wheel bearing, ball joint. my first two guesses without more info
well they told me it doesn't make the noise when theres only 1 person in the car but it does make the noise when theres a passenger. makes no sense to me. Only on right turns. I'm thinking the spider gear in the diff ?

Bet it's a loose wheel bearing.

You don't mention what car or year you are talking about. If it is a modern FWD, then I'd say that sounds like a bad CV joint. If an older RWD, then I'd agree with wheel bearing.
