Oprah Winfrey is in the news because of her close relationship with friend, Gayle King. Rumors of homosexuality surface yet again, causing a quick, firm response from Oprah. “I’m not even kind of lesbian,” she tells Barbara Walters in an up-coming television special.
The accusations upset Oprah simply because she’s confronted them before. Gayle is a close friend, “the friend everybody deserves.”
Oprah makes it clear that if she were gay, she would simply say so. Hiding who she is isn’t in her make-up and isn’t a healthy way for anyone to live.
Oprah is wearing the pants for being up-front and open about who she is – or is not.
