The View host snags a new gig

ABC is planning something for the 25th anniversary of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella, which starred Brandy and the late Whitney Houston. Whoopi Goldberg played the role of Queen Constantina in the movie. Per Entertainment Weekly, most of the cast members will reunite for the special.

Whoopi Goldberg will join Brandy, Bernadette Peters, Jason Alexander, Paolo Montalban, Veanne Cox, and Victor Garber. The special is scheduled to air before the network will air the movie for the first time in over two decades. It has been a long-time coming for fans of the cult classic.

“We’re delighted that the 25th anniversary of this landmark incarnation of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella is being celebrated on its original network,” Imogen Lloyd Webber, SVP at Concord Theatricals told Entertainment Weekly. “Rodgers & Hammerstein’s unforgettable score is truly timeless — still enchanting listeners 80 years after their partnership began and 65 years since their Cinderella first charmed the largest audience in television history.”

This new role comes after her time on The View. Many fans have taken to social media to call for her firing. In the past week alone, Whoopi’s made many blunders. She even feuded with her co-hosts on more than one occasion.

Fans want Whoopi Goldberg fired

Whoopi Goldberg got into another heated discussion with her co-hosts. The debate made all of them passionate. She previously discussed a news story about elderly people who are still drowning in student debt decades after school.

“Listen, these are the loans you need to forgive. Because people who are in their seventies and eighties may not be making the same money they made in their fifties and sixties,” Whoopi Goldberg said. “You need to forgive this. You need to forgive this, this is ridiculous.”

Her co-host Sunny Hostin brought up the younger adults who are going through the same thing. Whoopi cut her off and said they should focus on the elderly instead. Some of the fans found the discussion “insulting.” They want the show to fire her.
