Whoopi Goldberg

The Tribeca Film Festival handed out this year’s honors on Thursday.

This year’s panel of jurors for Robert De Niro’s signature film festival included Meg Ryan, Uma Thurman, Mary-Kate Olsen and Whoopi Goldberg.

Top honors went to the Iranian film About Elly from director Asghar Farhadi.

The festival’s audience award winner will be announced on Saturday evening.

This year’s honorees, including Elia Kazan’s granddaughter, Zoe, who was honored as best actress, include:

Whoopi Goldberg has signed on to play Benjamin Bratt’s ex-wife on several episodes of A&E’s The Cleaner.

That’s gonna require some major suspension of disbelief for the audience.

First, to believe that they were ever a couple and, second, that she would ever let a man like Benji go.

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, who welcomed a second daughter on January 6th, have announced they’ve named their new little girl Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck.

Seraphina means “fiery one.”

It’s not to be confused with Sarafina, which was a movie starring Whoopi Goldberg.

How you doin’?

Whoopi Goldberg is set to get tranny-licious tonight, ya’ll!

The Oscar winner has been cast to play a man“in the funk-a-fied flesh,” on tonight’s episode of Life On Mars.

Whoopi appears as a ‘70s underground New York radio DJ, complete with Afro wig, Lennon glasses and love beads, who goes by the name of Brother Love Butter.

Can you dig it?

Tune it to see Brother Love Butter on Life on Mars tonight at 10pm on ABC.
