Whoopi Goldberg has branded Kanye West a ‘bully’ for his treatment of Taylor Swift at the MTV VMAs.

Goldberg angrily hit out at the rapper for his behaviour towards the 19-year-old country singer at the New York awards show.

“It was kind of a bullying moment, you do not do that to kids,” Goldberg said on The View TV show.

“Sometimes you can get away with doing stuff, you come out and you take your chances with another adult, but with a kid you do not do that.

“With a kid they are going let you do your thing.”
