OPRAH WINFREY RECALLS BEING SUBJECT OF TERRIBLE LIE – (05/14/2020)
Oprah Winfrey is used to false, even ugly rumors. But there was one in particular that has haunted her, she writes in O Magazine. In March, the 66-year-old learned that rumors were swirling that she was being arrested and her home was being raided on sex trafficking charges.
The media mogul explains: “Imagine sitting cozily in bed, propped up on your favorite pillows, 240 pages into a riveting family saga—when you get a phone call telling you you’re trending on Twitter. And you discover it’s a bogus and vile story that you were arrested and your home was raided for sex trafficking and child pornography. I can’t and don’t want to imagine an uglier accusation.”
She admits to being “confused.”
Winfrey says: “I’m in my bed in my PJs and socks, and somehow #OprahArrested is a thing. My worst fear realized. Being slandered, accused of a crime I didn’t commit.”
“My fear of being punished for something I didn’t do stems from growing up being whupped for minor infractions,” she writes. “Accidentally breaking a glass or a dish, getting my Sunday dress dirty, playing in a puddle with my shoes on. Just being a kid. I grew up trying to please everyone to avoid the whipping. It was hardwired in my head.”
She adds, “And yet when a false rumor — or a vile, disgusting attack — is contrived and amplified through social media, I’m still hit with the same anxiety I felt as a child prolonging the walk to find a switch for my grandmother to lash me with.”
Winfrey believes that she may have opened the door to speculation when she went on her talk show in 1988 carting 67 pounds of fat behind her, and opening up about her weight loss journey.
“From that day forward, I was exploited regularly with false, crude, inappropriate stories about me and food,” she says. “And then about me and Stedman [Graham]. And me and Gayle [King]. Anything and everything that could sell a tabloid. Every week, another lie to ignore or deny. I never got used to it.”

ELLEN DEGENERES ‘AT THE END OF HER ROPE’ OVER RUMORS SHE’S MEAN – (05/14/2020)
Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has been hit with a series of allegations claiming she is one person on her show, but the opposite—cold, distant, mean—IRL.
A source tells Us Weekly she’s done. “Ellen is at the end of her rope,” a source reveals exclusively in the new issue of Us Weekly. “She thought this was all just sour grapes from a few haters. But it’s not a passing thing — the hits just keep coming.”
The attacks began in earnest last month when YouTuber Nikkie de Jager said the 62-year-old was “cold and distant” toward her when she appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in January. Then, she was pilloried for moaning about being quarantined in her $27 million manse, likening the experience to “being in jail.”
Variety then hit with a report in which she left staffers on her show in the dark about their jobs and pay during the pandemic, with her former bodyguard publicly deriding her as “cold” and “dehumanizing.”
She is leaning on her wife, Portia de Rossi. “Ellen’s so grateful to have Portia in her life as a soulmate and a sounding board, but that doesn’t mean it’s been easy,” a second source tells Us. “Their home life is strained right now. … Her real friends never ask her to be funny or tell jokes. They accept her as is.”

ED SHEERAN SURPRISES STUDENTS ON ZOOM WITH VIRTUAL MUSIC LESSON – (05/13/2020)
Ed Sheeran took elementary-aged kids at South London’s Ecclesbourne Primary School by surprise after joining their Zoom class taught by his friend, songwriter Timothy Spoerer.
Ed took part in a Q&A with the class and taught them how to play guitar, while also reflecting on his own time at school.
Sheeran showed the kids how to play his famous track “Perfect” on the guitar and admitted that he “wasn’t very smart at school.” “I thought I was an idiot for a very long time,” he said. “I couldn’t do maths, science and English and I was told to be successful in life you had to do those things.” “I loved playing music, that’s what made me happiest. My dad always said to me, ‘If you want to be a musician work really hard at it,’” Sheeran added.
He also told them that he wouldn’t be releasing new music any time soon. “I need a year off not doing anything,” he said. “Getting back to normal life.”
