Maybe the planned date of the end of the rapture didn't happen, but Oprah Winfrey's exit was certain as she took her final bows earlier this month. After 25 years(wait...thats how old I am), the oprah show is over and I'm extremely upset that I WILL NEVER attain my goal of performing on the show. I guess I'll be alright! Although, I wasn't really a fan of the show and its female targeted topics, there's no denying the impact that this woman has had on the world.
The finale show was a fitting occasion for the legendary daytime talk show host. Only Oprah could draw the biggest celebrities in music, sports, and film. The evening yielded some phenomenal performances as well. Patti Labelle's solo ( I know it was a duet lol) with Josh Groban proved why she is and always will be the queen of the stage, absolutely smashing "Over the Rainbow" as only she can. Now Aretha's falsetto version of amazing grace had me wondering if she'd ever retire. She's proven her self time and time again..but i feel its time to the queen needs to sit on her throne! There were also appearances by Madonna, Halle Berry, Will and Jada Smith, and Tom Cruise. Jamie Foxx and the legendary Stevie Wonder also did a great job on Wonder's hit, Isn't She Lovely, that got the audience on their feet.
And Dear Beyonce, I think you'd do Anything to have a hit record! Girls run the world in my opinion is radio GARBAGE. You have reached millions..there's no denying you have the talent....make music with some substance! DAMN! Great performance though HAHA!
Now back to our regularly scheduled programming......
Another one of my favorites, Usher, closed the show with a medley of O.M.G. and O happy day with the usual and cheesy bring everybody back to the stage finale.
Well although the Oprah show has touched millions of lives and will be tremendously missed, the bright side is I'm sure many women of the world will find something productive to do between 4 and 5 pm.
Shut cho Mouth,
