Oprah crosses the line into seriously creepy (possibly NSFW)

That happens a lot around here.

That terrible movie The Color Purple couldn’t help, IIRC Oprah had a lesbian scene in that movie. Of course I was like 14 when I saw it and couldn’t get out of there soon enough.

Where? The only lesbian scene I remember was between Whoopi Goldberg and Margaret Avery’s character Shug.

Maybe that was it then. I don’t remember details, I try to block it out.

No, I got it. :wink: We had almost no chemistry, but she was really into me for about five minutes.

Ah. Then I submit that what you had there was not so much a girl, as a thing that we like to call a “boulder.”

Two big pointy ones actually. ;p

Shouldn’t it have been the other way around?

Ouch! Geez, man, I hope they didn’t fall on top of you. And if they did, I hope you got your rocks off.

Any discussion of Kate Winslet’s goodies is fine with me. To understand Oprah’s reaction, you have to understand what Kate Winslet looks like. It’s not fair to judge Oprah based on what your reaaction to a normal woman would be. Kate Winslet’s image on screen and in photos does her no justice; none whatsoever. She looks good on screen and it’s still not even close. I saw - actually, almost was crashed into by - Kate Winslet in LAX once.

Sometimes you meet a celebrity and are surprised at how plain they are. My best buddy and I once accidentally stumbled onto the set of “girls club,” the fames tw0-episodes-and-out lawyer show, on a San Francisco set, and met Gretchen Mol. She’s really small and birdlike and not at all the sex goddess she looks like on screen. Lots of other celebrities are similarly unimpressive in real life.

But Kate Winslet, holy flurkin’ schnit, I am here to tell you, the woman was standing there in a pair of jeans, a T-shirt and a windbreaker or something like that, and the beauty was enough to kill you. I was amazed; I knew immediately who it was, as she’s pretty distinctive, but at the same time could not believe this woman I’d seen on screen a thousand times before, who was pretty good looking but no more than lots of other actresses, was the apex of feminine beauty I saw before me. You understand, immediately, why every director wants her to show off the goods; she oozes charisma and sex appeal. I was entranced.

She said “Oh, sorry,” and her voice matches her looks. I said “No problem,” stared, and then regained my senses and looked around - and every male in sight was staring at her. Some were drooling.

After I’ve gone gay for George Clooney I’m switching back to straight for Kate Winslet.

I commend your good sense of taste, sir. Because after I’m done with Clooney, I’m going gay for Winslet.

Our interests coincide.

Bow chicka bow bow.

I’d rather just be George Clooney and sleep with Kate Winslet, or be Kate Winslet and have sex with George Clooney. Either is good.

Harrumph. I’ll try not to take that personally. :smiley:

You can be the other if you really want. ;p

Just out of curiosity, how did Ms. Winslet respond to this flattery? (I do not want to have to watch an Oprah clip to find out. My curiosity does not extend that far!)

Evidently she responded by stripping down to a white T-shirt and jumping into a steamy hot shower with Rose McGowan and Kari Byron.

She giggled.

At least she didn’t jump up on the sofa, grab the girls and say “Yes!”

What do you mean “at least”?, you mean “sadly”, don’t you?
