Oprah Winfrey on Thursday night turned on the TV doctor she propelled to stardom - saying she would vote for Dr Mehmet Oz's rival John Fetterman in their battle to be elected to the Senate.
Oz, a Turkish-American surgeon, and Fetterman, the current lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, are neck-and-neck ahead of next week's election.
Winfrey turned Oz into a household name when she appeared on his show in 2003, and invited him onto hers in 2004. He would go on to make more than 60 appearances on her hugely influential daytime show.
Yet on Thursday, the 68-year-old media mogul said she could not support her former guest.
'At the beginning of the midterm campaigns, I said it was up to citizens to vote for who would represent them,' said Winfrey, addressing a virtual voting town hall.
'If I lived in Pennsylvania, I would have already cast my vote for John Fetterman. 'There are clear choices and some dynamic candidates who are working to represent the values that so many of us hold dear—like inclusion, compassion and community.
'So, I ask that voters use discernment and choose wisely for the democracy of our country.'
Fetterman was overjoyed at the news, tweeting in response a heart emoji and saying: 'WELCOME TO #TEAMFETTERMAN, @Oprah!!'
Winfrey's support of Democrats is not a surprise, but her disavowal of Oz will have stung.
The pair first met almost 20 years ago, in 2003, when Oz and his wife Lisa created a medical series called Second Opinion with Dr Oz for the Discovery Channel.

I thought the whole point of this was to get Oprah to be Trump’s VP in 2024.
Fetterman isn’t black.
Friendship is never friendship. The issue is always the revolution.
Fatterman should have instead said “welcome to team stupid, olong with Joe”
I can’t believe anyone is dumb enough to follow what she says.
But then, there are STILL people who watch “The View” so..........
Oprah loves purses.
The Dems could nominate a Chinese menu as candidate for US Senate and Oprah would endorse without so much as a blink.
Orka knows the plan is to replace Festerman with his wife ASAP after the election.
I never liked orka...
A cross between a hammerhead and an Orca.. fitting.
Opera, your true color is showing.
Oprah got the order to support Fetterman from her leader, Obama.
She made her fame and fortune on the stupidity of the suburban white mothers who were duped into believing in her crap and now she doesn’t need them anymore and can go back to being black
Too much Communist...
What would someone expect from a Reverend Wright disciple?
She always creeped me out :P
Of course she does. She’s a hard left Democrat. Always was.
Did anybody ever think she was remotely objective?
I didn’t even know she still has a show. I always hated it and wondered what kind of people would watch it.
When she went all gaga over Maya Angelou my contempt for her increased. What a hack!
Yes, they will......This race will NOT be called Tuesday night
WATCH!!!
