Billy Crystal revealed afterwards that he and Robin Williams watched the show and kept calling each other to comment on what a good job she was doing. Awesome friends.
Whoopi was one of my favorite movie stars growing up. I loved her as the Oscars host too--she's so naturally charismatic and funny, and has the epic presence to calmly face that giant audience the way many younger hosts have been unable to do. Whoopi is a true star~~
that is true but I have more respect for her as she's a woman speaking and living within her truth. opposite of some of celebrities that's nothing but pop culture and mainstream media puppets. not having a mind has more consequences
Not bigger? You do realize she is a GOD..... You can't get much higher than she has. She has been speaking her mind with zero apology, and total disregard for anyone else's opinion since she was about 18 doing spoken word and slam poetry. She has earned sitting back and chilling with a talk show....
It says so much how so many of the issues she mentioned are still massive issues today. Like some of those things - nothing has been done about them in more than 20 years.
As an Australian ... There is a lot I will never understand about America and Americans ... Especially the politics!!! BUT Whoopie is amazing, funny, real, honest, a woman of principles, so intelligent and compassionate! So .... There must be a lot that is good and right about America to be able to produce such a damn fine lady!
Blazesis Whoopie was horrid. I'm tired of the 'host' trying to take allthe spotlight........they are a host, not a fashion plate, not the star of theevening, not taking stupid selfies, ......where is Bob Hope when you need him.?
blognewb I did get his jokes. I'm familiar with the American culture, racial issues for a long time. (Actually in this clip Whoopi has some jojes that I don't get, about some people I don't know, lol) So I did get the jokes and there were some good ones, but making jokes about one thing for 4 hours? That is boring.
Gábor Vág Chris Rock ridiculed black people all throughout as well, He didn't coddle them, even insulted Will Smith et al. It's the white people who feel insecure about how minorities - Asians, Hispanics, Blacks, Natives - have been feeling in daily life being the only minority in every workplace.
blognewb That was my other problem, he didn't mention Asians, Hispanics. He only talked about blacks as diversity. At least I don't recall any jokes about not awarding asian, hispanic etc. actors. And actually the Will Smith/Jada joke was the best, cause I found it funny that Jada Pinkett started to talk about this issue. I mean okay, at least someone started it, but if it was Viola Davis, it would've been much better, cause she's a great talent. Jada, not so much.
Gábor Vág He made fun of Asians being stereotyped as good in maths and accounting and how such is detrimental to pressures of being an Asian kid upholding such stereotype when many Asians are average or have zero interest in accounting. He also made fun of their names. At this point, you are nit picking to justify your subjective dislike of the hosting clouded by the inherent issue.
I can watch Whoopi all day and night!!!! Not only she is amazing at acting and joking, but she can dress freaking sexy!!!! I can see why Patrick Swayze liked her so much!! She's such a freaking Queen!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Whoopi is 57 years old and looks incredible for her age. What is a 57 year old grandmother and host of The View suppose to look like? Everyone can't look like Elisabeth Hasselbeck or Barbara Walters. Whoopi has dated and even married some of the most incredible actors, producers, execs and directors in Hollywood. Proving that Diana Ross looks are not what men are looking for! Whoopi proves that being yourself counts for something! She still has it, because of this people find her interesting!
"The Color Purple", "Ghost", "Corrina Corrina", "Sister Act 1 & 2", "The Associate"......Have you ever seen "Corrina Corrina & The Associate"?? They are 2 of her best films I think. Totally underatted and forgotten unfortunately.
Knowing she had a migrane during hosting, I admire her for the strength she had. I suffer from migraines too and I am bed bound. Very inspiring lady 🥹❤️
If I would ever meet Whoopi up on stage for everything she said as she was hosting, I would just break down into tears and sweat my ass off damn she was funny😂
She looked fabulous here! And that dress! Perfection.
Year 2018 Sebastian.Back
Yess She is always fabulously beautiful❤❤❤
Whoopie in her prime.
Yeah! Loved The fact she is no using a spensive neckhless.....Just perfect. Less is more!She shine's for her self! 🌟🌟🌟
Billy Crystal revealed afterwards that he and Robin Williams watched the show and kept calling each other to comment on what a good job she was doing. Awesome friends.
setheurovision94 i cried my eyes out
robbin williams and billy crystal are the most brothers in history of comedy
I love Billy Crystal! Whoopi looked regal in this!
Was she the first woman to host? First black person too??
Yep, yesterday i saw that clip
"That's why they hired me, honey!" She slays
It's so sad that all the things Whoopi was advocating for, are things we're still fighting for today.
What?
True!
The irony is that she’s now the establishment. Smears liberals and promotes moderates on her shitty show
Makes you wonder how much progress we have made in 26 years.
26 years later and here we are :(
Damn she brought up every single thing that has been talked about in 2018-2019 politically wise

