Can you believe Whoopi Goldberg was mistaken for Oprah!
The legendary Whoopi Goldberg
was mistaken for Oprah Winfrey. See the Tweet that got this company in trouble.
Ever mistaken Whoopi Goldberg for Oprah? No? Me neither.
But this tweet sent out from Total Beauty showed us that somehow, in some parallel universe, it is possible to mix up the two stars.
It doesn’t help that there was so much controversy around #OscarsSoWhite and this tweet basically proves how ignorant people really are.
The tweet was (obviously) met with a lot of backlash.

The account has since apologized for the tweet.
It didn't take long for the account to be called out with some harsh backlash.
How is it that people can tell apart Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, but not Oprah Winfrey and Whoopi Goldberg?
