Whoopi explained how she adopted her stage name: "I was a bit of a farter. The theatres I was performing in were very small so if you were gassy you had to walk away farting and people would say I was like a Whoopee cushion. I was sometimes quite noisy."<ref> https://www.hellomagazine.com/celebrities/2017021036551/whoopi-goldberg-reveals-hilarious-reason-she-got-her-name/</ref>
