Whoopi Goldberg has given an explanation behind why she doesn’t actually have eyebrows, and admitted that her ex-husband (much like most of the internet, it seems) did not even notice.
The 66-year-old Sister Act star discussed the no-brow trend – which she’s been donning since before Kendall Jenner and Lady Gaga – on The View with her co-stars.
‘I have to do this with a straight face,’ Whoopi began, asking viewers (as she raised her no-brows): ‘How do you feel about this no-brow look?’
‘Whoopi I have sat next to you for six years and never noticed that you have no eyebrows,’ her co-panellist Sara Haines replied, adding: ‘And I look right into your eyes and I did not notice.’
‘I was married to a man who didn’t notice,’ Whoopi quipped back.
‘Until one day, he said, “Oh my God, you don’t have any eyebrows,” and I said, “Yeah, I know.”‘
Although it’s not clear which of her ex-husbands she was talking about, as the actress has been married to Alvin Martin, David Claessen and Lyle Trachtenberg, she jokingly indicated on The View about the vast height difference between her and her ex.

She continued: ‘I had eyebrows as a little kid and you know how men get those bumps? I started to get them on my face so my mother removed them.
‘And so I just keep doing it because I don’t know my face with eyebrows, unless I’m working.’
She revealed that while filming, sometimes her eyebrows are painted or stuck on.

‘What you can see on my face is, you know where they went, you know where they are, and so when you look at me, your eyes see eyebrows when there are none.’
At Whoopi’s revelation, her co-star Ana Navarro admitted she was ‘today years old’ when she found out that Whoopi actually didn’t have eyebrows, and it seems much of the internet feel the same way.
‘Ummmm why have I never noticed Whoopi Goldberg has never had eyebrows,’ one person wrote.
Another penned: ‘I was today years old when I learned Whoopi Goldberg doesn’t have eyebrows.’
