont always want to be Whoopi Goldberg. Somedays I'm just not in the mood.

The lack of privacy is tough. I went to the bathroom once and people followed me in, and a lady put her hand up under the stall with a pen and a piece of paper, کہا she wanted my autograph, I said, could I just finish what Im doing first? So sometimes...

I found out that I was dyslexic when I was a grown woman. When I was a kid they didnt call it dyslexic. They called it... آپ know, آپ were slow, یا آپ were retarded, یا whatever.

And so, I learned from a guy who was running a program who I met one دن and he had written out on a board a sentence. And I کہا to him, "You know, I cant read that." And he said,"why not?" And I said,"Because it doesnt make any sense to me." So he said,"Well, write down what آپ see under each letter. Whatever you...

You know, be an actor because آپ love to act. Don't be an actor because آپ think you're going to get famous, because that's luck. But if it's what آپ want to do with your whole دل and your whole soul, come on.

A debate that broke out on “The View” last week was so heated, that it caused a whole lot of commotion and backlash following its airing. The ladies of “The View” had been discussing the “N” word, which led to a debate over whether the word could be used in any context.


Whoopi Goldberg tried to explain to Elizabeth Hasselbeck, why it was okay for black people to use the word, but not white people. Hasselbeck, making the point that we should be moving towards a world in which we are all the same, made the point that she didn’t think it was okay for anybody to use the word.

ارے guys,
Its been awhile since I updated the Whoopi page...tries to cover eyes...TWO YEARS.. but ill try to do my best as of today..

Anyway the latest latest that had people talking was that Whoopi finally was on The Oprah Winfrey دکھائیں to celebrate The Color Purple's Anniversary!
It was a great دکھائیں indeed but alot of attention was دیا to Whoopi herself as Oprah set about to answer a few سوالات سے طرف کی Oprah..

The one that had me cracking up was that all these years, Oprah thought that Whoopi had a problem with her and Whoopi thought the same! Now I must say I myself thought this was the case...

Every time I look
Into your lovely eyes
I see a love that money
Just can't buy

One look from آپ
I drift away
I pray that آپ
Are here to stay

REFRAIN :
Anything آپ want
آپ got it
Anything آپ need
آپ got it
Anything at all
آپ got it
Baby

Every time I hold آپ
I begin to understand
Everything about آپ
Tells me [I'm your best friend]

I live my life
To be with آپ
No one can do
The things آپ do

REFRAIN

I'm glad to give
My love to آپ
I know آپ feel
The way I do

Well, if anyone ever asked me that question, I would answer سے طرف کی saying that it is because she truly inspires me to be who I am. When anyone hear of her, they normally turn their faces away in disgust, but have آپ ever read her life story, یا even truly considered who she really is inside out? No. All people do is critise her and say that she's ugly. I think she is beautiful outside and inside because she has done so much to be read that way. Not only speaking as a huge fan, but to me, she's done so much to be recognised in America and all over the world.
Well, why I say that she inspires me is because she has shown us how far acting can go and how standing up for your rights is important. She is so kool and she speaks her mind, which is sometimes harsh, but when we consider it, someone should have کہا it sometime.
So if آپ have a problem wid her, zip it up cuz its not going to hurt her in anyway because I wanna see آپ achieve what she did and do what she did in life.
