“The View” co-host Whoopi Goldberg did not further address the back-and-forth between herself and a Staten Island bakery, during “The View” on Monday, after she accused the bakery of denying her service over her politics.
Goldberg and her co-hosts celebrated her 69th birthday on Wednesday with Charlotte Russe desserts, a nostalgic New York treat. Goldberg told the audience her birthday order had almost fallen through due to what she claimed was the bakery’s objection to her left-wing political stance.
“They said that their ovens had gone down, all kinds of stuff, but folks went and got them anyway, which is why I’m not telling you who made them,” said Goldberg. She suggested they might have denied the order because “they did not like my politics.”
The bakery was later identified as Holtermann’s Bakery, a 145-year-old family-owned establishment on Staten Island, by examining the Charlotte Russe desserts themselves.
