Whoopie is great and honest. She didn’t have to say anything. She was bearing her soul. How could people be so heartless as to beat her down for what she herself has beaten. Live the life of an addict or the family of an addict before you speak. Otherwise, just enjoy the day. Life is too short to try to dis on people who don’t even impact you or your life. I will STILL and ALWAYS watch the View.
Why would I want to live the life of an addict?! That is like saying feel sorry for the poor child molester and don’t criticize them until you have molested yourself! You are a Dumb*ss
i never liked whoopi after backing vick on the dog killings,as a matter of fact i can’t stand her and change the channel when i see her face. go play ball with vick
Whoopi just wanted to get her picture in the paper again.
Whoopi said that she thought Ted Danson was under her bed, so she pooped and wet herself….Can’t blame her I’d do the same thing if I thought ted Danson was under my bed.
I admire Whoopi and her seemingly sincere attempt to get the attention of the people. It has been almost a year. Sheen did not listen then and no one is listening to him now. Downy came back and perhaps Sheen will too. I hope that he and millions of other addicts out there find a Way Back to Wholeness and Health. In any event Sheen has had a good run. My hope is that regular folk who hear what Whoopi discloses will be shocked enough to seek help if they need it. This year CDC announced that Substance Abuse is the number one health problem for young people in this country. IT IS NO JOKE. If you or someone you know is experiencing difficulty with drugs and or alcohol CALL FOR HELP.
