THE View star Whoopi Goldberg has hinted that she might have to miss a specific event her morning show co-hosts are planning to attend.
Whoopi didn’t seem as amped to go to Jennifer Lopez’s upcoming concert like her fellow co-hosts on The View did.

Before the morning show moderators went to a commercial break, they discussed possibly creating a dance routine for them to perform for Jennifer when she returns to The View.
The View executive producer Brian Teta, 47, encouraged the hosts to “start rehearsing now” since the I’m Real singer would be revisiting the talk show prior to her summer tour.
Alyssa Farah Griffin, 34, and Sunny Hostin, 55, revealed that they were open to doing a choreographed routine; meanwhile, Ana Navarro, 52, admitted that she wasn’t.
“I’m gonna be sitting watching [Jennifer] on stage. I’m going to her concert. I’m not dancing,” Ana bluntly stated.

After Ana’s revelation, her co-stars Sunny and Sara Haines, 46, expressed interest in attending the award-winning entertainer’s concert with the former CNN strategist.
“Whoopi in?” Brian asked from off-camera.
The EGOT titleholder declined, telling him: “I’m not here. Remember, I’m working. You know what I’m doing.”
MAJOR MOVES
Her break might give her time to work on her other business ventures.

Whoopi plans to release a brand new memoir this year.
Bits and Pieces: My Mother, My Brother, and Me will be released on May 7, 2024.
The Blackstone Publishing book will chronicle Whoopi’s life, career, and family, in her own words, although it is only semi-autobiographical.
“This book is dedicated to my mother and my brother and our time together as a small, funny little unit. It’s dedicated to anyone who’s found themselves on a scary path not of their choosing or dealing with loss,” The ABC anchor told People in an exclusive statement.
“This book is dedicated to everyone who is just trying to figure out the small stuff as well as the stuff where you have to be more than you thought you could be and it’s dedicated to love.”
Whoopi grew up in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City.
She will tell stories of her mother, Emma Harris, who died in 2010, and her older brother, Clyde K. Johnson, who died in 2015.
“The book will serve as a way for the author to preserve the memories of her loved ones on the page,” People said.