Whoppi is the greatest. Spending a lovely evening watching all her Oscar performances on youtube. Her and Billy would be SO great as Oscar co-hosts.
Man she was so good at hosting, funny but naturally..
The realest person in Hollywood
whom is that?
If she's the realest person in Hollywood, we're in trouble!
Agree 100%
Too natural

Innit!
I wouldn't have her clean my house!!

Vi Ma You Are So, Racist! So, STFU!!!!
80's and 90's Hollywood was sooooo much better actual legit actors! And this velvet dress on Whoopi is everything😍
They're all still there.
“...if Oscar’s last name really is Schindler”. That was so smart! 😄
Always wondering why a woman with such brilliant mind is not bigger in the American show biz. Speaking your mind has its consequences.
Amarildo Fecanji Yes indeed. Especially if you're a woman and African American on top of that!
that is true but I have more respect for her as she's a woman speaking and living within her truth. opposite of some of celebrities that's nothing but pop culture and mainstream media puppets. not having a mind has more consequences
Rose Petals well said.couldn't put it better
Amarildo Fecanji you're right there, at least for her professionally

@@vima8680 What about you?
@@vima8680 Everyone has a right to their opinion. People like what/who they like. You have the right to enjoy other things/people.
I’ve always thought she was pretty.
She's looking soooo beautyful in this dress o:
And she did a real good Job
Last year Ellen DeGeneres was wearing just a suit but her hosting was amazing)

@@Kate94125 They mean simple as in sexy without being overly provacative, A suit is just a suit.
@@mamatibborscassady9388 What should she wear? leves or a potato sack???? She was a great host.
She has perfect comedic timing
She is awesome. I think Oscar should give her one more chance. wow she is.
kapil sharma Nah she is older now and forgets what she has to say.See the "view"
They seems to have created Oscar for white only!!
she has hosted 4 times
She and Billy Crystal should host together. That'd be so epic.
Allen M. Quinn She said one time that's the only way she would host again
Michael Dagg Well that would be amazing. I'd love to see it happen.
Allen Quinn i've that thought too that's will be hilarious 😂 on spot
Agree!!!
YES! : )
I want Whoopi to have her own production company.
"About a person who spent days and days running just one step ahead of the law, but that's enough about Tonya Harding" LMAO
I thought I had a Whoopi fetish.. Turns out I just like funny, intelligent women
Now I have thhee hugest thing for Whoopi
Always liked her , even since I was just a small kid. She's got a great and healthy attitude
She was very elegante that year. The dess looked beautiful, The make up was very feminine and the hair was Flawless.
The best host Oscar Academy ever had! I love you Whoopi 😍
Truth ang galing!
Ellen and Whoopi--the powerhouse of Oscar hosts
half of that phrase is untruth just whoppi
Want to see Whoopi again as the host of the Oscars 😊✔️🙏👌👍 Who's watching with me? 2020?
A very talented lady.
She does an amazing job. Its time for her to host again. Love her delivery AND truly captures everyone's attention.
My favourite line:
"...Lorena Bobbitt, PLEASE meet Bob Dole..."
I love when she says "thank you!" I just love her :D
The joke about Tonya Harding was priceless
imagine her monologue in 1994 and we're still fighting those issues today. 💔✨
Perfection! Whoopi can save 2022 Oscars.
damn, the Heidi Fleiss opening salvo: she came out SWINGING!
jawonn jones .
To make people laugh that hard you have to be extremely clever. Additionally, she is a brilliant actress and singer.
Her timing is impeccable.
CLASS ACT GOLD STAR!!! GORGEOUS TOO!!
She looks fantastic in that dress. Probably the best I've ever seen her look
Whoopi looked BEAUTIFUL & her monologue was HILARIOUS!!! Hr
She should've hosted this year, instead of Mr. Rock. She could've handle the whole race issue much better. It would've been actually... funny.
+Gábor Vág Chris Rock was actually funny. You probably didn't get half of his jokes. Especially if you're not American.

