THE View fans have expressed their shock after Whoopi Goldberg appeared to audibly pass gas during Wednesday’s live show.

Shortly after the View episode began, Whoopi suffered a bit of a blunder that caused her to go off script.

The moderator was in the middle of discussing a political topic when she all of a sudden admitted to everyone that she had some “gas.”

The in-studio audience erupted in laughter.

Fans at home immediately began tweeting about whether or not Whoopi had just farted on live TV.

One asked: “Ughhh!!! Spare me. Wait! Did Whoopi just pass gas?”

A second said: “Wait did Whoopi just fart on national tv?”

A third fan wrote: “That was gas!”

Another fan explained, however, that Whoopi had actually “burped,” but added that the hosts “are soooo loud and talking over each other” it was hard to hear.

Just a few weeks ago, the hosts were all left red-faced when a loud fart-like noise interrupted their broadcast.

In the middle of a segment, Sara quickly stood up from her chair, and a very loud fart noise erupted, leaving Alyssa laughing awkwardly as she tried to continue with the discussion.

“Whoopi!” Sara said as she wiped what appeared to be a spillage from the desk in front of her.

“Whoopi spilled water and now it’s on my pants,” the blonde TV star blurted out.

Alyssa laughed and said: “Oh. We had a little spillage on the other side of the table.”

On social media, fans debated whether the fart noise was indeed someone passing gas or simply from Sara’s chair moving.
