Fuck off Oprah

[Morgan C]

Please take her back America.

Oprah's favourite things is one of the saddest things I've seen in a long time. Middle-aged women acting like 13 year old girls at a Justin Bieber concert.

We were kinda hoping you folks could take care of her, if you know what I mean...

This bitch needs to be put in a mental hospital. I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone gets that excited over anyone.
If I were in that position, I'd just think a fan is pathetic for being that obsessed.

Ah well, I suppose I have to be 30+ years old, female, have an IQ lower than 85 and have no fulfilling hobbies/passions in life to understand the obsession.

You have to be 30+ years old, female, have an IQ lower than 85 and have no fulfilling hobbies/passions in life to understand the obsession with Oprah.

I modded this and am stealing it.

This somehow made the news in the UK.

How is that news??

Also, I know she's HUGE in the States and massively rich. You'd think her show would be on a major TV station here in the UK like Jerry Springer, Geraldo, Ricky Lake were back in their days of glory but she's not.

I think she seems like a nice lady though. But yeah, I found the TV footage very cheesy. LOL at Hugh Jackman's entrance. What a twat.

One of the many times i am glad to not watch tv. What really shits me off is the government using our money to pay for the bitch and her audience to come down. The dumbshit housewife exuberance is just expected.

 

[JeffTD]

...the government using our money to pay for the bitch and her audience to come down.

I'd be really, REALLY surprised if your government paid a cent to put this programme on - any sources?

 

[Cyanide_Anima]

Some of the 'books' on her must-read-whatever list are fucking retarded as well. Some of the people she brings on her show are so obviously frauds it makes me sick. Fuck Oprah's sensationalist BS. The only reason she is even so powerful is because there are so many people watching. People go out and buy the shit out of anything she mentions. WTF is wrong with people. lol.

 

[Ermz]

Ground rule. Dont EVER be surprised about anything the australian federal government might do. Cant source hunt now, im on the phone. Just google up and ye shall find.

 

[DeclanWhite]

fuck that shitted me off. all over tv and facebook OPRAH OPRAH OPRAH.

and she gets treated like royalty.. the PM walking around melbourne with her with a zillion people watching them... i dont get it.. is our country full of 'desperate for american vistor' people.

whatever... maybe theyre all just hoping for free cars

Yeah we did. Apparently it's going to increase tourism, which I can kinda see..


And I don't understand ANYONE taking advice about diets or relationships or anything from a fat, racist (arguably, against whites.. who make up most of her audience ironically), single, childless 50-year-old.

Could possibly add in there "one of the richest people on the planet"

She's clearly no idiot. The people that watch her shows are though. You're not gonna change that.

Calling her racist is pretty outrageous. Do you have any shred of evidence to back that up?

I'm not defending her as such. I just don't get what reason you have to hate her? I can think of plenty of worse people out there.

 

[JeffTD]

Holy shit, that's ridiculous. I guess it would increase tourism within the city it was being held, from weird people looking for an Oprah Mecca or some shit, but that's incredibly nutty of a government to do IMO.

 

[bryan_kilco]

Fuck, take Ellen Degeners with you too.

HATE. WITH PASSION.

There's something about a room full of old ladies, screaming at the top of their lungs, over a lesbian lady, who really isnt that funny, and dances to other peoples' music.....that reallllllly makes me just want to kick the door in with a machine gun and be a boss.

 

[Ermz]

Yeh, no shit jeff. The kicker is that its not out of character either. What a pathetic country.

Yeah I'd definitely take 'how to become ridiculously rich and practically a demigod in the eyes of million' advice, but not on the rest.
The racism thing was, as I said, arguable. She's said a few 'affirmative action' type things - blacks need help, all whites are absolutely fine and privileged.

Yeh, no shit jeff. The kicker is that its not out of character either. What a pathetic country.

And the moment we have someone on the world stage doing something meaningful (Julian Assange), we condemn him. Whoop whoop.

 

[Melb_shredder]

To be fair. People worship the ground she walks on. I she says koalas are cool, people will want koalas. If she says go to australia cause it's "AUUUUUSSSSSTTTRRRAAAALLLIIIAAAAAAA", then they'll go

Whaaaat? I love Ellen. She's sane, hilarious, dresses better (in mens clothing) than 90% of the men in the country, and usually has cool guests!

 

[Harry Hughes]

Oh lawd, the diet advice from pretty much any TV show/magazine is bad 99.9 per cent of the time, but it's even harder to take seriously from a known yo-yo dieter that's a fat fuck.
Bet her show probably also promoted those "Ab blaster" things back in the 90s haha.

It's the insane amount of crazy old women that scream their faces off over this lady as she dances to other peoples' music that really just makes my brain quiver. I just do not see the attraction.

Though her wife is apparently smoking hot. :Smokedev:
