“YOU HUMILIATED ME ON LIVE TV — NOW I’LL DESTROY YOU!” — American Idol’s John Foster Unleashes $50 MILLION Nuclear Lawsuit on The View and Whoopi Goldberg After Shocking On-Air Betrayal Forget courtroom drama — this is prime-time revenge. Rising star and fan-favorite from American Idol, John Foster, has detonated a $50 million legal bomb on ABC’s The View and Whoopi Goldberg, accusing them of orchestrating a cold-blooded, on-air ambush that millions of viewers witnessed in disbelief. His lawyers aren’t mincing words: “THIS WASN’T COMMENTARY — THIS WAS A PUBLIC EXECUTION, SCRIPTED FOR RATINGS!” And Foster? He’s out for total destruction. Insiders say he’s dragging the entire View machine into court — producers, executives, and every co-host who “sat smirking like vultures” as he was blindsided. “They tried to make me a punchline,” Foster reportedly seethed. “Now they’ll become the headline — in a courtroom, under oath.” One source close to Foster said it best: “They thought they could humiliate John on live TV. But John doesn’t forgive. He doesn’t forget. And he doesn’t lose.” The fallout has ABC scrambling in damage control mode, with whispers that this lawsuit could rip apart daytime television’s reputation and rewrite the rules of what can — and cannot — be said live on air. This isn’t just a lawsuit. This is a reckoning — and John Foster is swinging the hammer.
