Billy Ray Cyrus popped the question to Whoopi Goldberg.
 
During an unaired segment of "The View," Cyrus reportedly asked Golderg to direct and star in the film of a screenplay he's working on called "Paris." 
 
"There's not a lot of movie stuff for me these days, because, apparently, it turns out I'm black, Billy," Goldberg joked, according to the New York Post. "Let's play. I'm up (for it)."
 
The Post reports the Oscar-winning actress has even volunteered to shed a few pounds for the film.
 
Cyrus revealed on "The View" he planned to reconcile with wife Tish Cyrus and his crumbling relationship with daughter and superstar Miley Cyrus has gotten much better.
 
Comedian Chris Rock will also appear in the film, and Cyrus himself will be cast in a supporting role.
