The View’s Whoopi Goldberg accuses co-host Ana Navarro of trying to STEAL her job with awkward sarcastic comment
THE View host Whoopi Goldberg has accused her guest co-anchor, Ana Navarro, of trying to steal her job.
The moderator, 66, has worked to shut down her fellow TV personality, 50, with an awkward, sarcastic comment.
During Thursday’s broadcast, Whoopi got a little snippy with Ana after the latter seemed to try to take the Sister Act star’s job on the show.
As the View moderator, the 66-year-old is the one in charge of running the segments and deciding when it’s time to change topics or to take a break.
Ana, though, decided to give it a try herself and tried to end a discussion by interrupting Whoopi.
After cutting off the longtime host, the 50-year-old then suggested it was time for a commercial break.

“Maybe we talk a little bit more about that when we come back,” Ana told Whoopi, giving her a little side eye.
Wanting to put her back in her place, Whoopi sarcastically asked Ana: “Oh, you wanna do this?”
Fans were shocked by the whole awkward interaction but ultimately took Whoopi’s side in the situation.
“Wow,” one fan simply wrote about it all, with another adding, “Wowie its getting hot in here.”
A third demanded: “Don’t tread on Whoopi!”
A fourth surprised fan wondered: “Does Ana want Whoopi’s job?”
“Ana, we like you but you can't take over Whoopi's job,” another insisted of the guest co-host.
This comes after Whoopi suffered a bit of a blunder while moderating Wednesday's show.
As the show returned from a prerecorded segment, her mishap was captured on TV.
While The View is mostly made up of live moments, a taped component was shown about halfway through the latest episode.
In it, one of the show’s superfans, Dominique, was surprised by an appearance from host Sunny Hostin and with getting to be in front of a studio audience.
After their prerecorded conversation finished airing, The View came back to being a live show, and Whoopi was ready to move the show along, though the teleprompter had other plans.
As the full hosting panel came into view, Whoopi started to move onto the next portion of the day’s show, saying: “So, since there’s nothing–“
The moderator abruptly cut herself off as she realized she’d made a mistake with what she was reading on the prompter.
“Oh, I guess– now, it says, ‘Sunny ad-lib,’” Whoopi read, looking confused.

Sunny helped her out, explaining: “Oh, I think they wanted me to fill everyone in [on Dominique now].”
The other co-hosts could be heard laughing about the confusion in the background.
