Oprah isn't perfect??

Outside looking in
We love the opportunity to pass judgment on others, and the voyeuristic excitement of seeing the highs and lows of someone who is living in the limelight.

Too many toys
Thinking about those mink eyelashes made me think about my own possessions. Hmm. What do I own that's more expensive than Oprah's eyelashes?

Build up, tear down
The rich and successful give us something to aspire to, and we love them for it. But they also remind us of what we are not, and we hate them for that.

Hitting the highlife
Oprah may have her days, but who doesn't? I have a lot of tolerance for someone whose benevolence is as far-reaching as hers.

Not the girl next door
Let's be clear: Oprah is absolutely nothing like you (no offense) or anyone you know.