Whoopi looked so beautiful and powerful that night. I never forgot it...
The best host ever!
3:15
she was ahead of time, this was 1994 guys!
"thats why they hired me HunNy"🏃
The most realest human being on earth !😬
She is very good at it; thanks for uploading this 7-min monologue.
Never knew Whoopi wore dresses!!😂😂😂She looks beautiful!
Back when Oscars were OSCARS!!!!
Loved every movie she was in.
She is a very beautiful woman with a sharp mind and smooth delivery; she has it ALL!! I love her.👍👍👍👍👍😊🙋🇨🇦
she's gorgeous
whoopie has hosted oscar 5 times. she's amazing!
i think this is the first time I've been attracted to Whoopi Goldberg
You've never seen her in, "Ghost"?
***** XD
Always attracted to Whoopi.. though she was a little icky to Bernie this year. But she is my top female beauty wise
Me too
why announce that, though? what is wrong with guys?
I can watch Whoopi all day and night!!!! Not only she is amazing at acting and joking, but she can dress freaking sexy!!!! I can see why Patrick Swayze liked her so much!! She's such a freaking Queen!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Still funny ..January 2020
I love Whoopie Goldberg...
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my word I absolutely love her dress she is so beautiful
That dress has aged beautifully, it's timeless and looks perfect on her.
Whoopi is 57 years old and looks incredible for her age. What is a 57 year old grandmother and host of The View suppose to look like? Everyone can't look like Elisabeth Hasselbeck or Barbara Walters.

this outfit and hair, DAAAAAAANG she looks FIERCE
A quarter of a century later and most of these issues haven't been solved.
she really needs to host again
LOL.. she was flinging so much shade from the stagevyet so classy with it!!
wow she looks great!
so do you
You must admit Henry , this is less violent ...You're right Audrey 🤣
Whoop looks so GRAND just beautiful, like a solid black Grand Piano absolutely gorgeous.
It's a piece taken from an opera named Aida by Verdi - The piece itself is called "Marcia Trionfale"
"The Color Purple", "Ghost", "Corrina Corrina", "Sister Act 1 & 2",
"The Associate"......Have you ever seen "Corrina Corrina & The Associate"?? They are 2 of her best films I think. Totally underatted and forgotten unfortunately.
@lunakick12 around that time sinatra was cut off by music during his grammy speech.
she's such an amazing host. love her. can we get her back for next year's? :D
Whoopie, you look fabulous! Love your dress and your hair!!
She'll always be one of the best Oscar hosts!!!
Billy Crystal and her would be a great combo host!
Sometimes I forget how talented this woman is.
Life goals: finding out who was that woman at the beginning of the video.
+Gábor Vág Gina?
+Gábor Vág you mean at 0:22? that is geena davis
+Kitty Kat LOL, no, I know Geena Davis. :) I meant right at the beginning of the video. Woman in gold skirt/dress, running out from the stage. :)
I think that's meant to be Belle from Beauty and the Beast, in THAT gold dress.
Kelly Cohen
Thanks! :)
What a beautiful smile she has! Her radiance comes across in her humor and her eyes!
5:55 omg Tommy Lee Jones 😂😂😂 what the heck 😂😂😂
Stefhanie Arciaga Gosh that shiny head.....
She was the best host the Oscars ever had!
She is brilliant. She needs to host this more
Y’all see Tommy Lee Jones LAUGHING?! that’s all you need to know.
She is most definitely good.
Anyone know the name of the song for the opening? 😍 thanks.
Knowing she had a migrane during hosting, I admire her for the strength she had. I suffer from migraines too and I am bed bound. Very inspiring lady 🥹❤️
The Smiths should watch this video and remember.
Leonardo DiCaprio should've won for What's Eating Gilbert Grape.
Angela Bassett should've won for What's Love Got To Do With It.
She’s flawless!!!! #2019
If I would ever meet Whoopi up on stage for everything she said as she was hosting, I would just break down into tears and sweat my ass off damn she was funny😂
one of the best Oscar hosts ever.
We need to have Whoopi back as the host. The nominations are not nice but the host can be.
what is the title of a song from the beginning?
Wow! I just saw Whitney :)
Does anybody have to video of Whoopi hosting the 68th Oscars in '96??
This is the first awards clip I've seen of Tommy Lee Jones smiling. What happened after 1994, Tommy?
Wondering if that's the whole gag that inspired mo
Mib 3
Can you tell me which is the entrance music?
Darude sandstorm
Verdi: Aida - Triumphal March
That was a wonderful introduction! No easy feat, but that’s why she’s Whoopi. 😁
Please where can i see this with spanish subtittles??
