«Breaking News» Whoopi Goldberg reveals she almost died from sepsis caused by pneumonia

Whoopi Goldberg has been on sick leave from The View for the past month, and on Friday she revealed that she has been battling pneumonia in both lungs and nearly died of sepsis. 

The View co-host Joy Behar on Friday played a pre-taped message from Goldberg offering an update on her health.  

'I am here,' Goldberg, 63, says into the camera in the recording. 'I am up and moving around, not as fast as I'd like to be, but I am OK. I'm not dead.'

'I'm not dead': Whoopi Goldberg revealed in a pre-raped video that aired on The View Friday that she had pneumonia and nearly died of sepsis 

The Academy Award-winning actress went on to explain that she had pneumonia in both lungs and was 'septic,' meaning that she had a potentially life-threatening condition in which the body is fighting a severe infection that has spread via the bloodstream. 

'And yes,' she continued, 'I came very, very close to leaving the earth. Good news: I didn't.'

She went on: 'Thank you for all of your good wishes, all of the wonderful things that people have been saying. Even people who aren’t huge fans of mine have actually been saying nice thing about me.'

The comedienne then joked that 'all that is gonna change' when she returns to the daytime talk show, drawing laughter from the live studio audience at The View.

She ended her message by promising to tell her co-hosts about her health scare 'when we're all at the table.' 

Goldberg then sent an air kiss and signed off with the words, 'see you soon.'

Goldberg, who is one of only 15 entertainers who have achieved the coveted EGOT status by winning an Emmy, a Grammy, and Oscar and a Tony, has been away from The View since February 6.  

Behar addressed Goldberg's illness on The View for the first time on February 20, revealing that her colleague is recovering from a bout with pneumonia and wishing her a speedy recovery.

At the time, Goldberg's extended absence from the show sparked rumors that she had been secretly preparing to host the 91st Academy Awards ceremony, after comedian Kevin Hart dropped out of the show over a controversy concerning homophobic tweets.

'There are all these conspiracy theories on the Internet that she’s not really sick and she’s secretly preparing to host the Oscars,' Behar said. 'She’s not even well enough to host this show right now, let alone the Oscars.' 

On Thursday, Goldberg was a no-show at the third annual concert benefit Love Rocks NYC in Manhattan, which she was scheduled to helm alongside fellow comic Martin Short.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
