Legendary Hollywood Star Whoopi Goldberg has admitted dating younger men can be “tiring”.
During Wednesday’s episode of The View, The Sister Act actress discussed age gaps in relationships with co-hosts Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines, as well as guest co-host Cindy McCain.
“It depends on my mood,” the comedy star joked. “Because it’s about the person. Sometimes you meet somebody who is younger than you and… look, it would be perfect if everybody was well-matched and well put together, but they’re not. And you find it where you find it, and it may last a long time or it may not.”
She said: “Let me tell you why I stopped doing lots of things with younger folks. I went out with a younger dude and he said, ‘I can’t believe this’, I said, ‘What are you talking about?’
“He said, ‘I did not know that Paul McCartney had another band.’And you kind of go, ‘The Beatles? You’ve never heard of The Beatles?’ ‘No!'”
She went on to explain that constantly having to “impart” information can become “tiring”.
The 65-year-old actress continued: “So you have to know when you’re going younger, there’s a lot of information that you have to impart. And sometimes it’s tiring.”
But then there’s the other way where you’re like, ‘Yeah, you’re younger, but you look good! Yeah, you’re alright.’ So you never know.”
