Oprah Winfrey to dedicate show to Michael Jackson

Don't know if it was reported here...


CHICAGO — Talk show host Oprah Winfrey plans to dedicate an upcoming episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to late pop singer Michael Jackson.

Harpo Productions announced Wednesday the episode, to air Sept. 16, will feature excerpts from Winfrey's 1993 interview with Jackson. Jackson died June 25 in Los Angeles. His death has been ruled a homicide.

A release from Harpo Productions says Winfrey will remember "the King of Pop with never-before-revealed personal details" from the interview.

The 24th season of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" premieres Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 14 and 15, with a two-part interview with singer Whitney Houston.

One word: CUNT.

Sorry it had to be said. She is strictly doing this for ratings. She had plenty of chances during Michael's last few years to reach out for interviews or even after his NOT GUILTY verdict to support someone, but now suddenly after his death and he is buried in the ground, she suddenly champions him as some african american revolutionary.

What a total phony.

One word: Ratings

More power 2 Ms Winfrey but I've never cared 4 the woman or her show.

her backstabbing behind. Didnt she say she would not support him? Lord have mercy lawd.

Anyway I still love Oprah. Is either u love her or hate her..there is no inbetween but she has one of the most insightful and great daytime shows of all time. She is nothing but a positive thing for television if anything. I dont agree with her past view on MJ but she's human; I dont hate her.

ill reserve all comments until i've seen and heard what she has to say-

because there is something to be said about someone influential who goes off on tangents and then makes an about face for their own benefit

If you have to do something kicking and screaming and tearing down others with your "self love" words- maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place.

Oprah got the biggest dick in TVland. This is good for us MJ fans.

Two-faced tramp.

Not as long as Oprah keeps taking Gayle as her date on Oscar night.

I took this from a old post in mjjcommunity, it goes in detail on all the shit oprah talked about MJ. I personally think it's good for MJ legacy and album sales if she did a show.

A lot of it was during the trial period. Since his acquittal, I haven’t heard her say much about him either. Then again, I haven’t watched her show in a while. I’ll try and list the ahh offenses as best I can and I welcome others to please correct my memory lapses or add something I may know nothing about.

She had a show about unrelated men who share intimate relationships with one another (a deep closeness, no sex) yet continued to insist they were heterosexual. Something like that anyway. One of the men said that he often shared a bed with his friends (again, no sex) and Winfrey laughed and said You’re sounding like Michael Jackson.

Then there was her interview with Chris Rock for his movie I think I love my wife where she pointed out and played a particular scene where the main characters (all Black) discuss (and insult) Jackson, his father, and his case. After that, she asked her audience if White people do this?

During her interview with Lisa Marie Presley, she pondered if Jackson used Presley and joined her in her belief that Jackson took advantage of her tendency to feel sorry for the misunderstood. Winfrey claimed she was the same way and that Jackson sucks you in with his I’m so misunderstood thing.

On an episode about Body Dysmorphic Disorder (an emotional disorder that makes normal looking people feel they are grotesquely ugly) Winfrey stated after quickly pointing out that she interviewed Jackson before his sexual abuse problems that before the interview, Jackson was insistent upon controlling the editing. Of course, Winfrey was also insistent upon controlling the editing and wasn’t going to give way to Jackson. While going through childhood photos, she said Jackson kept hiding his face and saying Oh, oh I’m so ugly. Winfrey says she didn’t know if he was serious about that or if it was a tactic to try and get her to relinquish control of the editing. She showed a picture of Jackson at fourteen stating that she thought he looked fine this way then went on to compare a professionally taken picture of fourteen year old Jackson to a news photo of Jackson during the trial (amid eews from her audience) she proceeded to say that she thought he must have BDD.

Another episode of her show dealt with show business parents. One father said he admired the Jacksons and wished for his entertainer children to be just like them. An appalled Winfrey set her new resident therapist Dr. Robin loose on the guy to tell him how wrong he was because one of the Jacksons is obviously struggling and he shouldn’t want his children to end up like them.

When she had Jay Leno on her show, she asked him What kind of jokes do you tell on your show. (Who couldn’t see where that was going.) He said, of course, Michael Jackson jokes. She went on to ask about his trial experience. When he talked about wanting to crack a few jokes during his testiphony, she ended the conversation there.

Then of course there was the time Larry King asked her if she felt sorry for Jackson. She smiled slightly before saying no.

Like I said before,,,

Harpo's main objective is and always will be MONEY This shouldn't faze ya'll.

And I'm all for it

Love is just like the faucet
It turns off and on
Sometimes when you think it's on baby
It has turned off and gone
