The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg has no time for right-wing commentators pouring scorn and outrage upon the new Barbie movie.A committed Barbie fan, Goldberg turned up on The View yesterday sporting Barbie-decorated platform soles on her shoes.
She also mocked criticism from those on the right about the movie.“It’s a movie!” she exclaimed on the show. “It’s a movie about a doll!”“I thought y’all would be happy,” she continued. “[Barbie] has no genitalia, so there’s no sex involved.
Ken has no genitalia, so he can’t — it’s a doll movie! And the kids know it’s colorful and it’s Barbie.”Goldberg went on to say that little kids do not view a movie in the same way, or through the same lens, as adults.CONSERVATIVE OUTRAGE OVER 'BARBIE' MOVIE: Although Hollywood hit big at the box office with the premiere of #Barbie and #Oppenheimer, #TheView co-hosts react to #Barbie backlash from some.
