Fluevog Sighting: Whoopi on "The View"
September 18, 2007
Those yappy women on ‘The View’ sure do generate a lot of newsprint. If it’s not Star, it’s Rosie. If it’s not Rosie, it’s that wacko right-wing one with the footballer husband. I’ve never seen the show but I’m absolutely positive I never want to. Except.
Except I would like to have seen Whoopi’s first day as a co-host.
As per usual, Scandal Was Generated. Whoopi apparently put forth some sort of “It’s because we’re black” defence of Michael Vick’s barbarism. But I don’t want to see it for that. I kinda love Whoopi, but mostly I want a closer look at her shoes.
Rumour has it that Whoopi was sporting Fluevogs.
The above pic was snatched from YouTube, and there’s certainly a Voggy flavour to that heel, but I just can’t confirm it. (There might even be better shots on YouTube, but the commenters there and their concerted efforts to prove John Gabriel’s Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory consistently drive me away.)
Got a better pic? Know which member of the family it was? Let me know.
UPDATE: Sighting confirmed! Kind and helpful reader Stephen let me know where I could find pics of Whoopi wearing two (two!) different pairs of Vogs on ‘The View’. And that cleverly hidden location? Fluevog.com.
My cursory classification is the Mini Lover.
[...] which was all very nice. Most importantly, it told us all how a certain person is at identifying Fluevogs. That person is me. Yep, Whoopi’s shoes on ‘The View’ were the Mini [...]
[...] Red Mini Lovers, to be precise. These are the same shoes that Whoopi rocked on ‘The View’. [...]
