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.

you noticed it what on earth did you look at people or their color from the get go?
UK has hardly and y whites compared to us and so what only a racist would look for color
But their mailman was there. So- it was not all elitist. Not to mention it was William and (now Katherine) Kate’s wedding. It must have been a horrific realization that the ignorant broads on The View did not control the show.
I'm not saying he and his Wife were there, but he did take the last two days off and only announced it at the end of Wednesday's Show.
Coincidence????? Is this how Internet rumors get started? LOL
“I didn’t see any.”
You racist SOB.
Its crazy how they let us live in these little towns without any black folks.
I was not looking for any- I was just watching some of the footage- including the I forget his title that was turning cartwheels. Course I left my pencil and notepad in the bathroom so I could not have tallied any if I had tried.
What is it about these Liberal Racebaiting morons?They have to bring race into everything the see or do.They must have very miserable lives.
I imagine she meant "the Cavalry guy." The Calvary guy isn't black, he's Jewish.
You have to have a certain % of black people at your OWN wedding? I seriously doubt it. Who wrote that law? What’s the penalty?
‘..crazy how they let us live in these little towns...’
‘course we have to work for our keep which tends to help keep the riffraff out
those ladies of the View need to take a Zoloft and get a nap..everything has to be Racist since Obama hit the scene.
Hey, where were the Mexicans and the American Indians? That woman has a serious case of head-up-posterioritus.
Eugenie and Beatrice DID look like moo-cows in hats. Their outfits and their hats were amazingly awful (even compared to the many other truly awful hats I saw today!!). I don’t know who let them out of the house like that.
What I really noticed, in terms of who was missing from the guest list, was high-profile Americans. Did anyone from our administration show up to represent us? Was anyone invited? I watched BBC America so maybe they just didn’t show the Yanks. If anyone saw any Americans, I’d like to hear about it!
As for Kate, I thought she looked lovely (except that her decision to do her own makeup showed — her lips were so pale that she looked scared to death! LOL!). Beautiful dress. Very “Sound of Music.” :) And I liked Will’s red uniform. Nice spot of color in that big cathedral. Worked for me.
“Where are the black people?”
They are watching the NBA finals.
You know, last Sunday, when I saw the footage of Chairman Barry, Me!chelle and their Wee Wons at Church, the only WHITE people I noted were a couple of Secret Services agents. EVERYONE else was Black...rut roh...does that mean the “Os” are raaaaaacist?
I think I deleted my spiel about black weddings. I've been to one. I didn't take a head count of how many of who.
Then I wondered how many anybodies are invited to the elite weddings in America. I would never expect to be, and can't say it bothers me a whole lot. I wasn't invited to my niece's wedding because it was upper crust, and my family's presence would have embarassed them, and it was known that I wouldn't have been able to travel there anyway. So I sent her a nice present anyway. I have good social manners but don't dress the part because I no longer care about that.
I really get along well with most black people, some I don't, and really like the ones I like a lot. I wish the agitators would leave us alone about it. I grew up in the north, and there was racism only not as bad in the south.
I've also attended black churches a couple of times and felt accepted to be there. And a whole whole whole lot more I won't bother anybody with.
I'm sorry I made you angry, but white people can be sensitive about things, too.
There’s only one black family here but they’re Americans first and foremost.
“Its crazy how they let us live in these little towns without any black folks.”
Fear not, CHANGE is coming.
“Well I have that beat.”
I have that beat, as well.
I’m just not at liberty to talk about it, right now...
I’m not sad at all. They invited the sodomite Elton John and his “partner” to help with “diversity”. I hope that makes you feel better.
