BREAKING NEWS: Whoopi Goldberg laughs at Elon Musk on “The View” for only giving out $5,000 to people. She says, “If I were you, I’d give….”-bb

In a moment that could only happen on daytime TV’s most unhinged gabfest, Whoopi Goldberg unleashed a cackle heard ‘round the world on The View this morning, tearing into billionaire Elon Musk for what she called his “chump change” $5,000 giveaways. The EGOT-winning host, perched atop her moderator’s throne like a queen surveying a peasant revolt, reportedly guffawed, “Elon’s out here tossing $5,000 like it’s a big deal? Honey, if I were you, I’d give every American a gold-plated Tesla and a lifetime supply of Sister Act DVDs—now that’s a flex!”

The outburst came during a heated segment—because when isn’t it?—where the panel dissected Musk’s latest stunt: handing out $5,000 checks to random X users who pledge allegiance to his interplanetary empire or something equally dystopian. Our exclusive source—a studio intern who claims Whoopi once tipped them with a half-eaten bagel—says Goldberg doubled over laughing mid-rant, wheezing, “Five grand? That won’t even cover my wig budget for a week! Elon, call me when you’re ready to drop real cash—like, say, a billion per person. Then we’ll talk!”

Whoopi Goldberg Makes a Bold Declaration About Elon Musk's 'Actual'  Political Role

Co-hosts Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin piled on, with Behar snarking, “Elon’s so cheap, he’d probably charge us for the oxygen on Mars,” while Hostin adjusted her glasses and quipped, “Legally speaking, $5,000 isn’t even a rounding error in his tax write-offs.” Meanwhile, token conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin tried to defend Musk, muttering, “At least he’s giving something,” only to be drowned out by Whoopi’s next zinger: “Yeah, and I’m giving my opinion for free—doesn’t mean it’s worth much!”

 

The studio audience erupted in a mix of cheers, gasps, and one guy yelling “Tesla sucks!”—prompting security to escort him out, allegedly at Musk’s remote command via satellite. Backstage, our source claims Whoopi kept the shade flowing, muttering, “Elon’s out here playing Santa with pocket lint while I’m schooling him from a soundstage. Who’s the real visionary now?” She then reportedly pitched her own giveaway idea: “Forget $5,000—I’d drop $50 million per viewer, plus a free trip to see me perform stand-up. Elon wishes he had my swagger!”

Whoopi Goldberg to Leave Twitter After Elon Musk Takes Over App

Musk, never one to let a slight slide, fired back on X within minutes, posting: “Whoopi’s just mad her show’s ratings wouldn’t buy a Cybertruck tire. $5K is a start—wait ‘til I give away Mars real estate.” The clapback sparked a firestorm online, with #WhoopiVsElon trending as fans duked it out: Musk stans called Goldberg “a washed-up has-been,” while View loyalists countered with “Elon couldn’t handle Whoopi’s dreads, let alone her takes!”

 

Adding fuel to the circus, Goldberg was allegedly spotted after the taping at a Manhattan deli, autographing pastrami sandwiches for fans while ranting, “Elon’s $5,000 is an insult—I’d give away his whole net worth just to see him squirm!” Witnesses say she then hopped into a stretch limo blaring “I Will Follow Him” from Sister Act, leaving onlookers wondering if this feud’s headed for a pay-per-view showdown—or at least a viral TikTok dance-off.

 

What’s next? Will Musk up the ante with a $6,000 check just to flex? Will Whoopi counter with a pledge to buy everyone a private island? Or will ABC execs just pray this all blows over before Joy Behar challenges Elon to a cage match? One thing’s clear: this clash of titans is peak 2025 chaos—and we’re here for every petty, over-the-top second of it.

 

Stay tuned, folks. This tea’s hotter than a Tesla battery fire—and twice as messy.
