After receiving flack for her decision to interview the Kardashian family Oprah explains why she did it.
Ok my friends I had the longest interviewing session I can ever recall, talking to ALLLLLLLL the Kardashians. I had never met them, nor seen the show. I did a full on Kardashian Kram in preparation, watching major shows from every season. I genuinely wanted to know why they have become a cultural phenomenon? Why do so many people love to watch their every move and why do so many others love to hate them. Are they completely ego centered? Are they really "famous for being famous" or is there something more?
I "GOT IT" ... those answers +more. Those of you who watch the show know they hold nothing back. This interview I'd say was another level of forthrightness and honesty. Who surprised me the most? Scott. Lamar and Khloe. Kim.
Everyone who's asked was the marriage a publicity stunt? Why did she leave after 72 days? Her answer leveled me.
Please note that this show will air Sunday at 8/7 central not it's usual time. Followed by Part 2 of my conversation with 50 Cent at 9/8c where he talks about things you wouldn't imagine coming from him. Meditation. Outgrowing his audience. What really matters now. I had a great eye opening experience with him and released a lot of my preconceived notions and judgement. I'm loving this NEXT CHAPTER I get to do for myself what I intended for you the audience: Open the heart space, expand the way we see things, especially each other.
A great day on OWN beginning with Super SOUL Sunday at 11am/10c with Devon Franklin (thanks for your many "likes" on that one) hope you'll tune in. An insightful visit with the Kardashians, every single one of them except 2 year old Mason. Then FIF.

I guess A girl's gotta do, what a girl's gotta do to heep her network. I don't necessarity agree with her interviewing The Kardashians becasue they are already overrated, overegotistical and overexposed, so this will really make them feel "special". And I honestly do not believe the decision was all hers.
And by the way, who cares about 50 cent? Was MC Hammer not available? Bad call.
Oprah used to be my hero...don't get me wrong I still admire her for all that she's accomplished...but she get's the side eye on this one.
In past she would never lower her self to interview people like that...in the past she would never compromise her value system...now...I guess ratings is the name of the game.
I better see a damn ice cube interview soon, what's the excuse? Cube has accomplished so much from moving from the gangsta rap of nwa to now making multimillion dollar film franchise. He writes and directs. Oprah wouldnt give him the time of day. But you run to interview a nasty slore like Kim...I can't! I'll never watch....I'm so close to saying fuck Oprah...but all the powers that be wants that network to fail. I can't let that happen...my conscience won't let me...I'll watch everything but the KArdasian interview.
Eat your fucking heart out beyonce!
Co-sign @ 10:05! Why not interview him? He has made a complete transformation. This family is complete poison and they contribute nothing to society.
FOR RATINGS - why do they think everybody is stupid... your network bombed and you need ratings... uuuhhhh sick of media whores...
No they are trying to cleans Kim K images and they are using people with clout to make your forget about what she has done and how you may view her. None of these people in Hollywood have any real freedom they are puppets waiting to be taken off of the shelves and thrust into the spotlight at anymore. They are trying to remarket Kim because she has made them some good money and that why Kim K is so clueless why no one likes her because she feels that she can manipulate everyone back to her good graces. Propaganda is a mothfker and a big azz lie filled with very manipulating images to push you into a certain direction this is what they called brainwashing and controlling the world.
Who's next? Amber Rose? The entire cast of Basketball Wives?
Oh..Oprah 50 cent and the Kartrashians....
Turn out the lights the party is over dear. What happened to your white friends you worshiped on your other show? No takers? Its going to be a long lonely walk down.....
Would have been a major credibility and validity "come up" had the KarTrashians been interviewed by Oprah even 2 years ago. Now it's pandering at its worse for both sides.
Oprah groveling to people she has looked down her nose at before isn't pretty. Oprah is desperate. Hey, every cloud has a silver lining. Oprah's OWN network is great for insomnia. Try it. You'll be asleep in less then 10 minutes so set the t.v.'s shut-off timer.
I said this before but Oprah has no reason to become desperate she has all the money in the world if she dropped out tomorrow she would still be rich and famous. When she did her talk show it catered to stay home moms who didnt give a rats ass about 50 cents or the Kardasians now that she is airing at a differnt time she is trying to test the waters to see what kind of feed back she would get if she interviewd ppl that seem to peak younger viewers true her ratings are failing but with all the reality dramas being aired she proabbly decided to see if she still has the pull to take viewers away from all that. At the end of it all I bet she gets pleanty of viewers to watch when this show airs. As much as we hate them the Kardasians are still in our face. I am curious to see what Kim will say she does exactly for a living. Regardless O won because everyones seems to have an oponion about the show. That right there is attention grabbing
@10:14 at least O intererviewed Bey when she had a revelant show
Oprah is interviewing these famewhores because someone thought they would bring in ratings for her network. The same with 50 Cents. As long as Oprah had her TV show on the air there was never a chance of the Kardashians getting on her show. Now that her network is failing she's BEEN TOLD to go outside the box and get headliners who stay in the news. She does not run the show anymore her investors do.

Yeah she is rich but often in Hollywood when you stop working the money really stop flowing and then the IRS try’s to come and take the rest. These people have 50,000 to million dollar mortgages and other property. The smartest thing you can do in any setting is to is to pay off your debts when you have the money, even celebrities like Prince who we never hear of having any debt problems house is going into foreclosure. Having money doesn't always be that you can keep that money and most rich people do very corrupt things to stay on that social and financial level that they are in now.
how low will she go
Just for this shit, I'll never watch another show on her weak ass channel. Shit was boring anyway. Just trying to help her ass out. Hope they cancel that tired shit.
black women are bitter. You guys need jesus... all this hate on oprah for interviewing pop icons shows the Black Flag is still plaguing our community. I feel sorry for you women mad at Oprah for doing her job and jealous of the Kardashian's for being successful. We have got to do better, you all!
I don't have to deal with none of that drama! And before you come with that "what about your mother and sisters." They are and were great women and people you all should be taking notes from. I am not against black women... I am against the attitude and plague you guys have. My mother never dated after my father... and most of you women look up to Fantasia and other unwed-single-black mothers for getting their freak on. Sorry for corralling all you black women into one synopsis... but this comments on this site are sickening and more or less the demographic feeling for most of you. Sorry...
That's why I stopped dealing with black women and went over to the Latina's.
Everyone who's asked was the marriage a publicity stunt? Why did she leave after 72 days? Her answer leveled me.
