Did Whoopi Goldberg Seem High at the Oscars?

News surfaced yesterday that Whoopi Goldberg smoked weed before her Oscar win in 1991. During a voice-over recording session for The Pagemaster in 1992, Whoopi described the “wonderful joint” she smoked to calm her nerves before winning Best Support Actress for Ghost. No one could tell she was baked except for her mother who called her and said she figured it out by her “glistening eyes.”

Now TMZ unearthed a clip from her Oscar speech so you can see for yourself whether or not she was high as f**k. Video re-upped by Dlisted.

Hindsight is 20/20 so, yea, she does seem high, but then again, with that much adrenaline running through someone when they win an Oscar, almost everyone seems high as hell.

If she was high, then she held it together pretty well. At least, she didn’t stare at the Oscar for 5 minutes and try to eat it, thinking it was gold-wrapped chocolate.

Check out 1:19 though. Did you see Anjelica Huston giving Whoopi the stink eye? I can’t read minds, but with that look, I’m sure she was thinking of a 6 letter word starting with ‘n’.

If smoking the good stuff is going to make us like you, Whoopi, we’ll happily take a puff of your home-grown goodness. We think, we’ll keep our eyebrows, however. Only you are bad ass enough to pull that one off.

But please, pass that j.

If she was high, she did it a whole bunch better than a lot of actors do with their acceptance speeches. That was a wonderful, thoughtful, and heartfelt speech. Is that what weed does for you? So where is the story here, and why am I typing this? Cause I’m drunk!
