Oprah Mansion-hunting in DC
Barack Obama, Bolitics, News, Oprah, Someone We Actually Like
Posted by Bossip Staff
Rumor has it that Oprah is looking for a crib in the District to be by her man, Obama:
OPRAH Winfrey wants to be as close to Barack Obama as possible. Insiders say Winfrey has started a preliminary search for a home in Washington, DC. A nine-bedroom Georgetown mansion she’s said to have asked about is listed at $50 million, but another source said, “She has never personally been to see it.”
We mean, damn, is Oprah trying to be president in a few terms or something? Spending $50 millions stacks on a crib to be near the president (and his wife and kids, might we add) is a bit aggressive, Harpo.

This is a bit strange, if true, but rich people’s lifestyles are so different from our broke *****es. LOL This could be a private getaway she is sponsoring, so that the Obamas have a safe place to go when they need to get away. Celebs are ALWAYS shacking up with one another. George Bush was ALWAYS in Crawford, Texas hiding out, so maybe this will be their version of the Crawford, Texas ranch.

Probably a lie… there’s no house in GTown worth $50 million. Emb*****y Row has homes priced in the $20 mill range, Foxhall probably up to $15 mil and AU Park $15 mil tops. Gerogetown’s most expensive I would say liberally would go for $25 million. But that’s far fetched b/c it would be next to homes that are only 750K plus.
Unless she’s buying multiple homes and doing a teardown/new construction, but even then, it would be hard to reach 50 stacks.
Now, Oprah could buy most of SouthEast DC for $50 mil and build a larger verion of the Shrimp Boat (only DC people would know what I’m talking about).
At the end of the day, we should all be a little smarter and not believe everything we read.
Whatever!
12/19/08, 09:01:am
I like Oprah, but this is just ridiculous. This borders on stalking. And whatever happened to Stedman? Are they not together anymore, or has Gail now officially become Oprah’s live in lover? No one seems to hear from Stedman anymore. If he was a real man “taking care of business,” Oprah wouldn’t be looking to be with Barack in D.C.

If this is true, then I think it’s time for Obama AND Michelle to sit down and have a little talky-talk with Oprah. This doesn’t sound like a good set up at all. I know if I were Michelle, I’d be *****ED.

@ slim
thats another point…no place in dc is really secure/secluded for her. she will be on the outskirts and people would refer to it as dc like they always do…like they did the sniper.

12/19/08, 13:48:pm
This story is so false!! I was born and raised in DC and live in NW DC and there isn’t any home worth that much in Georgetown. I can see the 2M, but not 50M. Anyone from DC know that Georgetown is alright, but if Oprah wants a 50M home she need to move to Silver Spring, Potomac Maryland, Bethesda or Rockville, but Georgetown. No!!

there is probably some truth to the story but i really doubt if she would be in georgetown.

Hey Oprah…although I used to hate your ***** because U wouldn’t kick a sister down with some stacks when a ***** was struggling @ CCC right door to U… love the support for the Obama’s…now U can tell me…which one are U really supporting, Barak or Michelle…just a strong black unit doing things because only one who is half-way decent looking is Barak (plus he’s married…Mock no check for a man with a ring on his hand even if he’s the President of the United States)

O pushed for Obama and she wants(if this is true) to obviously be next to the first black prez. this is history and she wants to be right there for every play by play.And Obama will indeed find her presence uncomfortable but this is what happens when you say yes we can.
I figure she pretty much helped paid to get his ***** in there and now it is time to play.

One of the big criticisms of the George W is that he wasn’t a party guy. The Clintons were known for having lots of parties. Since Washington is Hollywood for Ugly people….I am kinda excited about what having a young president that’s black will do for DC nightlife. I imagine seeing a different sort of crowd rolling through DC. Instead of moving to Georgetown of Md…Oprah should move to Nova…just a few minutes along the parkway. Instead of worrying about Michelle keeping her man…Im more interested in Oprah bringing her money to the DMV and what that might look like???

Get your minds out of your gonads. There is a tradition in Washington, DC of legendary party hostesses. At these parties, presidents and other heads of state can meet each other informally. I’m thinking Ophra wants to join the ranks of Perle Mesta, Doris Duke, Katherine Graham, and become a great Washington D.C. party hostess.

You all are so gullible. You all believe all these rumors. Did it dawn on you that Oprah will do what Oprah wants. Why does it have to be about stalking? She is friends with the Obama’s. She is going to be at the Inaugiration. Could it be that she just wants her own digs so she does not have to deal with the paps/press/ and nosey people? If she has her own place she can visit the Obama’s whenever she wants. Trust BOSSIP to start such rumors and for all of you to fall prey to such rumors. Does Michelle look like someone who is going to let anyone creep with her Mr. President hushand??

If Oparah buys a house in DC it is not because of any hanky panky with Obama, however I feel she will play a large role in a lot of their social gatherings etc.
