The View Chooses Whoopi and Sherri Shepherd

The View Chooses Whoopi and Sherri Shepherd
It’s been two months since Rosie O’Donnell walked away from The View, but now speculation is rife that Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd are about to hop into the hot seats.

Next week a formal announcement is expected that the two comedians will join the ABC daytime gabfest, the Los Angeles Times reports. Refusing comment on the report, network spokesman Karl Nilsson tells PEOPLE, “There is nothing to announce.” ABC Daytime president Brian Frons also told Variety, “We have no closed deal” with Goldberg.

After eight tumultuous months – culminating in an uncomfortable-to-watch on-air spat with costar Elisabeth Hasselbeck – O’Donnell bolted from the show one month before her one-season contract was due to expire.
