quote:
“It was Barbara, Whoopi [Goldberg] and myself in the dark green room off to the side,” Steele said. “I was probably about four feet from the wall and the trash can, and Barbara was standing over here in front of me. She just started to back up toward me and looked at me and got close and elbowed me, and it pushed me back into the wall and the trash can. I was like, ‘What did [she] just do to me? This 140-year-old woman just tried to like tackle me.’”

"Some of the producers saw it. Whoopi saw it. And Whoopi was like, ‘Come here.’ She was great. She pulled me aside in her little area and she’s like, ‘Don’t you let her do it.’ And I’m like, ‘Am I in a movie right now?’ One of the legends in this industry just tried to beat me up!”

I believe her. Barbara Walters is mentally fricking ill.

Jay Quest•8 months

She forgot the part about Babs wearing a MAGA hat and the noose she was carrying. The details are what makes a story believable.

Pretty Sad to make a statement like this about a dead woman who's not here to defend against it. Self Hate is real with people like Sage, but guess what, at the end of the day you're still going to be judged on who and what you are. Bank On It!!!!

Paige Spiranac wishes she looked like this woman.
But, Paige Spiranac is a fat cow.

White liberals trying to control all black people.

On the one hand, I think, why would she lie when Whoopi can refute it. On the other hand, is it possible this is a misunderstanding? Could Babwa been really backing up unaware she was behind her and the contact was an accident? I mean, Ms. Steele is 5'10 or 5'11", albeit slender, and that kind of height is intimidating to an elderly lady of maybe 5'3" or 5'4" as Walters is.

Barbara "The Bully" Walters. Come at me gurl

BamaRoo•8 months

Apparently she wasn't left with any permanent
scars from Barbwa's bwootal attack --- but then I
haven't seen all of Sage Steele either.

HonoraryCoonass•8 months

I kinda wanted to like this chick, but I don’t believe that story for one second.

Walt OReilly•8 months

Why would she lie about this?

tucoco•8 months

It could be true, I mean Mrs. Walters was up there in age by then and could have been having some type of mental episode, who knows. But I question Sage Steele for bringing this up this late in life now. I mean the woman is gone now, so, what's your purpose for bringing this up. Smh

Martini•8 months

Typical. Barbara Walters didn’t get where she is by being a wallflower and apparently this gal is delicate.

tucoco•8 months

yeah, ole Barbara was checking her for that rebound, and lil Sage couldn't cut it. LOL
