Unexpected Blooper: Whoopi Goldberg's On-Air Blunder on 'The View' Sparks Laughter

During a recent episode of The View on February 26, host Whoopi Goldberg made a humorous mistake by confusing the show's resident medical expert's name. Instead of introducing Dr. Jennifer Ashton, she accidentally referred to her as Jennifer Aniston.

The mix-up occurred while discussing Punch the monkey, a heartwarming story of a monkey at Ichikawa City Zoo in Japan. Goldberg explained the zoo's handling of the situation and mentioned she would ask Dr. Jennifer Aniston for her opinion when they returned from the break.

Host Ana Navarro quickly corrected Goldberg's slip, leading to a light-hearted exchange between the two. When the show resumed, Goldberg continued the joke by mentioning her mistake and humorously referring to Dr. Ashton as a primate specialist.

Goldberg's playful banter added a comedic touch to the episode, highlighting the camaraderie among the hosts. Despite the flub, the show continued smoothly with the introduction of Dr. Jennifer Ashton to discuss health topics.
