Do Tell: When Do You Feel Most Like Yourself?

TresSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 04:00:00 -0800

If this sounds like an Oprah question - that's because that's where I found it!

We all have situations that make us feel uncomfortable and self-conscious and times when we are being ourselves 100 percent. I feel most like myself when I can express myself and least like myself when I'm trying to impress someone. But to be specific, I feel most like myself when I'm in bed on Sunday morning in my glasses, comfy pajamas, drinking coffee and reading the paper.

When do you feel most like yourself? Least?

Sarah Palin to Sit Down With Oprah - Will You Watch?

TresSugar — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:15:00 -0700

During the 2008 election, Oprah declined to welcome sensational VP-candidate Sarah Palin to her couch. The talk show host and very public Barack Obama supporter said she wouldn't have any candidate on her show until the election was over. Now that the election seems like ages ago and Sarah Palin has a new book to hawk, the two will finally have a chat when Oprah interviews Palin on her Nov. 16 show.

I can't wait to tune in to this interview! While Palin makes it clear that she disdains the media's "liberal bias," Oprah hasn't been so shy about having one. Are you excited to see Oprah go rogue with Sarah Palin?

Say What? Jeannette Walls on Secrets and Vampires

TresSugar — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 09:00:00 -0700

A wise friend of mine once said this. They suck the life out of you, but they can only survive in the darkness. Once they're exposed to the light, there's a moment of horror, of recognition, and then poof - they lose their power over you.

- Author and former gossip columnist for MSNBC.com Jeannette Walls in the November issue of Oprah magazine on how secrets are like vampires. Walls should know about telling secrets. Her searing memoir The Glass Castle revealed the harrowing childhood she endured being raised by two eccentrics who could barely keep food on the table. To hear Walls speaking about riding in a taxicab in New York City and seeing her homeless mother rooting around in trash cans, read more.

Say What? The Anti-Oprah Speaks

TresSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 09:00:00 -0700

"But then Oprah came on the scene. She wasn’t beautiful. She wasn’t thin. And she wasn’t light-skinned. She was the opposite of white America’s view of what a black woman should look like in front of a camera. She was no Lena Horne. She was no Lola Falana. She definitely wasn’t a Jayne Kennedy. Who let this woman in the door? And she stormed the whole entire building and took over. And then other flawed beauties came along. Sally Jesse Raphael. Ricki Lake. I mean, who is a great beauty who ever had a talk show?"

- Wendy Williams, former New York-based radio personality, now host of nationally syndicated The Wendy Williams Show, telling Kevin Sessums that Oprah opened the door for unconventional beauties on television. Williams is known for her no-holds-barred approach to interviewing.

Oprah Asks John Edwards About Marriage After Adultery

TresSugar — Thu, 07 May 2009 21:08:48 -0700

I love watching a cheater squirm. Even better when it's a politician, Oprah's instigating it, and his wife is right there. That's pretty much how it went on Oprah today when she interviewed Elizabeth Edwards about her new book, Resilience: Reflections on the Burdens and Gifts of Facing Life's Adversities, which includes life adversities like dealing with an adulterous husband.

Before leaving, Oprah asked John - on camera - if she could talk to him. How could he refuse! He took her into his mansion's full-court basketball court saying, "I played Barack in here." (Nice try!), but she got right down to business: "What did you think when you finished the book?" "What did you say?" "Would you prefer she hadn't done it?" "Were you afraid she'd leave you?" See what he awkwardly has to say for himself.
