Whoopi Goldberg is an actress and comedian who is known for many roles in television and film, including The Color Purple, Ghost, Sister Act, Whoopi's Littleberg, and Star Trek: The Next Generation. She is also one of the co-hosts of The View since September 2007. She has appeared with the Muppets in many different contexts, including Sesame Street, Muppets Tonight, Muppet Babies, Bear in the Big Blue House, It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, and Letters to Santa.
Goldberg's association with the Muppets began early in her career. According to Kevin Clash, "Before she was well-known, she was a baby-sitter for some of the kids we had on the show. Then she became famous and whenever we ask her to do something for us, she's always there. She's a part of Sesame Street." [1] Goldberg is Clash's favorite guest star and has worked with him as both Elmo and Hoots.
