Whoopi Goldberg was the picture of joy as she celebrated her cannabis line over the weekend. 

The 68-year-old star of The View — who recently shared personal insights in her latest memoir — made a rare red carpet appearance with her only child, Alex Martin, 51, in the vibrant beachside city of Venice, California.

The talk show host looked stunning in a blush-toned button-up blouse adorned with hut patterns, paired with matching slacks. 

She accessorized her look with a silver necklace, dainty gold hoop earrings, and her signature glasses. Her raven locks framed her face beautifully, and her minimal makeup highlighted her natural beauty.

Alex Martin, turning heads in a gorgeous black jumpsuit with a floral print, accompanied her mother. 

She accessorized with oversized earrings, a silver necklace, and a variety of silver rings, completing her ensemble with tan sandals. Her glamorous makeup accentuated her plump pout and pink cheeks, while her raven locks were styled in a sleek ponytail.

Emma & Clyde, Whoopi's other cannabis brand, is set to offer items such as edibles and pre-rolls. 

Speaking about her use of marijuana, Whoopi shared, "For people like me, it was always used to stop the [menstrual] cramps – and the side hustle of that is that it was fun, it made you laugh and stuff. They're not taboo anymore because we all know women get a period. We know. So you can either make it hard, which they've done in terms of creating something that helps women... But this [cannabis] we know works," she told Forbes in June.
