"Only in America can a girl like me find herself walking on a stage like this!" said Goldberg.

Whoopi Goldberg worked the runway for Opening Ceremony’s New York Fashion Week show.

Clad in a black fitted dress with ruffles at the hem and across the shoulders, Goldberg, 60, looked right at home while strutting her stuff.

The show, an election-themed look at Opening Ceremony’s latest presentation, was star studded. Rosario Dawson and The Daily Show’s Jessica Williams were just a few of the other famous faces in attendance.

In tandem with the show’s theme, The View star encouraged the crowd to cast their votes in the November 8 election saying, “Vote, because if you don’t vote you can’t b****!”

Goldberg, no stranger to New York Fashion Week festivities says that she attends the shows to keep up with the times.

We’d say making her debut as a runway model is definitely a step above keeping up.

Work, Whoopi!
