The Oscar-winning actress, who has appeared in over 50 films, said she felt hurt when the magazine feature discussed racial diversity in the Academy Awards, but didn’t print her name once.
“I am embarrassed to say that it hurt me terribly,” she admitted on US talk show The View, earlier today.
The 55-year-old Sister Act star, who won an Oscar in 1991 for her role in Ghost, said she felt “dismissed and erased by the New York Times film critics who should know better”.
She later added: “This is sloppy journalism.”
The Colour Purple star then reached under the table and pulled out her prestigious award, which she slammed down on the desk in front of her.
“Just in case there is any damn question,” she said to rapturous applause from the studio audience.
Goldberg added that she is one of only 12 Hollywood stars to have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award.
