In a dramatic turn of events, Kevin Costner has reportedly refused to share the stage with Whoopi Goldberg at the upcoming Oscars, telling organizers, “If she comes, I will leave.”

The unexpected demand has sent shockwaves through Hollywood and left Oscar planners scrambling for a solution.

While neither Costner nor Goldberg has publicly commented on the issue, insiders suggest their rift may be linked to recent controversies surrounding Goldberg’s outspoken political views.

Others believe the tension could stem from behind-the-scenes conflicts that have yet to be made public.

The Academy now faces a difficult decision—attempt to mediate the dispute, adjust the event schedule, or risk one of the stars dropping out.

With the Oscars already struggling to maintain viewership, this controversy could either boost ratings or create an even bigger headache for organizers.

Fans are already taking sides on social media, with some praising Costner’s bold stance and others calling it an unnecessary overreaction.

Meanwhile, Goldberg’s supporters insist she has every right to be at the event, regardless of Costner’s feelings.

As Hollywood watches closely, the question remains: Will the Academy find a way to bring both stars together, or will this lead to a dramatic Oscars night walkout?

Stay tuned for further developments!
