Biographer: Oprah Called Self Teen ‘Prostitute’ Kelley: Winfrey’s unreleased autobiography detailed adolescent promiscuity

Kitty Kelley, author of a new unauthorized tell-all about Oprah Winfrey, said that the powerful talk-show host has many closely held secrets, and that she called herself a teen “prostitute” in a 1993 autobiography that she withheld from publication because it revealed too many of them.

In her 23-year-career as America’s most influential national talk-show host, there’s seemingly little that Oprah Winfrey hasn’t shared with her loyal viewers. From weight battles and romantic ups and downs to dark childhood secrets, the 56-year-old Winfrey has earned a reputation for candor about her own life.

But Kitty Kelley, the celebrity biographer who developed a reputation as a lightning rod for controversy with her tell-alls on Nancy Reagan and Frank Sinatra, says that Oprah’s life is nonetheless “choked with secrets,” and she digs them out in her new book, “Oprah: A Biography.” Speaking with Matt Lauer on TODAY Monday, Kelley said that in researching her book, she was afforded the opportunity to peruse Winfrey’s own 1993 autobiography, a book Oprah ultimately decided not to release — and that in it, she referred to herself as a “prostitute” during her troubled, wild adolescence.
