O-Dub is full of hot air. Gas, perhaps?
Watch this first, then read.
Done? Okay, rant coming. ... What a hilarious quote by Oprah. I've always had a special admiration for her - she came from nothing, and is completely self made. People who overcome what she has to become a millionaire hundreds of times over deserve lots of praise and respect, and I'm giving her both now.
But, having said that, she makes herself sound like a total moron in this video. Nothing is worse than a celebrity whining about gas prices, much less one who is worth about $750 million, or more. Oprah complaining about a $125 gas bill is akin to Bill Gates bitching about a rise in airline prices. Oh-Dub is alienating the very people who made her what she is today - John & Joan Q. Everyperson.
I can't stand it when wealthy celebs bitch about prices. Matt Lauer and Katie Couric are two other people who do it. When you're pulling in a cool 10 mil a year or more, stop it already. I commute 150 miles a day; gas prices, when they are high, really affect my life and our budget. You know how gas prices affect Oprah? She has a little less lint in her pockets, or her couch. Maybe Stedman should bitch - his allowance probably gets lowered when gas hits three bucks per.
Take a walk, Queen of Talk.
