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.

She turned on Trump too. The View turned on Oz also.
Disgusting.
At a time when we need leaders, we have people like her.
Billionaire Oprah, just another out-of-touch Democrat hackhttps://t.co/jEVMIgkxbt— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) November 4, 2022
“ I never liked orka...”
I couldn’t stand her tv show. But if you pointed out her stupidity people called you racist. Dumb white women created the Oprah fad, because they didn’t want to be called racist.
Oprah is a Black racist at heart and she hates the GOP.
I would say 'Party before God'.
The values and beliefs of the democrat party are in gross opposition to both the Spirit and letter of God's Word. Those who support the democrat party are ungodly enemies of Christ because of what they and their party support and defend.
'Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked Him (Jesus) a question, tempting Him, and saying, Rabbi, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind." This is the first and great commandment. - Matthew 22:35-38
"There are six things that the Lord hates, Seven that are an abomination to Him:
Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that run rapidly to evil,
A false witness who declares lies, And one who spreads strife among brothers." - Proverbs 6:16-19
The Lord hates the shedding of innocent blood (killing babies in the womb).
The Lord says it would be better to place a millstone around your neck and cast yourself into the sea than offend (mislead) a child. God hates perverting the identity (sexual and otherwise) of children. - Luke 17:2
God hates the sin of homosexuality - (Romans 1).
To be clear, the Lord does not hate the sinner. - John 3:16,17. His desire is that we recognize we're on the wrong path and return to Him. Jesus told the adulterous woman, "I don't condemn you, go and sin no more".
Acknowledging our sins, knowing they've offended God and/or persons including self and seeking Christ's help/grace to turn from our wicked ways - is God's will for each of us.
Evil persons and evil political parties do not repent of their evil. They double-down on their evil ways as we see in the democrat party.
peerhaps this will comfort the’Oz is not a conservative because Oprah ....’
Oprah is Black and no longer matters.
She was played as a hole card....... a four of Spades
Of course she did! She’s black! She’s a diehard Democrat. Democrats stick together no matter what. Republicans...not so much.
Yes...remember that Dimwit primary in Pennsyltucky when they couldn’t figure out who “won” for months? It was a vote stealing competition. IIRC Bernie Sanders won...then Hillary operatives stole it from him...then Bernie bros. stole it back. LOL!!! The thieves in Pa. have lots of practice!
What a scumbag. She has been friends with Oz for years. She should have kept her fat trap shut.
Only if you allow them to run roughshod over you. Your attitude is wrong. Do you allow yourself to be bitched like that in life or do you defend yourself? Of course you don’t, you fight, Same here, pushback from the sticky floored basement room you exist in and go out and help change your neighborhood into voting smartly, there’s a reason you’re here, I don’t think you are a stupid troll, I could be wrong, so go use and teach others what you obviously have learned here. We have only a few days left to a dim shellacking. We control our destiny, but only if we try. Screw the dims, they are despicable, odious losers.
Party above everything and everyone.
Winery ruined Weight Watchers. Her next goal is to ruin Pennsylvania.
Never liked Oprah.
She is a vile pig, never forget she played a major part in helping the Kenyan take power leading us to this hell we are in today. Think how many people have died as a result from the rising crime, the fentanyl pouring across the border, Russia invading Ukraine while this fat in the closet dyke stuffs her fat face with Twinkies in her billion dollar dyke house
I just looked on twitter, and a whole bunch of people are really, really happy that Oprah is endorsing Fetterman. I mean, who wouldn’t get excited that a washed-up television celebrity is endorsing a Senate candidate in a place that she doesn’t even live?
Several words come to mind, one of which is “uppity”.
The cult comes before family or friends, always.
