If you thought every interview Larry King ever did with a celebrity was a butt kissing extravaganza, you might want to set your DVR's for when Oprah interviews Lindsay Lohan. Never known for asking a followup question or doing anything or saying anything that makes a smile go off a celebrity's face, Oprah is interviewing Lindsay Lohan in exchange for Lindsay agreeing to do a short reality series for OWN. Both the interview and the reality series will have no basis in reality. They will not show anything as it is in the life of Lindsay Lohan. Oprah will ask a question to Lindsay and accept whatever answer she gets because Oprah is the worst interviewer on the air since Larry King went off it. Atleast every once in awhile a morning show talking head is sick and some replacement asks a question before they are sent off to Fargo to do house duty at Josh Duhamel's mom's house waiting for him to come home once every two years so they can get a photo.
The thing is there will be tons of people who believe whatever answers Lindsay gives Oprah. If Oprah asks Lindsay if she has ever done drugs and Lindsay says once when I was 18, Oprah will just nod her head and move on. If Oprah doesn't challenge it, then it must be true right? The interview is a waste and all it will show is that these celebrity fluff pieces that Barbara Walters made famous pre-Oscar telecast still exist and that they have a torch bearer in Oprah. I don't understand why she would do it except for ratings. It is going to make Oprah look horrible because all of us who read tabloids will know Lindsay is lying and Oprah won't care.
I could go off all day about this interview. Oh, and as for the reality show, it is going to be a way for Dina to get the rest of the kids in front of the camera. Oh, and church. There will be church. Family meals. Lindsay speaking to a group of kids somewhere. If anyone watches this show for anything other than a quick look, it is as the principal in Billy Madison said, "Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
Omg, the tags on this post...
ReplyDeleteHighly disappointed in Oprah. The reality show though...that's assuming she can get herself out of the bed in the mornings....
ReplyDeleteLMAO! I did not notice until you said something @strawberrygirl! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteJosh Duhamel? ITA that the tags are cray (in a good way :)
ReplyDeletewow enty you love oprah sooooo much.
ReplyDeleteYou know something, it's gotten to the point where I come here, it's more to read the comments than the posts.
ReplyDeleteThe commenters are wittier and more erudite than the Enty(ies).
I second this blondie. I'm kind of in love
DeleteWith you guys. And I won't be suckered into anymore of the videos enty keeps posting from college humor. Not funny, give it a rest.
#Brittany, I'm with you. I love reading what the coomenters post....even Amanda's wig. She's funny.
DeleteWHY does this idiot keeping getting chance after chance?
ReplyDeleteWhen can we just declare her as having blown it, and move on?
Grow some balls oprah...
ReplyDeleteTell me WHY this 'rode hard and put away blitzed our of her mind' sub -par hooker has not yet met her fate?
No one ever challenges her BS
Happy 27 th- i got you membership into a very special 'club'
Enty might be wrong and this could be a whole new side of Oprah. Lindsay may have learned something about honesty in rehab this time around and this reality show may be her way of really conquering Step One - She is ready to admit that she is powerless over her addiction, that her life has become unmanageable. And Oprah sees all of the money that can be made from sponsors such as Valtrex, Suboxone, Trojans, and penicillin.
ReplyDelete@tyger Lilly, I'm kind of hoping this is the case. Addiction is a very tough thing, mostly In the sense that it is a battle with ones self. Until you reach the place where a little voice inside you tells the self sabotaging you that it's time to surrender....it's an ongoing battle. I'm not sticking up for her by any means but it's so much harder when no one around you gives enough of a shit to tell you that you need to change. If this doesn't do it for her, than I truly believe this will be the last we see of her.
DeleteI do not get WHY this trick merits so much restraint in interviews.
ReplyDeleteOprah please don't stoop to this, wasn't that rhianna fluff enough for u??????
This is just a waste of time...no way am I watching this delusional narcissistic mess lie her ass off....I've seen this show before...
Oprah, HOW HIGH ARE YOU? I am serious. Did she bump her head? Maybe she was part of one of those body snatcher alien things and whammy, she lost all common sense? Interview? Why? So she can bash and Blame everything on her father/friends/actors/directors/teachers/cousins/birds/fish/plants/papparazzi? So that her mother can bash and gloat over the same group of people and talk about how her innocent sweet child got mixed up with the wrong crowd and she is lost and alone? Please tell me that Gayle, Stedman, her crew or even her doorman has not said "girl, you sure?" When O interviewed the Kartrashians, I had to think how ad are the ratings at OWN, now, I think we can all see. Won't be watching, because we have seen, heard, read it before.
