Actress Rosie Perez announced her decision to quit ABC’s The View today. The 50-year-old former dancer and activist broke down as she bid farewell to 2 of her co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Nicolle Wallace.
“I’ve decided that it’s time to move on. And I will say that today is very bitter-sweet for me,” Rosie said as she wiped away her tears.
“I am excited for what is to come but I am so sad to leave The View, the staff, the producers, and especially these 2 ladies,” she said, pointing to Whoopi and Nicolle.
“I want to thank you for your friendship, Nicolle, and your intelligence and your wit and your sunshine. Whoopi, I want to thank you for everything: your guidance, your professionalism, most of all, your friendship.”
“You are the captain of the ship,” she told Goldberg, who smiled and looked down at the floor.
Rosie and Wallace joined the lineup last fall. Former co-host Rosie O’Donnell departed soon after their arrival. O’Donnell’s personal problems at home were a major distraction on the set. Not to mention O’Donnell is reportedly very difficult to work with.
Watch the emotional video below.

Can’t stand Whoopi Goldberg’s coon ass. That’s all I got.
Awww…
I dont even currrr. Bye girl
Not one fuq given!
Not a damn one.
I’ve always liked Rosie Perez.
So all this talk about Tyga being trans friendly but nobody wants to talk about this lace closure tyga’s been rocking. How your hair grow back bruh? How your hairline move forward 3 inches bruh? How it get so thick bruh? Is that brazilian nappy or african wavy? You bout to loose all your bosley hair club endorsements over this scandal bruh!!
Damn that was fast…they just need to let the View go…its ship has sailed.
i havent watched The View in 50-11 years.
Why is she crying? She was there what 2 months??
I agree with this statement.
I like her but IDC. All the emotions after 1 year? Hell in our world it takes longer for the birthday club on the job to treat you right. She must have personal relationships with these people that span across a few years. I’m out, peace.
The same person who does the weaves for the Kardashians, was doing his.
Hey SumSum how that nephew baby momma doing? lol
Who snatched her locks owt the side of her head!!
Hey! She’s doing well. She has a job. ??
Didnt even know she was on the show
dont forget the person doing lip and azz injections
me netha… I maybe watched one episode when I was sick or some shyt…
LMAO…ass too old for dreads is what that is.
shut the noise. I’m glad for her
So…did they let her go or is this actually her decision?
and you ain’t miss NOTHIN.
this is my 1st day back and I didnt watch none of that chit while I was off. Okay I may have wtached Paternity Court but only because the judge hair be laid.
The problem with the View is that it needs some REAL bishes up there. You got a group of people sprinkling sugar on shyt. The Real or rather I say Tamar is smart enough not to talk about topics with substance cause she has none. They keep the topics light and conversational. The view ponders to middle aged white woman. Wendy already has that demographic on lock though.
LMMFAO #RappersWorseThanTyga Petey Pablo …..where has he been at anyway? Hummm
I thought that was his hair all this time ???
she didn’t seem to be a good fit, neither is Raven S., that show has ran it’s course really, they need to just put it out of it’s misery. . .
that shyt plum smoove! aint shyt growing back in that spot..err area…
He out of gel yet?
Not to mention O’Donnell is reportedly very difficult to work with.
^^^^
I always LOVED Rosie O’Donnell. I remma when she was on last season of Gimme A Break. She got worse with her bipolar disorder though over the years. It was sad to watch man. ?
That show is something else. I watched the entire time I was on maternity leave.
I think he in jail the last time I heard.
Freek a Leek used to be my shyt.
“How you like it daddy”
OMG Pandora is playing big time. WHy is Pastor Troy on?! I can’t today.
LOL i was scratching my head when she was taking up for Mel Gibson when that tape of him ranting very naughty things was released, i’m like WTF are u thinking defending him??
dont they be all up and through her audience.
What is he locked up for?!
I haven’t watched The View since Elisabeth Hasselbeck races azz was up there. Many MANY moons ago
HA! got eeem!! ???
They thought Raven would revitalize this sinking ship but she was the rock that help it go undah
Distribution of trash music to the masses…oh wait, that’s not a criminal offense ???
