Whoopi Goldberg Claims Bakery Refused Her Service Due to Left-Wing Views: ‘They Didn’t Like My Politics’

Whoopi Goldberg claimed on “The View” that a popular Staten Island bakery refused to serve her because of her political views, but the bakery’s owner has denied the allegations.

During Wednesday’s episode of “The view“Goldberg and her co-hosts celebrated her 69th birthday with Charlotte Russe desserts, a nostalgic New York treat that Goldberg shared was her mother’s favorite.

Goldberg told the audience that her birthday order almost failed because of what she said was the bakery’s objection to her left-wing political stance.

“They said their ovens were broken, all kinds of things, but people went to get them anyway, so I’m not telling you who made them,” Goldberg said. She claimed her command was not rejected because of her gender, but rather because “they didn’t like my politics.”

Despite the potential disapproval, Goldberg encouraged her audience and co-hosts Alyssa Farah Griffin, Joy Behar, Sara Haines and Sunny Hostin to delve into the Charlotte Russe desserts.

“But that’s okay, because you know what? Listen, this is my mom’s party,” Goldberg said. “Pick this up and celebrate with me and my mom. Thank you everyone for celebrating my birthday today.”

Entertainment Weekly later identified the bakery as Holtermann’s Bakery, a 145-year-old family-owned business on Staten Island, by researching the Charlotte Russe desserts themselves. The packaging – pink polka dots on a white paper cup – was said to be a sign that the desserts came from the family bakery.

Bakery owner Jill Holtermann denied Goldberg’s version of events, explaining that the bakery’s problems were not politically motivated, but stemmed from mechanical problems with their boilers, an ongoing challenge in their building, which was built in 1930.

“I told Whoopi, ‘I can’t do it right now,’” Holtermann told the outlet. “There’s so much going on with my boiler.”

Holtermann confirmed that she eventually managed to make 50 treats, which were picked up early Wednesday morning for the taping of “The View.”

Holtermann reiterated that her inability to immediately confirm the order had nothing to do with Goldberg’s political beliefs, adding, “I didn’t want to make a commitment that I can’t keep,” given the existing technical difficulties.

Staten Island Live reported that Holtermann’s has been “bombarded” with phone calls since the episode aired.
