Whoopi Goldberg was just given the honor of Disney Legend at the D23 EXPO: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. Goldberg already holds the elite title of EGOT (acronym for a person who has won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony) being named a Disney Legend now makes her the one and only LEGOT recipient! Our own Chip Confer was at the Expo this morning to see Whoopi receive this high honor, take a look at the photos below:
Love her showing off her Minnie heels in true Disney fashion!!
“Disney and I go way back, since I was a little kid, I mean way back,” said Whoopi. “So it’s beyond an honor and a joy to become a Disney Legend because everybody knows I love Disney, Disneyland, Disney World, Disney movies, Disney toys and the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique! What’s better than this for a Disney-phile? Absolutely NOTHING!”

Disney fans know Whoopi as the voice of Shenzi the evil hyena from Disney’s The Lion King. Goldberg has also starred as a co-hostess of The View on ABC 7, since 2005.
Congratulations Whoopi, this honor was hard-earned and well-deserved!
