The image of Oprah as America's benevolent earth mother is about to take a serious hit, thanks to -- who else? -- biographer Kitty Kelley, whose book on the talk show queen comes out Tuesday. 
"I was astounded that the woman who seems so open and uninhibited is really so choked by secrets," said Kelley, who interviewed more than 800 people and spent four years researching the book. 
In a short excerpt obtained by the Reliable Source, Oprah comes off as a demanding diva unwilling to lift a finger -- or foot -- if she doesn't feel like it.

    I think Kitty's book is juicy and delicious grist for the mill..:)
For example, I didn't know Oprah had such a good looking father who still works as a respected Barber in west Nashville.
Daddy dearest is talkin trash on Oprah.
He claims she has an unhealthy relationship with Gail...is in Love with Obama and has renounced Christ as her savior..among other things.
I'm lovin it.

    There's no question oprah is a major hypocrite.
 She has made hundreds of millions (billions?) via free-market capitalism yet preaches how evil it is and pushes socialism to enslave the peons that must depend on govt.
 So any negative reporting of oprah's true self is probably highly truthful.

    You are right but we don’t need Kelley to tell us that.

    You know if she could get away with this, she would.

    I have several “conditions” that prevent me from feeling secure on stairs. KK is making this into a BFD, in my opinion.

    Thank you, Joe!
I had visions of Oprah's Daddy, but none compares to the real thing.

    ROFL. Excellent.
A much, MUCH bigger umbrella.
Perhaps one made by Omar The Tentmaker.

    Someday everyone will think of Oprah as big a phony as Obama. The story isn’t written yet...

    Never underestimate the stupidity of the American People.  Never underestimate the stupidity of most women. Fixed.

    Oprah has a sh*itload of money and is going to end up the loneliest woman on the planet one day. Money ain’t worth a thing if you don’t have a life and a family to share it with.

    Since this is KItty Kelley 99.99% of her claims are lies. Ditto. I don't believe a g*dd*mned thing that insufferable b!tch says.
