    Hey John Rodz, your comment is really strange. Why would anyone need to be white if she had that kind of money? Have you thought about that fact that she has made that much money because of who is already is?

    Personally Im’ not being a hater…but i agree that Oprah is a sell out to the black community. She’s rich and has millions of dollars, but I’ve never seen her give anything to the hood, Remember? Instead she helps majority of white people and totally ignores her roots. Yet she wanna have a meltdown when she gets fat? Oprah is bored with all that money, she is just a sellout to me. Sorry

  • rich
