The Whoopi Goldberg War Room™ has detected a new international threat: Cyber terrorists using the actress' image to hawk faulty weight-loss supplements!

Following historic battles with the creators of the Diablo video game franchise, an army of invading cacti, and "really dumb" questions written for her by The View staff, Goldberg's unofficial military has apparently added an entity of unknown origin to its watchlist after the Oscar-winning Ghost actress took aim at those using her AI-generated likeness to sell products online

[OriginalChristian]

Oof, there’s barely enough eye wash to cover seeing her likeness on the Spew. Is there enough on the planet to wash from this? Doubtful...

[bray]

How long have you been blind?

[laweeks]

Can't imagine who'd want her image.

[Cobra64]

Well, there is one thing AI cannot do:

It cannot make her any more ugly.

[Jamestown1630]

I thought she was cute and very engaging in ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’ and ‘Sister Act’.

[metmom]

Who would take advice from a media figure?

Only a fool. Let them.

[TornadoAlley3]

Could sell Whoopi Cushions

[Jamestown1630]

Not to compare Goldberg to them, but Reagan and Trump were both ‘media figures’, and they’ve both done their share of hawking products.

Media figures are not all stupid.

[heavy metal]

goodyear has been flying an image of her in american skies for years...

tru dat

[Loud Mime]

Whoopie and weight loss products? About as believable as her advertising for Hillsdale College.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Anyone in their right mind would buy a product endorsed by Whoopi from the View (aka the Zoo)? Horse blanket, Cow CO2 arrester, premium horse shoes, celebrity horse dewormer, ...?

[jmcenanly]

Only if they use her current picture as the “Before” picture.

Once again it’s all about ME, ME, ME,ME, ME, ME,ME, ME, ME...

STFU poopygoldbrick !!!
