In a stunning move, the Golden Globe Ethics Board has decided to rescind Whoopi Goldberg’s Lifetime Achievement Award. The decision was made after an extensive investigation revealed that Goldberg had engaged in a series of unethical activities throughout her career.
According to sources close to the investigation, the board discovered that Goldberg had secretly replaced all of the awards on her mantlepiece with knock-off replicas made in China. This blatant act of fraud was deemed unacceptable by the board, who promptly revoked her award.
But that wasn’t all. The investigation also uncovered evidence that Goldberg had been engaging in a number of other shady practices, including bribing judges, stealing scripts from her fellow actors, and using performance-enhancing drugs during her stand-up comedy routine.
“This behavior is simply unacceptable,” said a spokesperson for the Golden Globe Ethics Board. “We cannot in good conscience allow someone like Whoopi Goldberg to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award when she has engaged in so many unethical activities throughout her career.”
The news of Goldberg’s award being revoked has sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with many of her colleagues expressing their shock and disappointment.
“I just can’t believe it,” said one actor who wished to remain anonymous. “Whoopi has always been such a role model to me. To find out that she’s been engaging in all of these unethical activities is just heartbreaking.”
Goldberg herself has yet to comment on the situation, but sources close to her say that she is devastated by the news.
In the wake of this scandal, the Golden Globe Ethics Board has pledged to take a closer look at all of their award recipients to ensure that they are truly deserving of the honors they receive. Let’s just hope they don’t uncover any more skeletons in Hollywood’s closet.
