Lady O - As In Oprah - Superbly Stunts On Front Cover Of British Vogue

On A Career In Politics:

“In that political structure – all the non-truths, the bullshit, the crap, the nastiness, the backhanded backroom stuff that goes on – I feel like I could not exist,” Winfrey says. “I would not be able to do it. It’s not a clean business. It would kill me.”

On Her Fresh Perspective Surrounding Current Events:

“People talk about ‘these are such dark times’, but what if we shift the paradigm? Because I see it differently,” she asserts. “I see, ‘Isn’t this remarkable that we’re waking up?’ For years, women have endured craziness. This is what’s happening to people. They’re allowing themselves to not just become corroded, but to become hysterical. You’ve got to lean to the happiness.”

On The Royal Wedding:

“It left me feeling that anything is possible through the power of love. Reverend Curry was right!” The star also reveals how wedding guest dressing can still be a minefield, even when you’re Oprah.

I Googled, ‘Can you wear white to a wedding? Answer: ‘No, don’t risk it.” In the end, McCartney worked round the clock to remake it in pink, to headline-grabbing effect.
