OPRAH AGAIN

Yes, another Oprah item. Now don’t get me wrong, I still view Oprah as a saint, but lately she’s been pissing me off.

I watched her “Legends” event on TV the other night and I was appalled that not only would Miss Oprah admit to being influenced primarily by celebrities, but also primarily black celebrities – and I’m sorry, but just how did Mariah Carey influence you, Oprah?

Now if Diane Sawyer or Katie Couric held a similar event and praised only white women, all hell would break loose. I smell a double standard here and I don’t like it.

And finally, wasn’t it pompous of Miss Oprah telling her guests the dress code was black and white – and then Oprah shows up in ruby red.

Did you catch the comment about the white folks not knowing what was going on when they were passing the microphone and singing their gospel.Oh ya and if you really want to get me going about Oprah let's talk about her pushing her wealth in everyones face.I say good for Oprah on her sucess but do we really need to see her homes and hear how wonderful she thinks she is.I think Oprah is classless.
