The View fans shocked as Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar 'forget their mics are on’ in awkward moment live on air | The Sun
THE View fans were shocked when Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar managed to "forget their mics were on" in an awkward moment live on the air.
During the most recent installment of The View, host Sunny Hostin, 53, promoted her upcoming appearance at Martha's Vineyard African American film festival.
On August 12th, the ABC star announced she would be moderating a panel for Whoopi Goldberg's new movie Till.
Sunny will be appearing with Till director Chinonye Chukwu.
While Sunny provided details about the tickets and the festival's website, Joy jumped in and asked Whoopi a question.
Joy Behar, 79, shouted, "Wait!" without realizing her mic was not off.
Whoopi responded to the side conversation: "No, I'm going to be here," and started laughing with her co-star.
A upset viewer noticed the on-air blunder and tweeted about the rude interruption: "Sunny almost got through all of that announcement on #TheView.
"Until the closer details were muffled by a much louder conversation by Whoopi and Joy."
The viewer closed with: "They are still forgetting their mics are always on. #HotTopics."
