Katherine Jackson On Oprah (Full Interview)
Talk Diva Oprah Winfrey’s exclusive interview with Katherine Jackson aired yesterday after weeks of hype and build up.
The interview drops a few gems, such as clips from private home movies, Katherine’s recollection of the day Michael decided to get a nose job, and when she forces Joe Jackson to admit he whipped Michael with a belt.
Michael Jackson’s adopted children, Prince Michael I, Paris Katherine and Prince Michael II (Blanket), joined Katherine and Oprah later on in the segment (Part 3). Oprah even interviews Jermaine’s baby mama and their 3 offspring.
I was hoping Paris and Prince would mention how Michael dyed their hair blond when they were younger to make them appear more Aryan. Or whether they thought he was really their biological father. But I guess that would have been too much to ask.
The interview was pre-recorded at the beautiful, sprawling Encino family compound where young Michael and his brothers and sisters grew up after the family moved to the west coast from Gary, Indiana.
The mansion is now home to Michael’s adopted children and Jermaine Jackson’s baby mama and 3 sons. I remember when Michael paid the mansion off for Katherine after Joe Jackson left his mother for another woman. Joe and Katherine eventually reunited.
Critics say Michael would have strenuously objected to his children’s appearance on Oprah — especially since she practically labeled him a child molester while he was still alive.

Lesbian Video: Oprah and Gayle Joke About Being Lovers
It’s about time talk show Guru Oprah Winfrey came clean about her relationship with BFF Gayle King.
Oprah released a video of her recent camping trip to Yosemite National Park with Gayle, in which she joked about the two of them being lovers.
“Let’s just add to that lesbian rumor,” joked Gayle while leading the way into their camper.
“Come on in, baby!” teased Gayle. [link]
They may have been joking on video, but you know behind every joke is a kernel of truth. So I’ll consider this Oprah and Gayle’s coming out video. I love the two of them together.
The sad part is Oprah (a notorious narcissist) can’t go anywhere without taking a camera crew along with her.
Why couldn’t the two lovers go on their camping trip alone without documenting their every move?

Entire Cast of ‘Sound of Music’ Reunite On Oprah
In case you missed it: the entire cast of the classic 60s musical ‘The Sound of Music’ reunited for the first time in 45 years on Oprah yesterday.
The reason the cast never reunited before was due to the narcissism of actor Christopher Plummer who famously hated on the movie and assumed it was great only because he was in it.
Plummer, 80, stubbornly refused to reunite with the cast in 45 years. So it’s a testament to the respect that Oprah commands that she was able to convince him to participate.
You couldn’t be a child growing up in London and not be familiar this movie. We learned the words to every song in school a few years after the movie came out. ‘The Sound of Music’ earned 5 Oscar Awards and a slew of Oscar nominations.
‘The Sound of Music’ merged the beautiful sounds of the Von Trapp children singers (a real family) with the horrors of Hitler’s World War II. It remains the greatest musical ever.

First Pic of Oprah and Stedman (and Gayle) in over a Decade
It’s been a long time since we’ve seen talk show Guru Oprah Winfrey, together with the man she claims is her beau, author and journeyman Stedman Graham.
In the past decade we’ve seen hundreds, if not thousands, of pics of Oprah and her rumored ladylove, Gayle King, together. But no pics of Stedman as Oprah managed to keep him under wraps and out of the public eye.
We almost forgot Stedman existed. But the Getty Images paparazzi caught up with him in the flesh earlier this month, vacationing with Oprah — and Gayle — in the Greek islands.
The trio toured the Greek islands on a private yacht and were spotted on the island of Kefallonia in the Ionian sea, according to the Greek Reporter blog. Oprah swam every day and the locals reportedly described her “nice and friendly.”
But the trip was not all fun and games. According to USA Today, Graham’s mother died on August 10, and Oprah (and Gayle) attended the funeral this past Saturday in Whitesboro, NJ.

Usher ft. Will.I.Am Perform “OMG” Live On Oprah
Usher’s live performance on the Oprah Show today was spectacular! He performed his entire routine without losing his breath or his step. That’s the mark of a consummate professional!
Usher and Will.I.Am performed his #1 hit “OMG” while Oprah giggled like a school girl on the side of the stage. At the end of his performance, Usher tossed his sweaty sunglasses over at Oprah who caught them and put them on! Great performance!
Monique Upset With Oprah
Oscar winning actress and comedienne Mo’Nique is not very happy with talk show maven Oprah Winfrey right now. As you know, Mo’Nique’s brother Gerald Imes appeared on Oprah’s show on Monday where he recalled molesting his younger sister when he was a teenager.
Siblings molesting each other is nothing new to the black community. For most black families it’s a shameless secret that no one wishes to discuss publicly. Rarely does the police or social services get involved since the acts of incest often go unreported until the young victims confide in outsiders.
When I worked as a nurse at a juvenile facility, roughly 50% of the detainees there were incarcerated for molesting their younger sisters and brothers.
But according to Radaronline.com, Mo’Nique denies the molestation ever ocurred — at least not the way her brother recalls it.
Winfrey – who also suffered sexual abuse – wanted to make sure that the Precious star fully understood what her estranged brother would say after he originally approached her to appear on the show. On the show – which aired on Monday – Imes confirmed that the molestation continued for a year or two, starting when he was 13 and Mo’Nique was 7 or 8.
But Mo’Nique believes her brother lied on the show and didn’t convey the full extent of what he did to her. As a result, her relationship with her brother and her parents, who also appeared on the show, is worse than ever.
