Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay made headlines yet again after he reportedly threw Whoopi Goldberg out of his restaurant in Las Vegas. The incident occurred last night when Goldberg and her entourage arrived at Ramsay\u2019s Hell\u2019s Kitchen restaurant for dinner.<\/p>\n
According to eyewitnesses, Ramsay was in a foul mood from the start of the evening. He reportedly glared at Goldberg as she walked in and muttered something under his breath.<\/p>\n
When Goldberg and her group were shown to their table, Ramsay approached them and demanded to see their IDs. When Goldberg asked why he needed to see their IDs, Ramsay reportedly snapped, \u201cBecause I don\u2019t want any underage diners in my restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n
Goldberg, who is 65 years old, was understandably insulted by this remark and asked to speak with the manager. Ramsay, however, was having none of it.<\/p>\n
He reportedly grabbed Goldberg by the arm and escorted her out of the restaurant, shouting obscenities at her the whole way. Goldberg\u2019s entourage tried to intervene, but Ramsay was in a rage and wouldn\u2019t listen to reason.<\/p>\n
In a statement released to the press, Ramsay defended his actions, saying, \u201cI have the right to refuse service to anyone I want.
\nWhoopi Goldberg is a has-been actress who hasn\u2019t done anything relevant in years. I don\u2019t want her in my restaurant bringing down the vibe.\u201d<\/p>\n
The incident has sparked outrage on social media, with many people calling for a boycott of Ramsay\u2019s restaurants. Goldberg herself has remained silent on the matter, but sources close to her say she is considering legal action against Ramsay.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, Ramsay seems to be reveling in the attention. He has been posting pictures of himself with other celebrities, including Martha Stewart and Shaquille O\u2019Neal, with the caption \u201cNo has-beens allowed!\u201d It\u2019s unclear whether Ramsay is serious or just trying to drum up more publicity for himself, but either way, it\u2019s clear that his ego is as big as ever.<\/p>\n
