Oprah Winfrey Phone Nazi!

Thursday, February 11th, 2010

Beware everyone, Oprah’s on a mission! This time she has taken up the cause of talking or texting on your cell phone while driving.

She’s being such a Nazi about it I don’t think she would even let E.T. phone home?!?

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not a fan of texting while driving either – I only do it when absolutely necessary, but Oprah wants to ban talking on your cell phone even if your using a hands-free device, which is legal here in California!

Oprah has set up a No Phone Zone section on her website and wants everyone to pledge to stop the “bad habit”.

That’s easy for Oprah to say, she has a driver!

Oprah is Yearning for Zion

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

I got all excited Monday, when I turned on Oprah and started watching what I thought was a Little House on the Prairie reunion, but then after viewing a few minutes and not seeing half-pint, I realised that Oprah was actually at the polygamy compound Yearning for Zion.

This is the ranch that was raided by Texas law enforcement last year over concerns of sexual abuse. It was headed by that crazy guy Warren Jeffs. Never trust a guy with two first names, I say.

First Oprah talked to a group of school kids. They were all very polite and well mannered, but then things got freaky; Oprah asked them if they had ever heard of Mickey Mouse? None of the kids had a clue who he was!?!

Forcing young girls to marry at fourteen is one thing, but to deprive your kids of Mickey Mouse is an outrage! These kids need to be rescued from this compound and taken to Disneyland  A-SAP!

Oprah: Don’t Believe the Skype!

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

Being a part of Oprah’s studio audience is starting to be a drag and the downturn in the economy may be to blame?  I remember in years past nearly every guest was live in the studio, with the rare exception of someone via satellite.

Now, most of Ms O’s guest are live via Skype. Is Oprah trying to trim production costs by not flying her guest in?

Well, on a recent Oprah promo, the queen of daytime was going to have on Kate Winslet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Maryl Streep, and Mickey Rourke. The only one live on Oprah’s stage was Kate Winslet. The other celebs were Skyping from their homes or offices.

It must have been a buzz kill for the studio audience, watching the majority of the show on monitors. I wouldn’t be surprised if Oprah stays home one day and Skypes it in.

Oprah, take some of you $260 million annual salary, and fly your guests in!

Person of the Year – Oprah?

Saturday, December 20th, 2008

Oprah Winfrey is being honored as a ‘Person of the Year’. Why? – you say. Isn’t this the same woman who made Dr. Phil and Rachael Ray a household name?

Although two wrongs don’t make a right, PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) is giving the big ‘O’ the honor for dedicating an episode of her show to her pooch ‘Sophie‘ who died this year. During the episode Oprah shared memories of Soph and shed many tears. PETA eats that stuff up like kibble.

If you haven’t heard already, *NEW* episodes of Oprah return January 5th. O’s gonna teach us how to have our “best life” – in a week. I swear, Ive seen more promo’s for this than the switch to DTV!
