DISPATCHES FROM ABC NEWS: The View Promotes Latino Face Painting at Super Bowl.
This week, “The View” discussed Bad Bunny’s upcoming appearance at the 2026 Super Bowl. The conversation turned to illegal immigration on two fronts. The far-Left singer is an avowed ICE hater, having announced he wouldn’t tour the U.S. as long as ICE was still arresting illegal immigrants stateside.
Performing at the Super Bowl? That’s another story, apparently.
Plus, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem says ICE officials will be at the annual event.
That set off co-host Whoopi Goldberg, who served up a curious way to respond to the lawful group’s efforts to enforce immigration laws.
Goldberg’s solution served as a painful reminder of the nation’s blackface past, a dehumanizing practice that has long since been abandoned. Even comical uses of the practice have been memory-holed in recent years.
“Here is the thing, everybody, get a little cocoa butter, sit in the sun, that’s the first thing. And then — and this is the only time you can probably ever do this, give yourself a Latin accent.”
This is apparently a major hobby of at least two of The View’s hosts:
