I have grown up my whole life watching her since literally a baby... i'm glad she is still so present 😊

[@DerickMonroe]

Thanks for watching

[@itsericanicole5243]

She is so dag on beautiful. I don’t think people understand the uniqueness of her specific beauty. Like you can tell she’s a good person.

[@momoiida5505]

Very beautiful. I've always thought that. I hate that she was disrespected about her beauty; including black people. When she accepted her NAACP Image award, she was thankful BUT, mentioned the disrespect.

[@deborahthomas3539]

She says, “black don’t crack”. She doesn’t wear any makeup. So, that helps that beautiful skin too. She can be a bi*ch when someone doesn’t agree with her. If the person is black, she won’t go after them. 🙄 That’s just the Whoppi way.

[@SipLeila]

Whoopie is not a good person. She is MEAN and has meltdowns on TV telling a viewer to GO TO HELL! I couldn't believe it. She should have been FIRED long ago.

[@singit3630]

Just had that conversation with some sisters. I have ALWAYS thought she is beautiful...even more with no makeup. She's stunning...

[@kesa7669]

I hope people can appreciate her, her beauty, or her uniqueness (more than you think they do). She should be appreciated for who she is all around.

[@LynneJordan11]

Whoopi Whoopi Whoopi. Have always loved her. So down, so real and has no “f’s” to give. This channel!! Love!

[@BJ_12]

Whoopi is a Goddess & I’ve loved her forever. Great interview Derick.

[@malibooyaw]

As a child, I loved when my grandmother would do my hair in twists because I thought it made me look like Whoopi.

[@DerickMonroe]

Too cute

[@joann1627]

[@Fluuuv]

Loved this interview. Such profound questions. Great to see this side of Whoopi.

[@ginawang2692]

There is something about her, is it her voice, her inner intelligence, her comments , what? That makes you feel comfortable and instantly like her.

[@lupelupelupe]

Whoopi was only 30 when she made Color Purple. She was 38 when she made Sister Act.

[@MM-tx7gi]

I JUST LOVE THIS GUY! HE IS REALLY AWESOME AT MAKING THE INTERVIEW FEEL LIKE WE ARE HEARING QUESTIONS THAT THE AUDIENCE WANTS TO HEAR.

[@MelodyMaker151]

I love to hear her talk about film and television history. She's so fascinating!

[@shanesapian4261]

What a fantastic interview. Whoopi is an intelligent, authentic, humble, talented and incredibly genuine human being. It is so enriching to listen to her. God Bless you Ms. Goldberg.

[@urahotmess]

I always thought Whoopi had gorgeous skin. It always looked so smooth.

[@Fordie47]

Such a lovely interview D.M. I thoroughly enjoyed it. There is something indeed beautiful within you that you could have such great chemistry with a celebrity like Whoopi Goldberg, who seems incredibly impressed by and completely open to you. Keep up the great work!

[@sekoubush755]

Thanks for sharing. Also, thanks for showing the movie clip with Joan Crawford. This will be one of my movie binge movies this weekend. I just saw your video with the three melinated hair stylist. To hear you all speak about the history of melinated hair was amazing; this could be an elective course in college called "Melinated Hair 101" also, the music light music in the background was very fitting. Can you do a show in which someone is interviewing you, so we can know your story????

[@markusmildner9140]

I simply love the fact that this interview is beautifully done in its own positive energy. By the way... this man is beyond handsome from the inside out and Whoopi an icon. Well done!

[@DerickMonroe]

Thank you for watching and commenting

[@vivianreid4575]

Great interview! Continue to speak your truth & theirs!!!

[@ItsSonya94]

New subbie! Great interview!! Keep up the good work Derick!!

[@mermaidbrothels]

I adore Whoopi so much like, I would love to pick her brain and just listen to her talk about life. She's truly such a liberated soul I just can't emphasize how admirable she is.

[@vickiebryant-harris6743]

Love, love this interview!!

