A wild viral theory has suggested that Keanu Reeves had refused to hand Whoopi Goldberg a Lifetime Achievement Award – but many are left wondering if it is true. 

The controversy began when a user on X (formally Twitter) named @SaveAmericaNew  took to the social networking site to post something about the two stars which gained quite a bit of traction online.

They posted that the 60-year-old John Wick star turned down the opportunity to present the 69-year-old The View host – who recently reveled who she thinks is Donald Trump’s ‘actual vice president’ – with an honor.

However, the post was quickly debunked by X’s Community Notes.

They wrote: ‘Context. This was a headline in the Dunning Kruger Times which is a known satire site.’

Community Notes is a function on the microblogging site which adds context to potentially misleading posts.

The Dunning-Kruger Times is a satire site which boasts that they are: ‘a subsidiary of the “America’s Last Line of Defense” network of parody, satire, and tomfoolery, or as Snopes called it before they lost their war on satire: Junk News.’

Their website even writes that everything they publish is ‘fiction’ as they explained: ‘If you believe that this is real, you should have your head examined.’

It remains unclear if Keanu and Whoopi have any type of relationship.

However, they did appear on an episode  of The Graham Norton Show in 2017.

Keanu was promoting John Wick: Chapter 2 at the time while Whoopi promoted her Stand Up Live! Tour.

Whoopi has been at the center of a lot of social media hate recently due to her political takes centered around US President Elect Donald Trump.

On Thursday she made waves as she said she  believes Elon Musk is Donald Trump’s true vice president, and not his running mate JD Vance.

On The View, Goldberg theorized Vance, 40, was merely second-in-command on an ‘interim’ basis as she noted Musk’s growing influence over the future administration. 

She questioned why Musk had not yet given up the social media platform he controversially purchased in 2022, X, in light of his affiliation with the president-elect, 78.

‘I believe Elon Musk is the actual vice president. Yes, I believe that,’ she said, adding Vance is ‘kind of an interim.’ 

‘But I believe that Musk, he’s the real actual vice president. He’s making decisions, he’s doing things. So I think, “Why doesn’t he have to give up X?”… I’m musing.’

Trump and his ‘First Buddy’ Musk have remained seemingly inseparable over the last two weeks as the pair attended the UFC match together and Musk joined Trump for family meals and pH๏τos.

Musk has joined Trump on calls with world leaders and, as a member of the administration’s transition team, has weighed in on staffing decisions. 

On election night, Musk and his young son, named X, joined the Trump family pH๏τo at the urging of Trump, and Trump’s granddaughter in the days after said that Musk had achieved ‘uncle status’, reported Politico.

A Trump-Vance transition spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, told the outlet: ‘Elon Musk and President Trump are great friends and brilliant leaders working together to Make America Great Again.

Goldberg, 69, theorized Vance was merely second-in-command on an ‘interim’ basis as she noted Musk’s growing influence over the future administration

‘Elon Musk is a once in a generation businessman and our federal bureaucracy will certainly benefit from his ideas and efficiency.’

Trump had repeatedly mentioned Musk and his space-related feats on his campaign trail.

‘Did you see the way that sucker landed today?’ Trump said in early October. ‘It only needs a new paint job. That’s a lot cheaper than building a new one, right?’

At another October rally, he added: ‘Elon is a great guy, he’s one of our geniuses. We have to protect our geniuses, and we have to take care of our geniuses. There aren’t too many of them.’
