Popular American actress cum TV personality Whoopi Goldberg has sincerely apologised for using a Romanian ethnic slur on the recently aired episode of ‘The Wiew’.
Recall that on the recently aired episode of The View, the famous TV personality had a weak moment when she used the words “he got gy*****” in reference to former US president Donald Trump.
This was during a discussion on Trump when she said that some of his supporters believe “he got ‘gy****d’ somehow in the election” where she could have just said ‘cheated’.

Less than an hour after the live show aired, Goldberg offered an apology online. She said;
“You know, when you’re a certain age, you use the words that you know from when you were a kid or you remember saying, and that’s what I did today, and I shouldn’t have.
“I should’ve thought about it a little longer before I said it, but I didn’t. And I should’ve said I cheated, but I used another word, and I’m really, really sorry.” Goldberg added.
