I am... Whoopi Goldberg?

I was bored while watching TV -- it was President Obama or So You Think You Can Dance Canada -- so I started to cruise around the interwebz looking for something better to watch, and on the abc.com site I find a quiz about which View member are you. So I took it. Cuz yes I was that bored.

My answers to the Which View Co-Host Are You quiz: I like small dogs, potato chips, and musical theatre. I don't twitter. I like to dress fashionably. Then the analysis pops up...

Big sigh of relief --- I'm not brain-void Sherri Shepherd!

Bit of a disappointment --- I'm not sharp, sassy Joy Behar.

I am... Whoopi Goldberg.

Wait a sec -- dress fashionably and Whoopi Goldberg?

Their Whoopi-esque summary: You're funny and blunt and every once in a blue moon you lapse into a Valley Girl accent and you're not sure why. Among your friends, you keep things on topic - you're a leader. You're very laid back, but if something rubs you the wrong way, you're not afraid to ask "What the hell?"

Okay the Valley Girl thing is crap, and it annoys me she does it too. And aside from the bizarre defending of Mel Gibson lately, which is when Whoopi jumped the shark, this is super talented cool lady, from award winning performer to social activist.

Still, what the hell? I am soooo much more a Joy Behar!

Great, now I am forced (by forced I mean I have no impulse control, of course) to go take this quiz. BRB.

Thank goodness, you were not Elizabeth either. If worse comes to worse I wouldn't mind being Baba Wawa or Whoopi

You are so not Whoopi!

Then there is the whole " not rape rape" thing when she defended Polanski. I once loved Whoopi, but she really needs to pull away from the bong.

Ok. You made me do it. I took the quiz hoping to be Barbara W. But when I didn't answer that I would likely be out interviewing a newsmaker on Friday night I thought my chances were slim.
In fact, according to the very scientific quiz I am most like Joy B!

There is no way on earth I'd say you have anything in common with Whoppi except a pulse.

I rarely agree with the results of those quizzes. LOL. Joy is my favorite and I'll always love Whoopie.

The View makes me angry, just like Dirty Dancing.

Dirty Dancing? Dirty Dancing makes you angry? I don't get that!

Dirty Dancing 2 Havana Nights, that I get ---- that just blew.

Yeah... I don't get the fashion comment either. But at least you weren't Sherri. Although that would have be hillarious. I took the Grey's Anatomy personality quiz on abc.com and apparently I'm Erica Hahn. At least in that reality I did get to date Callie Torez.

Brahm (alfred lives here) said...

I think the Erica Hahn thing is pretty damn ok.

And speaking of blondes, am also happy was not the Hasselbot on the View quiz.

I don't watch tv that often but on occasion I do click over to watch The View and I must say that I'd rather be Whoopi rather than Elizabeth Hasselbeck any day. What is Elizabeth's talent again? And why does she insist on being blonde when we all know she looks better as a brunette? I am going to take the quiz to find out who I am too!
By the way, I took your button to my blog!

I'm so glad you didn't post a link to that quiz, otherwise I would have taken it. I guess I could search for it on Google, but I won't. I would be devastated to find out that I was an Elisabeth Hasslebutt.

But Joy, I could live with being compared to Joy. Oh, hell, I'm gonna find that quiz now!!!