#FreePeteyPablo (depending on what he did)
Chile…she’s the queen coon of talk shows…
Freaking Dead
IMO that hair and makeup is everything. Whoever does it is not trying to make her look like a tranny or dragqueen.
I can’t remember why he went. I wanna say drugs…
Yassss. *chair dances* Trap Queen is on!!!!
..said Roman Polanski sodomizing a 13 year old child wasn’t ‘rape rape”….defended Bill Cosby… all kinds of crazy shyt. I been through with Whoopi…
????
OMG Pastor Troy was my ish in college. What if Heaven is hell and vice versa YEAH!
Now I thought we talked that word yesterday?
I can not stand that ignorant, irritating, idiotic wench.
I read a few days ago that they have been thinking of letting her go for awhile but the other co-hosts weren’t having it.
ma’am….. this here!!!1
she say cause she know him. you cant know these crakkers. Any way is that your doggie in the gravi. Its a cutie
I don’t watch the view but it was on the other day and I was shocked as heck when Rosie started talking and didn’t have that strong Spanish accent she always has – shoot last movie I saw her in – the counselor – she still had that accent – what she lose it for the show? I love Rosie though…. she so New York…. I wish Whoopie would cut that yarn out her head – I LOATHE fake dreads….
Agreed she has a good team… Maybe these other heifas need to get a team and not glam squads cause they fuqn them up.
Free Mac…he’s in for mur-DA.
Ummm….hmmmm…..ummmm…did Whoopi do her edges like that on purpose????
Ion know WHY they thought that was a good idea. Oh yeah to ponder to young white lesbians. Whoopie brings in the black middle age lesbians… Rosie was suppose to bring the Latinos and the other white lady for racist white housewives. None of this shyt worked though.
SAAAAANNNNNDDDRRRRRRAAAAA is Monyetta moving out on Neyo house on her own free will (about time) or is it some behind the scenes fuckery going on????
he glued Bruce’s (Caitlin) left over armpit and pube hair to his head and mouth….. his lips in that pic scream I just sucked a big dack now my lips dry…
Either way good for her!!!!
Somebody down below just called whoopie one too. Its just a word…sheesh.
you know what khaki you just said a damn mouthful. Thats the problem she has a good team. These others have these glam squads with not a damn drop fo glamour, Rupaul done got these folks confused.
She was so so crazy with it. I mean just plain bizarre!
Wait…so NO ONE deserves to be called a coon?
And don’t be telling on me GIGGLES!
They are also wrong. Come on, dance with me to the ratchet music!!! *does serious two step*
Oh it was you?! lol lmao
Moses is out. I think….
His dumb azz showed up to our local airport (RDU) with a gun in his suitcase. Was on his way to BET Awards I do belee
When she wore that short ass dress when Obama was on there. Bytch keep stretching her legs out. That pissed me off something serious. Don’t be low key flirting with my president white bish.
All the way turned around and twisted up. Everybody looking like they trying out for drag race.
Whhhaatt? damn clown.
That house has been up for sale for a few months now. They’re not together anymore so it makes sense. I know you asked Sandra.
#NoSnitching in the Garden
HA!
LMFAOOOOOO!!! Ol boy Caitlin said Tyga gives the best neck in the county.
Yes and Whoopi is a COON. I f*cks with K-Dub, but we’re going to have to disagree about this one. A spade is a spade.
What’s wrong with coon. Its plenty of them out there. Uncle Thomas and Anut Thomasina run a muck.
tried to board a damn plane with a gun. You know the regular dumb chit that wrappers do.
Yes. Gun was stolen too. Said he had forgotten it was in the suitcase
dumb ass.
?????
ditto, they can smile in ur face and hide how they truly feel, esp. in the entertainment, but let their arses get a good bit of liquor in ’em, they let u know their true feelingz.
*can of worms*
???????
when I tell you that yt skank made me want to slap the pure n tee chit out of her on several occasions. The best place for her is over there at Fox
ROFL zackly
Oh. It was On September 11th too.