[@RockwellsAccountability]

I'm on to whoopi rn and I'm learn much more then I ever got from any other interview. I learned something in this I'm still watching was commenting before I forgot. You can help your channel more by telling KZbin to give you your community wall so you can share your videos and whatever you want your subscribers to know you have going on. Sometimes KZbin send you more community post then notification for video. Lives, uploads, sometimes you don't have to be sub to a person but you'll get their video's. So get your community wall and have fun boo. After this I'm heading to raven

[@darnellmajor9016]

I swear I LOVE listening to the ''Whoopi the Person'' more than ''Whoopi the Brand''.

[@jehancapuyan523]

I wish me and whoopi see in person. Love you whoopi..God bless you.

[@christophermoore4262]

I SOO LOVE HER 🥰❤️🥰❤️

[@keithwhitson]

So good

[@ChastityStemmons]

I love Whoopi

[@kimothystorey136]

He is my interviewer skills hero- That is the kind of Interviewer I will be -reminds me of the same know-how that James Lipton did when he hosted Inside the Actors Studio. You have to know your subjects work and don't dwell on their private life- if they want to talk about their private life-they will tell you.

[@DerickMonroe]

Wow thank u

[@mancymatt1990]

I love this woman!

[@jojb411]

Will always love her

[@nikkiwashington8542]

[@jmartin4204]

[@MKD371]

Who on earth would try to discredit what this wonderful person has done and who she is?

[@sonjar9202]

WHOOPI IS GORGEOUS!!! HER SPIRIT IS Athentically HERS! I WILL SAY THUS.... JOY BEHAR IS STRAIGHT UP JEALOUS OF WHOOPI. I CANT STAND THE VIEW WITH JOY ON IT!!!

[@jmartin4204]

this interviewer gets on my last nerves . Whoopi always is dynamite she is incredible and fabulous

[@DerickMonroe]

Well as long as you like whoopi that’s all that matters

[@giordanotirelli6028]

[@CIERAMICHELLE]

[@henrybuneau577]

I always thought Whoopi Goldberg was beautiful.

[@kennyfletcher8797]

[@DerickMonroe]

[@sonyawalker6053]

Whoopi

[@Gammanoize]

lee perry is a fire lion

[@osimeon00]

Whew chile it's the ass kissing for me. Interviewers should focus on asking the pertinent questions we want to know instead of the constant obsequious praise.

[@DerickMonroe]

What did you want to know

[@kesa7669]

I love Whoopi. I feel like he is petty. Stop bringing up people who talk crap and making Whoopi big the bigger person. He keeps trying to frame things for her, is overthinking things, and trying to be deep. How many times does she have to say, I don't do it for others, who cares what other people think, if you don't know me I am not concerned about your view of me? And, why focus on her appearance so much. Talk about her as a person. Take a hint man!

[@Cebo88]

The interviewer is good looking in a gay way. Nice interview, love me some Whoopi.

[@sonjar9202]

Whoopi has a Career Catalog.... Joy? B. Walter,s dried up milk.

[@jaggass]

That's not Whoopi Goldberg that's Nile Rodgers in drag.

[@DerickMonroe]

The ugliest people have the most mouth !

[@sonjar9202]

The View is ALL Joy has. Whoopi, give JOY her ONLY CLAIM TO FAME! LoL

[@jmartin4204]

ps either way she looks ageless

[@sonjar9202]

Spelling errors.... J.O.Y. B.E.H.A.R. IS STRAIGHT UP JEALOUS OF WHOOPI! WHY? CAUSE JOY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO COMPETE!! yeah. I SAID it.... I ain't Hollywood.... something JOY wishes.....lol

[@janzebuski3559]

You really should watch the interview again and learn from it. Whoopi has a goodness and a joy of spirit. You sound very nasty and venomous- the world definitely doesn't need that especially during these times.

[@SipLeila]

Another HIDEOUS look for Whoopi is nothing new.

[@DerickMonroe]

God bless you too!😘
