Add Whoopi Goldberg to the roster of Team Jesse.

The View's Hot Topics got especially heated when the subject of Jesse James' alleged infidelities against wife Sandra Bullock came up…and the Oscar-winning hostess had his back, even going so far as to say she doesn't think he's a bonehead.

"It's nobody's fault. Maybe he was looking for something different," Goldberg says, before dropping her boyfriend-on-the-side bombshell.

"Hey, listen, I did it five or six times," she says. "Yes, I screwed around. Yes, while I was married. I made those mistakes, too, yeah. It happens sometimes. It happens...Maybe he wanted something wonderful in his life but couldn't deal with it."

But that's not the only thing Whoopi has in common with Mr. Monster Garage.

"I have tattoos!" she declares.

"Not over your whole body," Joy Behar interjects. "You've got one."

"No, I have seven," Whoopi confesses. When Joy asks where, she answers, "Wouldn't you like to know?"

Um, that's OK, Whoopi. Thanks.
