Whoopi Accepts Oscars' Apology

February 28, 2008 07:50 am CST 

Whoopi Goldberg has accepted Oscar's apology.

When her 'The View' co-hosts had pointed out on Monday's episode that she was left out of the montage shown in the 80th Academy Awards, the 52-year-old actress became emotional and teary-eyed for the omission.

And then on Tuesday, Oscar's executive producer Gil Cates told People magazine that he would personally call Goldberg to apologize for the oversight.

"Gil called yesterday and said, 'I would have called you Monday but I hadn't slept.' He said 'Listen, I missed it. I didn't realize it wasn't in there.'"

Goldberg became forgiving and excused the error saying they just had a lot on their minds.

"They even missed Brad Renfro and Steve Martin," the first ever African-American woman who won the Academy's Best Supporting Actress says.

"I love Gil. He was the one who came to me and said, "I want to put you in as first female host of the Oscars, let's make history," she adds.
