Much of the episode was dedicated to a reunion commemorating the classic <em>Sister Act 2\u2019s<\/em> 30th anniversary, and after performing one of the musical\u2019s standout songs, Whoopi started crying. After the performance, the comedian was comforted by some of her co-stars.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-3\">For the performance, Whoopi dressed in the classic nun\u2019s habit that she wore to play Deloris in the beloved movie. Her co-stars<strong> Kathy Najimy, Wendy Makkena,<\/strong> and <strong>Sheryl Lee Ralph<\/strong> joined the show and also performed as part of the episode. Producers also gathered as many actors who had played the students in the film as they could and brought in young rising performers from LaGuardia High School to fill out the chorus.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe title=\"&#039;Sister Act 2&#039; Cast &amp; LaGuardia High School Performers Perform &#039;Joyful, Joyful&#039; On &#039;The View&#039;\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/71_tjsubweg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">As the performance ended, the camera caught a close-up of Whoopi, and she was clearly very emotional.
