    I delivered food to Whoopie a few years back..She was so nice, and took a selfie with me, and left a very nice tip. She told me at first, no im not whoopie, I just look like whoopie.😅😅

    I saw her walking into a restaurant in New Jersey a few months ago. I just smiled and nodded and she smiled that famous smile right back. Later, as I was eating at my table, someone patted my back as they walked by. I looked up and it was Whoopi, who again smiles on her way out of the place. She seemed like a very sweet lady.

    Great interview. Don Lemon is a great interviewer. And both Don and Whoopi were vulnerable.

    I lost my father in 1999. I was young. He was old and sick but an amazing father. Fatherlessness, is brutal too. Both beautiful people.

    Whoopi really did change my life. At 21, (1985, I'll be 60 this year) when her HBO special came out, SHE SHIFTED THE PLANET FOR MY BRAIN! She is so insightful. Now I see where it originates. HER FAMILY. :) Hugs. And BRAVO to you @DonLemon! We took at photo at the NATIVE SON AWARDS last year and I want a copy of that photo. It's on YOUR PHONE LOL

    Watching Whoopi talk about not remembering people when they walk up on you. When people come up to and say Do you remember me?? My standard line is "Probably not, but I hope we had a good time.' 😅
