It’s Official: Whoopi Gets The View, Sherri Shepherd Doesn’t

It’s Official: Whoopi Gets The View, Sherri Shepherd Doesn’t - PIC

The View made the official announcement today that Whoopi Goldberg is the new host to replace Rosie O’Donnell. However, Sherri Shepherd did not make the cut. Apparently the negotiations went awry when Sherri tried to get the same pay Whoopi was promised: $2 million. “They just couldn’t work out the money part of it,” an insider tells In Touch. “They weren’t willing to pay Sherri what she was asking for.”

Although the negotiations with Sherri aren’t necessarily over, In Touch reports that The View has also resumed its conversation with former CNN news anchor and syndicated radio host Jacque Reid, who has guest-hosted more than six times. Barbara and the other producers are committed to adding a fifth host to The View before the new season begins on September 4.

The saga continues… Now will Barbara just get it over with and call Kathy Griffin already?
