Oprah goes too far

“Singer Ricky Martin is on an urgent mission. Our cameras follow him inside the tsunami zone.”

-from an Oprah promo

Oprah, how desperate are you?

Ricky Martin?

This isn’t July 9, 1999, when Ricky and J.Lo were tearing it up before showing up on your show.

“The tsunami zone?”

Great word choice Oprah.

Can more people please exploit the tsunami? Celebrities aren’t helping tsunami victims because they felt a calling from God to do it. They’re doing it because their singing/acting/decorating career is trash, and they want us to buy their garbage because they helped with the devastating tsunami.

Let’s help people who encounter disaster get back on their feet, without helping celebrities get back on theirs. If you decide to donate because “Oh, that Ricky Martin was on Oprah, and it was so touching to see someone like that step away from Hollywood and…,” then you need to evaluate your giving nature.

At least Martha Stewart is stuck in prison. I don’t want to know what kind of bad special she has in mind.

  1. Stooks, you have always reminded me of a white male version of Oprah. If you ever own your own production company you could call it “Skoots”

  2. Mistro,

    Thanks for the kind words? Not sure if that was a slam or not, but thanks anyway. I’ll keep the production company name in mind, but don’t expect any kickbacks.
