After weeks of inactivity on the fainting front, Whoopi Goldberg has officially collapsed on The View once again.
The EGOT-winning actress (and great seer of unknown supernatural entities wafting through The View‘s studio) mounted her latest physical stunt on Wednesday’s episode, as she struggled to get through a particularly excruciating Hot Topics chat about age gaps in celebrity relationships.
As she often does when cueing up a discussion point she’s unenthused about, Goldberg introduced the segment in her signature, affected valley girl accent as she delivered news about actress Sienna Miller pushing back against criticism over age differences among famous couples.

“Will it ever change? Will we continue to see older guys with younger women? What the hell is going to happen? I throw it in your direction, I’m on my way to Mallorca,” Goldberg said as she checked out entirely.
Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines, and Joy Behar picked up the discussion, with the camera picking up shots of Goldberg’s head slowly lowering to her hands — at first, it was one hand, then two.

Then, as things dragged on, Goldberg could be seen recoiling and wincing in her chair — and, at one point, fully collapsing backward in protest.
After gripping the table for dear life, Goldberg replied to Behar’s question, “What if you need an organ?” adding before the commercial break: “I say, wait for the orgasm. We’ll be right back.”

Today’s collapse is, by far, not the first time Goldberg has feigned losing consciousness at the Hot Topics table. Various other chats have contributed to Goldberg tapping out, including Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, remarks about Donald Trump, and coverage of the Real Housewives franchise.
Goldberg also once collapsed in honor of Entertainment Weekly, as she looked toward the audience in December and said, “This is for Entertainment Weekly,” before descending down toward the table’s surface.
In an amusing showcase of her Oscar-winning skills on the big screen, Goldberg even once stood up from — and then fell down — on the table during a June 2025 discussion about Sean Combs.
The View airs weekdays on ABC.
