Never mind who wore what, the View's Sherri Shepherd had another burning question about the Royal Wedding today.
'Where are the black people?' the outspoken actress, 44, asked as the panellists as they critiqued Prince William and Kate Middleton's ceremony.
The star said she had earlier searched through the footage of guests at Westminster Abbey.
'Audrey Jones our producer was looking for the black people in the wedding and we found our Rosa Parks moment, because we were like 'where are the black people'?' she said.
'It was like where's Waldo, where are the black people?' she added.
'We found one little black child in the choir but where's the black people at this wedding?' she continued.
'Wait a minute the Calvary guy, from New York,' said Goldie Hawn, 65, who was a guest host for the day.
'Well the guests, there they are,' said Sherri, pointing to a screen showing a small group of black people in the congregation.
'They are segregated but they are at the front so we have our Rosa Parks moment,' she added referring to the African-American civil rights activist Rosa Parks who refused to obey a bus driver's order to give up her seat for a white passenger on December 1, 1955.
'I don't know why they put all the black people over here but they are at the front of the wedding so I ain't complaining, they got in the front,' added Sherri.
The women also mocked the Queen and the dresses of princesses Eugenie and Beatrice.

More “racers” blabbing their idiot mouths.
Please set out a saucer of chocolate milk.
anyone looking for color or diversity is the racist as they can only see color not people
Hey, we've been doing that all day here! Guys, too!
I didn’t see any rednecks either.
William and Kate probably had no idea that their wedding was supposed to be all about Sherri Shepherd.
Racist. Pure and simple racist.
We know why one half black wasn’t there...NOT INVITED!
Where were all the Chinese?
It’s funny—when I watched the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament, I didn’t say, “Where are the white people?”
Sherri should stick to what she’s good at, stuffing her face
Africa.
The “black people” apparently had the good sense to stay home and not be bored to death.
Where the white women at?
I wasn’t aware you had to invite people you don’t know to a wedding just because of their skin color. I wonder how many black weddings have token whities sitting in the pews just to look fair and balanced.
Geesh
Traditional Nigerian wedding. Where are the white people?
I have no idea how many black Britons were invited to the wedding. But the PMs of Jamaica, Barbados, Bermuda and several other Caribbean, African and Pacific member countries of the Commonwealth were in the front rows as invited guests at the Abbey and at the wedding reception following in Buckingham Palace.
What does skin color have to do with anything?..
Blacks are not needed or required.. except in a marriage of two black people..
I hate score keepers.
