Whoopi Goldberg’s Suggestion for Super Bowl Attendees to Troll Kristi Noem
During a recent episode of The View, Whoopi Goldberg made a bold and unconventional suggestion for Super Bowl attendees who might want to challenge or provoke Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. The actress, known for her sharp wit and unfiltered commentary, proposed that fans could play a prank on Noem by altering their appearance and mannerisms to confuse her.
Goldberg's idea came in response to comments made by Noem about the presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) at the 2026 Super Bowl. In a recent video from The Benny Show, Noem stated that ICE would be "all over" the event, emphasizing her responsibility to ensure that everyone attending the game could enjoy it safely. “We're going to enforce the law,” she said.
Goldberg, ever the provocateur, suggested that fans could use this as an opportunity to mock the rhetoric surrounding immigration enforcement. “How’s she going to know who’s who?” she asked during the show. Her co-host Joy Behar responded with a pointed remark, referencing the Supreme Court’s stance on racial profiling: “Because the Supreme Court has given permission to question anyone who has a Spanish accent or who has dark skin. That's why.”
Goldberg took the conversation further, joking that attendees should “get a little cocoa butter, sit in the sun” to get a tan and adopt a “Latin accent.” She encouraged people to take advantage of the moment and see if Noem could distinguish between those who were actually of Latin descent and those who were just trying to pull off a joke.
This comment was part of a broader discussion about Noem’s criticism of the NFL for booking Bad Bunny as the headliner for the Super Bowl halftime show. Noem had previously expressed disapproval of the decision, calling the NFL “weak” and claiming they would “not be able to sleep at night because they don't know what they believe.”
Bad Bunny, however, addressed the controversy during his recent hosting gig on Saturday Night Live. He played a montage featuring clips of Fox News hosts praising him, including one who claimed, “Bad Bunny is my favorite musician, and he should be the next president.” The Grammy-winning artist expressed excitement about performing at the Super Bowl and acknowledged the global reach of his music.
“I’m very excited to be doing the Super Bowl, and I know that people all around the world who love my music are also happy,” he said before switching to Spanish. He concluded his monologue in English, adding, “And if you didn’t understand what I just said, you have four months to learn.”
Goldberg’s remarks sparked a lively debate about the intersection of politics, culture, and public perception. While some saw her comments as a humorous way to highlight the absurdity of racial profiling, others criticized the approach as potentially harmful. Regardless, the discussion underscored the growing tension between political figures and cultural icons, particularly when it comes to issues of identity, representation, and national security.
