News Now:Whoopi Goldberg apologizes for telling JD Vance to ‘shut up’ about Taylor Swift

Published

on

Whoopi Goldberg is owning up to making a misstep while lambasting JD Vance for his recent comments regarding Taylor Swift.

“The View” co-host immediately corrected herself on Thursday’s episode after slamming Vance for dishing out criticism following the pop star’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris.

On Wednesday, the day after Swift shared her official support for the Democratic presidential candidate, former President Donald Trump’s running mate told Fox News that Swift is “disconnected” from most of America.

We admire Taylor Swift’s music, but I don’t think most Americans, whether they like her music or are fans of hers or not, are going to be influenced by a billionaire celebrity who I think is fundamentally disconnected from the interests and the problems of most Americans,” Vance told host Laura Ingraham.

“Look, when grocery prices go by 20%, it hurts most Americans. It doesn’t hurt Taylor Swift,” the Ohio senator doubled down. “When housing prices become unaffordable, it doesn’t affect Taylor Swift or any other billionaire. It does affect middle class Americans all over our country

Goldberg, who is famously no fan of Trump — himself a “celebrity billionaire” — was visibly activated by Vance’s remarks.

“You don’t know what affects her! You don’t know about her money! How you talking about… shut up, JD!” the 68-year-old exclaimed Thursday morning, before quickly saying, “I’m sorry, that was very rude.”
After coming back from commercial break, Goldberg addressed her apology: “The reason I apologized is because I hate when pundits tell me to shut up. It’s not a nice thing to say, so I do take it back.”

She didn’t, however, apologize for the intention behind her statement: “The implication is ‘hush.’”

During her final acceptance speech at Wednesday night’s 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, Swift took a moment to encourage her fans to vote in the upcoming election.

“The fact that this is a fan-voted award and you voted for this, I appreciate it so much,” “Fortnight” singer said. “And if you are over 18, please register to vote for something else that’s very important coming up: the 2024 presidential election.”

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has broken his silence after an explosive row with Donald Trump and JD Vance in the Oval Office: ‘Trump is not interested in Ukraine, he just wants the minerals it has. I don’t understand the US role in this at all. If Trump wants out we should get out. All of it. But somehow we go from talk of ending the war to raw materials? And chairing negotiations without key negotiators from both sides? Trumps policy on this makes no sense. Its a “business deal” in the middle of a war. We either have national security interests in this or we don’t! He should make up his mind and the policy should be to
