NEW YORK (AP) — Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey headlined Brooklyn’s Barclays Center like an A-list duo Saturday, getting a rock-star like applause from a feverish audience of fans on a stage typically reserved for pop, rap and basketball stars.
It was the fifth tour stop of “Oprah’s 2020 Vision: Your Life in Focus,” Winfrey’s full-day wellness event with WW (Weight Watchers Reimagined) that had the New York venue usually holding concerts at night buzzing with bright-eyed attendees lined up as early as 8 a.m.
It marked Obama’s return to Barclays just 14 months after appearing at the arena for her own sold-out tour to promote “Becoming,” which has sold more than 11.5 million units worldwide and won a Grammy Award last month.
“Does this feel like déjà vu for you?” Winfrey asked. “Because you were here wearing those bad, Balenciaga gold boots!”
“Barack is like, ‘Where are those boots?’” Obama said. “I was like, ‘They’re put away, honey. Just settle down.’”
The former U.S. president was one of the main topics discussed during the wide-ranging, hourlong conversation which, at times, had the former first lady coming off like a comedian headlining a sold-out show.
“All of the people in this room paid money to come out, to give up a Saturday...,” Winfrey said before Obama chimed in with: “And as I said — ain’t nobody twerking onstage.”

The conversation turned slightly political, again, when Winfrey asked Obama what the next chapter of her life would entail.
“President,” some audience members yelled. Others screamed, “White House!”

Hey ocd spammers: Stop obsessing about the keywords and what you think is news or not.
Oprah has a boyfriend now?
I thought Mike was busy shooting those Jack Link jerky ads?
I think the Mooch would run if she thought she had a chance of beating Trump, but she doesn’t. Big Mike might just be eyeing off 2024.
The Wookie has that Rachel Dolezal thing going on.
And Opie shouldn’t be talking weight watchers to anyone!! Has she seen a scale lately???
Oprah has to be jealous that tranny Mike can handle the spike heels and she can’t.
I pi$$ on both those bitc#es
Of course there was a huge crowd. Fans were expecting free stuff under each seat.
Did you have to have an IQ of less than 80 to be admitted to this garbage?
*** BIG LEFT WING DOUBLE OINK ***
So true.
Somehow, The Oprah is looking more masculine in the presence of Big Mike.
Yuk.

Or Trump? Funny how they forgot to mention that POTUS regularly fills venues that rock, pop, and basketball stars would be envious of. Also funny that they didn’t bother to show pictures of this ‘huge’ crowd so we wouldn’t be able to see how small it is in comparison to Trump crowds.
What surprise awaits the O.
