It seems like anything this 53 year old talk show host (and much more) touches turns to gold. I mean, she has magazines, a show that is the highest rated talk show in history and was even nominated for an Academy Award. I'd like to hate this woman because she is so powerful, but I have to say, she is much to nice to hate.
This billionaire, who is September of 2007 became the richest woman in the world, has also now been doubed with the title of highest paid TV entertainer in the United States. My lord, it's not a comedy, it's not a drama, it's a talk show! And guess how much she made this past year? $260 million and second place isn't even close. Actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld came in second with $60 million dollars, which is a little more than 4 times less Oprah. And she still continues to donate money, and not just $1000, $10,000, or even $1,000,000. I'm talking about a total of $303 million!
I don't watch her show because being a 15 going on 16 year old boy, I don't find it to "entertaining", well, unless I find out she is giving away free vacations/cars. But to all you people who do, I would say it's worth it.