I can’t make this chit up
DAYUM didn’t know she went 2 bat for Roman. What about Woody Allen? did she defend his pedo ass? LOL. . . .
you know what these damn BET awards need to be canceled some crap goes down almost every year. I forgot where he was going.
Nope I ain’t funny like that. I posted it for errbody lol. That makes sense. I never understood why she was still there with the pics of them STILL up!
About time
I mean you can’t even make this dumb shyt up. How fugging stupid can you be!
yes said he forgot. How you forget you got a pistol thats hotter than a damn Chicago fire. Dummy
I went to my mom house back when she was on there. My aunt was visiting. Whatever her dumb azz had said one epi, had my mama AND auntie hot. ??
she probably just opened her damn mouth. Thats really all it took for me.
LOL
Girl, Bye ? she’s worst than Kandi with all that crying and ish’. Go out like Star Jones, a Boss.
It was an award show. I recall it was on 9/11 he did that dumb shat. But that is Kinda late for a BET Awards.
He had our lil airport shut DOWN. And I had just got laid off from paper. One of my homeboys got called in on a Saturday to go cover that dumb azz chit.?
Star was like F Yall!! I’m
Out bishes
Basically and Sherri Shepard hunch back of Notre Dame built ass was always like “this my fraaaan” bish shut your coon ass up. I bet Elizabeth ain’t spoke to her since she left the show
Huney, Whoopi loves Woody Allen she defended his ass too. She and Sherry got into an argument about it.
Tears?
Cocaine is a hell’va drug sis!
Wait. Is tonight the Xscape Unsung?
So was today her official last day? I can’t watch The View, Whoopi and Raven clothes urk me.
She is not racist.
BET Hip Hop Awards in the fall. Clifford got locked up in the fall too. On his way to the Hip Hop Awards I think.
Whoa..*tightens the reigns*
No. She just a Republican.
Not the county…LMAO!!!!
maaaaaan I was like do you see ? what I see??? And my self was like ? DEM EDGES DONE LOST IT
And that makes you a racist?
I’m not going there today Sis.
They need to just stick the fork in the View already
Why is anyone surprised by Whoopi
I aint tightening shyt. Sherri was always riding Elizabeth’s clyt. She put that bish in her wedding and everything. Trying to fit in. Look where it got her. You can’t tell coons nothing though….they gotta see it for themselves
Good I’m glad you said yes. I’m a conservative and I am, in no way, shape, or form a racist or a coon for having a conservative ideology.
So what if she just genuinely liked this woman? Still a coon?
I didnt say anything. You said that. But birds of feather flock together. That’s all I will say
*walks in with my Peoples Champ Belt* ?
Nah. From down below….Whoopi coons from time to time… like ole boy on Sparkle said.
I’ve never forgiven her for letting her then bf Ted Danson go somewhere with her in blackface. 1990’s. Proof somewhere out in these Internet streets
Member Whoopi thinks she is an exception cause she was married to yt men, had a kid with a yt man etc etc
Yup 1993
I remember that shyt vividly…smh…
New Post – Black Twitter
*sighs* You could have at least asked me why,. That’s contempt prior to investigation. I’m disappointed.
I love Ms. Jones! I F-ing despise Barbara Walters! When she croaks, I’m baking cupcakes!
Damn, I had forgotten about that.
My only issue with the word is don’t be using it on folks we ain’t got receipts fah. That is a strong word. It is a pattern of behavior. Not just cause you like some old yt races bish stolen recipes. I mean old girl yesterday was like I like Paula Deen. Heffa was deemed a coon 2 minutes later. Smdh.
Point taken.
I don’t care to know why you choose to be on the side of a group of people who have oppressed black people since forever. You a black Republican. Kuddos to you. I hope that works out sis…
My exact sentiments.
I knew she was fired when she said Angela Basset’s ”Whitney” Movie is the reason why Bobbi Kristina was in her current state—-which is true.
Touche
And she all the pics just a skinning and grinning as my G-Ma used to say.
You don’t seem to know much about history so I’ll let that slide. Ideology is personal. Whether or not I ever pull the lever for a Republican my personal ideology will remain the same till the day I die. It just happens to be a conservative one.
They need to just put this show out of it’s misery like they finally did Idol.
that’s not cool, she shouldn’t defend those devils.
