6. A NETWORK OF HER OWN
It’s official: Oprah now owns television—or at least her own network. This past January, Oprah debuted OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network). Specializing in programming of interest to women, OWN features top self-helpers, life coaches, therapists, money managers and other professionals. Naturally, Oprah’s BFF Gayle King has her “own” talk show. In an interview with Barbara Walters just prior to OWN’s debut, Oprah confronted the speculation about her relationship with her bestie, tearfully confessing, “I have said we are not gay enough times. I am not lesbian. I’m not even ‘kind of’ lesbian.” Love hurts. (Even straight-girl love.)
