Oprah Winfrey's 'lesbian affairs' and runs cult
A SHOCK new biography claims Oprah Winfrey had secret lesbian affairs and her production company is run like a cult.

Winfrey - who built a billion-dollar empire persuading celebrities down to members of the public to reveal the truth about themselves - is a "big phony:" when it comes to her own past, an explosive new book charges.

FOX news reports that Kitty Kelley's latest unauthorised biography "Oprah" details how:

Winfrey concocted stories about sexual abuse she suffered as a child - and grossly exaggerated the poverty she was brought up in.

She went to great lengths to conceal her "lesbian affairs" - including hefty payouts - and publicly attached herself to Graham to appear more normal to her audience of housewives.



She lavished romantic gifts - including a diamond toe ring - on ABC talking head Diane Sawyer.

Winfrey sold her body to earn extra money and has even described herself as a teen "prostitute."

She doesn't know the true identity of her biological father.

Her relationship with her own mother is so cold that Winfrey won't even let the older woman have her phone number.

Winfrey was born in Kosciusko, Miss., in 1954, and, the way she likes to tell it, she was so impoverished that she never had any new dresses or dolls and had to adopt two cockroaches as pets, naming them Melinda and Sandy.

But her family says that's nonsense.

She may not have been well off, but Oprah was relatively "spoiled" as a little girl, her cousin said.

I always thought her tragic childhood was bunk. You can't be a ho knocked up by an uncle and a student body president and president of the debate team at the same time. She has photographic evidence of the school stuff.

She's as phony as Obama.

Thats why I seldom watch TV anymore. Most people at the top that are allowed to have shows are liars, thieves, perverts, prostitutes, selfish, self serving, egotistical, dirt bags, not worth a second of my time.

It's the same issue with a military command hierarchy. On the one hand people will argue it's necessary for freedom. On the other hand Machiavelli suggests that power and freedom aren't natural bedfellows. You create armies to control your domestic population and having enemies to fight is justification for that.

With all Orpahs money, she probably wouldn't be the one to make stuff up about or she would Own what you own!

Re: Oprah Winfrey's 'lesbian affairs' and runs cult
Don't doubt any of this.

And the crap she passes off on her audience as "self-help," is just designed to keep them where they are. Yup, they'll just keep wishing for things - as if that's going to help anything.

Two concrete things bothered me about her story about abuse and "helping" little girls.

1. She said she visited home and that her father's friend - the one who raped her - was there. Now she didn't demand he leave the home or anything. She said she made them both breakfast???? And her father kept saying, "I don't know what went on between you two."

Something about that sounds so disingenuous. Yes, if she had been a very young girl, she may not have demanded respect and that the man be put out of the house, but when she's an adult and has billions and does stories on victim's standing up for their rights? She can't now say to her dad that this guy raped me and I do not want him in the house or anywhere around me! And where are the charges? She never tried to have him arrested. Why? Because he's friends with her father? Wouldn't that be an even better reason to get him arrested? Or got a restraining order? Or something?

2. That school she built. She goes to all this trouble - overspending on this showplace for the best and brightest "little girls," and they get abused by a "lesbian" on her watch? And no one knows what happened? The story was told to her by these young victims, but does anyone know what they said?

It would be highly unusual for one woman (headmistress) to act like a serial pedophile and abuse many little girls like this. Women usually have different MO's. I'm not saying it's impossible, but that school with the ridiculous overspending on luxuries and isolation of those girls from their families bothered me. The first thing someone does when they want someone abused is cut them off from their families. Plus the fact, these families were complicit and instrument in WANTING their children to get an education! Otherwise they wouldn't have been allowed to attend the school. They were good families, so why was Oprah cutting them off from seeing or speaking to their beloved families?

Makes no sense.

Will be interesting to see what comes out in the trial. The headmistress is suing her for slander and right now, the big fat former drug addict is being forced to testify. No doubt they'll be a gag order due to her bribing someone.

Re: Oprah Winfrey's 'lesbian affairs' and runs cult
Strawman argument. It's not about being a lesbian - it's about the following. And note she refers to this "family friend" again, but she cooks breakfast for him?

O no, not again! Oprah's school rocked by second sex scandal in 2 years

Oprah Winfrey's elite boarding school for girls in South Africa has been rocked by its second sex scandal in fewer than two years.

Seven students were suspended last week for sexually harassing their schoolmates, the "Afrikaans on Sunday" newspaper reported.

One 15-year-old was accused of preying on another pupil and forcing other girls to lie to investigators about it, the paper reported.

"You have been found guilty of physical contact of a sexual nature with another pupil on campus, harassment, bullying other girls on campus and of being dishonest by not telling investigators the whole truth," a letter to her parents read.

Other girls were caught fondling each other or trying to get other girls to join them in lesbian liasons, the paper reported.

Oprah's spokesperson, Lisa Halliday, confirmed the girls had been suspended from the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy School for Girls - but gave few details.

"It is because they contravened the school's code of conduct," she said. "We regard the incident as confidential."

Winfrey called it the proudest moment of her life when she opened the $46 million school near Johannesburg in January 2007 to help high achieving but poor South African girls.

Nelson Mandela dedicated the school and luminaries ranging from songbirds Mariah Carey and Mary J. Blige to filmmaker Spike Lee and actor Sidney Poitier attended the opening.

The school, which aims to house 450 girls in grades 7 through 12 by 2011, offered free tuition, books and uniforms, as well as room and board.

In return, the girls were required to follow the rules.

Ten months later, Winfrey sobbed uncontrollably after 15 girls reported they had been sexually abused by a matron who was supposed to be watching over them.

The talk show queen said the sex abuse charges hit her especially hard because she was raped and molested by a cousin, uncle and family friend when she was 9.

"I am a mama bear when it comes to protecting my children," she said at the time.
"These girls are like my children. That's not just rhetoric for me. I take their futures and the possibility for what their futures hold very seriously."

Dorm matron Virginia Tiny Makgobo, 27, was charged with indecent assault, common assault, soliciting a minor to perform an indecent act and verbal abuse of girls at the school. She denies the charges and is due back in court on June 1.

Vowing to "clean house," Winfrey also fired the school's headmistress and announced she would hand out cell phones - with her number on speed dial - to each student.

It was not clear if any students used their phones to report the latest outrage.
