Following a contentious argument about the widely shared video of Miranda Lambert berating concertgoers, Whoopi Goldberg left the ABC television series The View set.
The comedian was in the middle of debating the viral moment when Miranda Lambert stopped singing her hit song “Tin Man” in the middle of her performance to reprimand a group of audience girls for taking selfies when she was performing. Sarah Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin were also present when Whoopi got up and left.
“Even though they came to see her and paid for tickets, they don’t want to be there. Whoopi stated, “So if she’s singing, show her at least a little respect so that you know you can see her and she can see you too.”
The co-hosts, however, disagreed with her viewpoint.
“I’m not at all divided on this. The $757 tickets in the VIP area they were in are pricey. Whoopi left after Sunny declared, “I’m going to take as many selfies as I want if I paid $757.”
When she saw a ninety-one-year-old woman and stopped to snap a selfie with her, the audience laughed as she exited the room. because I would like a photo with this amazing ninety-one-year-old woman. We shall so take a selfie. You and I together.
Tragic house explosion claims lives of two beloved brothers
In a tragic occurrence in Defiance, Missouri, a house explosion claimed the lives of two young boys.
Julian Keiser, four, and Jamison Keiser, six, died when their home caught fire on Friday morning. Grieving neighbors and community members remembered them as the “nicest little boys” who brought joy to all who knew them.
Evelyn Turpiano, the boys’ mother, and their grandparents, Jennifer and Vern Ham, were able to escape the burning home and reach safety. Unfortunately, the severity of the fire made it impossible for firefighters to reach Julian and Jamison in time. Despite a concerted effort from the community, rescue attempts were unsuccessful. The cause of the explosion remains under investigation.
The Hoffmann Family of Companies, based in Florida and owners of the property where the tragedy occurred, has extended their condolences to the family as a show of support. Known for their active involvement in the local community, the Hoffmanns have been working to transform the region into the Midwest’s Napa Valley by acquiring wineries and eateries.
To support the grieving family through their devastating loss, a GoFundMe campaign has been set up. So far, more than $145,000 has been raised, reflecting the tremendous support from friends, neighbors, and even strangers. The funds will help cover funeral expenses and aid the family in rebuilding their lives after the loss of their home and possessions.
In a show of solidarity, the Defiance community has rallied around the grieving family. Laura Emerson, a local resident, commemorated the boys by placing a Christmas wreath on a water pump near the charred remains of their home. She adorned the wreath with two stuffed animals to celebrate the boys’ joyful spirits and the love they brought to others.
We are so very sorry for this devastating loss. May these loving boys rest in peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with the grieving family.
