Oprah Reacts To Beauty Blog Mistaking Her For Whoopi Goldberg At The Oscars
Oprah Winfrey was just as disappointed as everyone else who noticed she was mistaken for Whoopi Goldberg at the 88th Academy Awards.
Blog Total Beauty made the cringe-worthy flub during red carpet arrivals Sunday evening. The site, which rarely focuses on products for people of color, posted a photo of Goldberg to their Twitter account with the caption, “We had no idea Oprah was tatted, and we love it. #Oscars.”
After major backlash from pretty much everyone, the tweet was deleted and the site released an apology:

Oprah and BFF Gayle King commented on the blunder with a hilarious Instagram post. The co-anchor of CBS This Morning posted a photo of Oprah and King’s daughter Kirby Bumpus’ reaction to the tweet.
The site took their apology a step further by agreeing to donate $10,000 to any charity of Goldberg and Winfrey’s choice.
