We already knew what Jennifer Lopez had to say about it, but now Whoopi Goldberg has weighed in on the epic fight between Jay Z and Solange Knowles that occurred in an elevator after the Met Gala last week.

During Tuesday's episode of The View, Whoopi shockingly said that she thought any man has the right to hit a woman if she hits him first. It's not like Jay Z raised a fist to Solange after she punched and kicked him, but what if he had?

"I think Solange was quite ready for him to do whatever he was going to do," she said. "This is the thing: If anybody hits you, you have the right. I know that many people are raised in a different way—but if a woman hits you, to me, you have the right to hit her back." When Barbara Walters then asked if Whoopi was saying this applied to both men and women and Whoopi said, "If I slap a man, he has every right to slap me back."

However, Whoopi then got a ton of flack for her remarks, so she took to Facebook to set the record straight:

"Hey, I know everyone is freaking out like I said that they would when I said if someone hits you, you have the right to hit them back. I didn't say Jay Z should have hit Solange. I said if you hit a man that man has the right to hit you back. That's what I said. I stand by that. If you hit anybody, they have the right to hit you back. This idea that men aren't supposed to hit women — if you slap a man he has the right to slap you back. Now, not everyone is going to agree and I'm okay with that. But that's how I feel. That's why I don't slap anybody."

Well, they didn't pose for photos together, but Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow were definitely both at the Goop event in Los Angeles last night!

The party was for Goop contributor Vicky Vlachonis and her new book The Body Doesn't Lie, and famous guests included Cameron Diaz, Nicole Richie, Jennifer Meyer, Joel Madden and Leslie Mann. Chris posed with Vicky and Jen, while Gwynnie made the rounds with just about all of her guests. They may be consciously uncoupled, but between this and their dinner date earlier this month, they're keeping it awfully friendly!

And not only that, but they're still living together! In court documents for a restraining order Gwyneth filed against a fan, Chris is still listed as a resident at her home. The Coldplay frontman is an "Additional Protected Person" who "Lives w/ petitioner [Paltrow]."

Things look like they are going well!

Charlize Theron and Sean Penn were getting handsy on the red-carpet premiere of A Million Ways to Die in the West. The duo couldn't help but hold hands -- too cute!

Sean was a sharp-dressed man in a sleek suit while Charlize donned a black lace Dior dress over a body suit, Christian Louboutin shoes and Cartier jewelry for the film's premiere in Westwood on Thursday night.

“He’s definitely the kind of person that from afar fascinates me,” Charlize recently told People about Sean.

The film, which opens on May 30, tells the story of a cowardly farmer named Albert, played by Seth MacFarlane, whose courage is put to the test when he falls for the mysterious new woman in town (Theron). Unfortunately, her husband, a notorious gun-slinger (Liam Neeson), rides back into town and Albert must prove his mettle.

She's back!

After a quick trip to New York CIty for the Upfronts, soon-to-be married Kim Kardashian caught the red eye back to Los Angeles on Thursday night. So stylish!

For the long flight, the 33-year-old wore a leather jacket, black top, grey jeans and a Birkin bag.

Earlier in the day Kim and sister Khloe raised some eyebrows with their sexy black dresses as they left their New York City hotel. The dressed-in-black duo headed to the NBC Universal Upfronts on Thursday afternoon. Kim's cleavage-baring dress made quite the statement as all eyes were understandably on her decollage.

In Kim K wedding news: yesterday, we reported that Nori's mom and dad are no longer getting married in Paris, but rather, Florence, Italy! Apparently, Kimye and co. are having a rehearsal dinner in Paris the night before the wedding, and will fly their guests to Italy on private planes for the ceremony.

Not a bad life if you ask us!

Oh baby!

Kanye West recently revealed that his and Kim Kardashian's daughter North West was likely conceived in Italy!

"I adore Florence. I love Italy and the Italian lifestyle. To tell you the truth, I already came to the banks of the Arno [river] with Kim last year, just the two of us, incognito," he told La Nazione newspaper.

"I think that our daughter North was conceived here among the Renaissance masterpieces. It was our first honeymoon. It is one of the most beautiful cities in the world—for me the most beautiful in Europe," he added.

The rapper also confessed that his fiancee is his fashion muse!

"I consult her on elegance and what I wear. And she does the same for me. Today as a musician I like to dress in a less showy way than in the past,” he gushed.

Yeezy is looking forward to his nuptials with reality star, too!

[I'm] very happy. I am a romantic: for Mother’s Day I gave Kim a wall of flowers. Family is everything for me, the antidote to the pressure of fame. Family and creativity relax me. I am happy to create for my family," he explained.

He's never been so chatty!

NeNe Leakes has eclectic style, that's for sure ... but and while we're not huge fans of her black bra with a little bitta lace over it, we still thing this Real Housewife of Atlanta has got it goin' on!



But the real news here isn't the former pole-dancers bodacious, bustalicous frock, it's the fact that she's at the Bravo Upfront in New York!

After playing it like she might not return to the show (and probably working a significant raise from Bravo bosses), everyone's favorite Atlanta peach will, apparently, be back!

RHOA fans, rejoice!

After giving birth to three boys, Gwen Stefani can at least take a break to get her nails done, right?!

The devoted mom and uber-cool pop star hit up the nail salon solo, on Thursday ... I mean, with FOUR boys in the house (including Gavin), who wouldn't want a little peace and quite on a 100-degree afternoon?

The workaholic recently signed on as a judge on the upcoming season of The Voice, as a pregnant Christina Aguilera takes maternity leave. But there's no rest for the weary -- Gwen gave birth just two and a half months ago and she's already signing contracts, y'all. Talk about a working mom!

Demi Moore didn't have her most recent boyfriend, Dead Sara drummer Sean Friday, on her arm last night at the De Re Gallery opening in West Hollywood ... A new bearded hottie appears to have taken Sean's place!

Photographer Bowen Smith was Demi's date Thursday night at the new art hotspot. Maybe the troubled actress is finally getting over Ashton?
