Get a grip, Oprah...On June 14th, Opera and friends stopped by Hermes in Paris to purchase a gift for Tina Turner with whom she was having dinner that evening. Opera and company arrived at Hermes at around 6:45pm, about 15 minutes after the store had closed. There were people in the store because a private PR event was being set up inside.
The following is a blog by Rosie O'Donnell (You Go Girl) at www.Rosie.com "oprah was turned away at hermes in paris. gayle said it was really really bad she used really twice she saw it - she was there “Oprah describes it as one of the most humiliating moments of her life.” and who would know better than gayle i cannot wait to hear all the details -one of the most humiliating moments of her life…oprah a poor overweight sexually abused troubled black female child from a broken home -that oprah sufferred ONE of the most HUMILIATING momemts of HER life at hermes in paris hmmmmm
The following, my feelings exactly!
..... after-hours shopping is a favor, a perk. Not a right. There's nothing wrong with a store saying not tonight, madame, as long as the reason doesn't have anything to do with skin color. It's okay to say no to a celebrity, even when her name is Oprah. Washington Post, Robin Givhan
