The View” was halted after a mysterious crashing noise offstage drew the attention of all five hosts. “Welcome to ‘The View,’ y’all,” longtime host Whoopi Goldberg said at the top of the show. She introduced the first segment: “So, yesterday, a federal court ruled that the Biden administration can not use a 1986 emergency care law that would require Texas hospitals to provide abortions for women whose lives are at risk due to pregnancy.” “So they’re OK with forced childbirth — even if it kills someone, because they’re so pro-life.
What about all of that,” Goldberg, 68, continued, before a loud metallic crash was heard off-camera. “Speaking of pro-life,” fellow panelist Alyssa Farah Griffin said. “We just lost someone.” “Sorry, that was dark,” Farah Griffin, 34, added, pointing to the audience where the sound appeared to come from.
In an effort to bring the conversation back on topic, Goldberg joked that it was her “last egg” falling. The Post reached out to “The View” for additional comment. This is not the first time odd noises have disrupted the daytime talk show.
Nearly one year ago, during a serious discussion about classified documents found at former Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home, a drink spilled and began dripping over the side of the table. Goldberg pointed out the beverage to co-host Sara Haines, 46, who attempted to move her chair, resulting in her mike picking up what sounded to be a fart. In March, Goldberg caused the entire show to erupt into a fit of giggles after the EGOT winner accidentally passed some gas while chatting on the show.
