New Yorkers aren’t letting Whoopi Goldberg’s sourpuss spoil their favorite spot for sweet treats, after she put a local bakery on blast on national TV, alleging they refused to serve her because of her lefty political beliefs.
“I think it’s ridiculous. Why would she come all the way to Staten Island for her cupcake? To make an issue? They’ve been here forever,” Deborah Bernaz, 68, said of the comic’s claims against the beloved 145-year old Holtermann’s Bakery on Staten Island.
“I don’t think it has anything to do with politics. They’re a little Staten Island bakery. I think it’s bulls–t what she’s saying. Leave politics out of the bakery,”
The actress and “The View” co-host went into full victim mode on Wednesday’s broadcast, grousing that Holtermann’s wouldn’t sell her the Charlotte Russe desserts she wanted to celebrate her 68th birthday on the show because of her “politics.”
“Now, I should tell you, Charlotte Russe has no political leanings, and the place that made these refused to make them for me,” Goldberg said, prompting aghast reactions from the audience and co-hosts.
“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.”
“They did not like my politics,” she said without evidence.
But Holtermann’s loyal customers told The Post they weren’t buying her claims.
**SNIP**
“She can basically put a place out of business by saying those comments live like that. It’s absolutely ridiculous.”

“If I owned a business, I wouldn’t serve her either. Sounds like a good slander case to me.”
I have a rule in my consulting business, I refuse to do work for stupid people.
It works.
1. Complete fabrication by Whoopi
2. Demanded it for free since she's a celebrity.
3. Wanted it delivered all the way to Manhattan.
4. Wanted a huge order on short notice.
5. They've dealt with her before and she got on the "No donut for you!” list.
6. Her endocrinologist called them first.
I don’t know why she would complain, she would do the same thing. She didn’t complain when Sarah Huckabee’s family was kicked out of a restaurant in Virginia..............
And As far as I know, it’s perfectly legal to do so on the basis of politics, not race, religion or other .....................
I doubt that she even bathes.
Wasn’t she married to Ted Danson?
Can you imagine what it smelled like walking into the bathroom after her on your honeymoon?
Now I want a Canoli.
What is it with the Left’s obsession for bakers? Sheesh.
Whoopie Smollet.
LOL, that probably cuts out 50% of ones business.
it’s the type of business you DON’T want.
At least I do not.
Have a great weekend, FRiend.
Recall Gibson’s Bakery defamed by Oberlin administrators as racist? They won a 36m judgement.
That has a nice ring to it. I hope it sticks
Sue Whoopi and Sue Disney as well.
Do they sell Babka? Cinnamon Babka?!
If anything, the store employees probably wouldn’t sell her any pastries because they were concerned about her health. She is an absolute fatso “ready-to-burst”.
Yep, sue Whoopi and ABC
Just had a big press conference outside the store documenting that Whoopie made a false defamatory claim.
Which means you do not accept a large order because you MAY (or may not) be able to deliver.
Whoopi Goldberg will call the customers racists and bigots and nazi’s etc etc.
