Oprah Winfrey got a "big mahalo" for opening her private road on her property in Maui to help people quickly escape a brush fire that broke out Thursday.
Residents in the town of Maalaea and parts of Kihei were sent an evacuation notice on their phones, and flights to the island were diverted.
"@Oprah there's a huge brush fire on Maui right now! People are trying to evacuate Kihei-my husband and son included!" one resident tweeted. "If you would kindly share the code to your gate/road, folks can evacuate through Kula."
Winfrey responded that she had given immediate access to her private road.

That was mighty white of her...
Is she Trump’s amigo? She used to be, if memory serves.
Would be nice if she would step up to the plate and defend him to the black community and to black females.
“See how magnanimous I am.”
How could she not?
Pffft. She’s a scumbag
One of the global “elite” who will still be dining on wagyu beef in the air conditioned comfort of luxurious restaurants long after the rest of us are forced into eating insects, and sweltering in closet sized apartments.
First thing that came to mind...
This is what any normal human being would do, and that normal human being would not have their publicists making sure it made print.
I saw that coming! LMAO
That was too easy. But funny as heck.
Its serious when Withfries opens her privates
I am sure her fat ass will make sure the world knows she did a good deed.
Damn, one post and my mind is read!
Mighty big of her, too.

We have two vehicles. Besides sop gear in the trunks. I have a long handled 39” bolt cutter in each vehicle’s trunk.
We have a one main road exit and several locked gates to enter and exit fire trails to other road exits.
If the main road is blocked, the landowners, where the gates are, are supposed to unlock the gates. Some do a good job, other either ignore the calls to unlock or ignore them.
These emergency keys work really well.
If it were some conservative politician (I know, living in Hawaii) the framing of the incident would presented a bit differently. (I always liked these)
I seriously doubt that she had a choice, but it did keep them from just running over her property willy-nilly with large equipment.
The road is not Oprah’s it is owned by the city. They opened it up.
Oprah Winfrey opens her private road.
She is such a dear.
Maybe she can take in some “immigrants” too.
