Whoopi Goldberg addressed rumors about her sexuality after Raven-Symoné claimed she gave off “lesbian vibes.”
“Women have been asking me this for as long as I’ve been around, I am not a lesbian,” the “Sister Act” star said on Sunday’s episode of “The Best Podcast Ever with Raven and Miranda.”
“But I know lots of them, and I’ve played them on television.”
Goldberg, 67, added she has several lesbian friends with whom she’s had to set boundaries in the past.
“I’ll tell them, ‘I’m not gonna kiss you, but I’ll kiss you over here, I’ll do this, but I’m not going to do this’ … and they’re like, ‘OK!'” she explained.
Raven-Symoné, who starred in “The View” from 2015 to 2016, brought up the topic of Goldberg’s sexuality when she revealed her own attraction to her former co-host.



“Honestly, when I was around you, I loved you so much, like, I just wanted to be up underneath the t—y the whole time,” the “That’s So Raven” alum, 37, confessed.
“But that’s also because you just kind of gave me lesbian vibes!”
The pair along with Raven-Symoné’s wife, Miranda Pearman-Maday, all laughed before the “Cosby Show” actress continued, “Sometimes, Whoops, you give me lesbian vibes, you give me stud vibes.”
Before Goldberg had a chance to respond, Pearman-Maday jokingly admitted her wife “wants everybody to be gay.”


“I think this is a secret fantasy of Raven’s!” she said.
“I think she just wants everybody to be gay and she’s just really hoping you’ll come out right here, right now.”
Goldberg, however, appeared to be unbothered by the question.


Earlier this month, the “Ghost” actress — who has been married three times — admitted during an episode of “The View” that every time she got divorced, she was “dancing and prancing.”
She explained that by her third failed marriage, it started “getting expensive and boring.”
Goldberg first tied the knot with drug counselor Alvin Martin in 1973 at 18 years old.

The two, who share a daughter, Alexandrea, divorced six years later.
She later wed Dutch cinematographer David Claessen in 1986, but the pair called it quits in 1988.
The “The Color Purple” star went on to marry actor Lyle Trachtenberg in 1994.
The two divorced a year later.