You are aware that the Democratic party was the pro slavery party back in the day, right? The Republican Party’s original platform was the abolition of slavery.
?????? LMAO
Or bring back Ms. Jones ? ??
Where’s the funeral and who passed away?
Too old for dreads? wow
Im very aware of this. Its the same group of people with the same type of thinking that enslaves us today. They just flipped the name. That’s even more the reason I said what I said
Yes, get some Kleenex for ol’ crying Kandi. ???
Looks like there’s tension between Rosie and rayven..
Lol at Whoopi who said “please don’t, we goin break and get our a**es together” …. That was over and beyond crying.
I still don’t get why Rosie is leaving?
Hell yes.
?????????? smooth
So are they gonna cancel this mess or what? Even the oldies but goodies ain’t checking for the phew. The show have ru. It’s course, and hosts. Once host are in and out like a revolving door, it’s over.
Just cancel the show….really
Yes she did!! Ever since she got some of the white ? from Ted Danson she’s been a coon ever since!!
What kid she had with Ted. I thought all she had was the one daughter and she black. Where have I been.
I just cancel it. Ya’ll lost creditability when you hired Waven Simon.
Right!!
The problem with that show was Rosie and Whoopie. Everyone else has been coming and going and getting part blame for the failings of this show. They will cancel the show and develop a new morning show that does not include Whoopee. This is the only way they will fire her, just cancel the show.
Whoopie does NOT have a kid with Ted Danson..fact check, please
That show is a train wreck now, just cancel it already! Geesh!
i watch the talk.
Classy Lady
Why is Rosie crying like she been on The View for years tho? It was a bit extra.????
HUH, What does that mean? Too old for dreads??? Whose too old for a hairstyle? WOW
I like Rosie but girl come on. You were on like ten shows. Half the time, you were away on Broadway. Why are you crying like you’ve been on the show for ten years? Girl puhlease.
I actually like Raven there. I wish Star would come back. or Sherri. or Joy.
THIS!!
What had happened? Why is she crying?
It’s not like she was on the show for years. Just say bye and go.
They need to get Woopie’s black lip ass off that boring show. That show went from suga to sh!t after Star Jones was fired. Rosie O was the best but Rosie P can kick rocks. Why is she crying so hard? Seems like she was fired because she brought nothing to the show. Bye Felicia! Oops, I mean Rosie!
Her daughter Alexandria’s father is white.
Rosie cut it out! You were only on the view for 2.5 seconds.
Locs are just like braids; if you wear them for too long they will cause alopeca. That’s why it’s a good idea to switch up hairstyles. Chances are she shaved her head so that it wasn’t as noticable like on Naomi Campbell.
Thank you! It’s not like she’s wearing two pony tails like a child. smh But I bet the same person is rocking a hair hat.
Rosie tried her hardest but “The View” producers can’t figure out who their target audience is so they are throwing everything against a wall to see what sticks. That’s why their casting is for crap. I don’t agree with Whoopi all the time, but when I do I appreciate how she can express herself. I don’t hate Raven but she gets on my nerves, with her sniffing her own sh*t and thinking it smells like roses.
Rosie brought intelligence, passion, and energy to the show. Yes, sometimes it looked like she was straining in her vocal cords to speak, but by in large she was well researched when she had an opinion. I just hated that Raven would interrupt her.
They do need to keep that comedian Michelle Collins though because you can tell that’s she’s down with the swirl and keeps it crispy. Chick called somebody a “basic b*tch” early this week and had me dead!
She’s gonna miss that paycheck and the exposure. Also, no one likes to be fired (don’t believe the lie about her leaving of her own accord). I heard Nicole Wallace is on her way out too.
Now you know it wasn’t her decision! On the streets the rumor was that they were going to cut her before but they had no definite replacement. It was a soft firing. Other than seeing her strain in her vocal cords to speak sometimes I don’t get why they’d fired her.
Rumor on the street is that Rosie Perez has a serious drinking problem and has been showing up late or not showing at all at The View and so that bitch got CANCELLED. She didn’t quit, she was fired.
Ohh for real