ReplyDeletePart of Oprah's appeal is that she withholds judgement. An addict is not going to admit anything they're not ready to admit, even to Oprah. Not Oprah's fault. I genuinely believe Oprah wants to help the human race in general and it's disappointing that people rag on her so much. Any interviewer is going to have guidelines set by celebrities as to what subjects are off limits in order to be granted the interview. I'll definitely be watching the interview!
ReplyDeleteLOL I KNEW this would be the 1st post of the day----all together now "traaaaiiiin-wrrrreck"
ReplyDeleteI hope it is more G String Divas than Real Whores of Where Ever.
ReplyDeleteshe did used to ask tough questions of people and look them in the eye, I don't watch her now, but she did get tough, and then would sarcastically go along with the answer. It's not going to be any worse than the Kraptrashians or Real Househo's, has anyone noticed that people are getting dumber and dumber? Is it just America?
ReplyDeleteThe only true reality show about LL would be 24 hours/daily of a camera aimed at a toilet.
ReplyDeleteI'm not into toilet cams. That is a Japanese thing.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand the Josh Duhamel joke? Can somebody please translate? I guess I'm a dumbass today. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteOprah always grated on my nerves during interviews of regular folk because she would always interrupt. But the way she handles celebs is totally all googly-eyed, ass-kissy.
An LL reality show?!? The fuck?
Lindsay always screws over everyone who tries to help her and I expect Oprah to be no different.
ReplyDeleteYou too Oprah? Damn.
ReplyDeleteRe: oprah and lindsay. Its just business. it isnt oprahs job to interrorgate lindsay under hot lights fof chrissakes. We all know whats what. How many times have we heard celeb singing virtues of sobriety while snorting on commercials? I wont be watching anyway so they can go right on ahead with their charade.
ReplyDeleteSince I can't figure out where OWN is I won't be watching
ReplyDeleteOne step closer to winning that Oscar, Betch. One step closer.
ReplyDeleteAre they calling it Dumbfuck Dynasty?
ReplyDelete@MISCH BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAJA!
ReplyDeleteMaybe the question is who is smarter? Oprah for thinking this might bring in higher ratings, or Lindsey hustling oprah?
My money is on lindsey ;-)
So disappointed in Oprah. She's sooo desperate for ratings for her network, she's gotten into bed with The Cracken. Never a wise move. Oprah will just end up looking the fool like everyone else.
ReplyDeleteI lost a tremendous amount of respect for Oprah a long time ago when she threw her considerable influence around and helped get Obama elected. This just reinforces my disappointment in her.
ReplyDeleteOMG! I looooved G String Divas. I wish HBO would do a "where are they now?" Episode, or maybe Oprah could, Bravo? I don't care! Anybody..somebody! At least they, unlike LiLo own it.
ReplyDeleteI am so sick of people rewarding this fucking bitch for being a drug addicted CRIMINAL.
ReplyDeleteFuck you, Oprah.
@bitchiemitchie: Divas is closed more than a decade I think. Some dude killed his wife to get insurance $$ because one of the strippers was milking him dry figuratively and literally in the hotel across the parking lot. This brought extra heat on the joint and it was shuttered not to much later.
ReplyDeleteThe Happy Hour Buffet in there on Fridays stood up to most weddings I've been to. Chef there at the ready to carve you off some roast beef or turkey. It was better than the strippers.
My fave episode of the show was the one where the dude would tip extra on the lap dance to have the stripper knee him and punch him in the nuts.

ReplyDeleteThe way she is dying for attention and now getting a reality show with white oprah I don't think she will be around for another birthday.
ReplyDeleteJust proves that LiLo is exemplary in her carpet munching prowess.
ReplyDeleteThose OWN shows Oprah hands out to redeem her friends are all bullshit.
ReplyDeleteOprah used to do an ok job but these celebrity things she's been doing since her regular show ended are an embarrassment.
I'm expecting her to do this same thing with Paula Deen--probably once Paula's husband dumps her and the legal smoke clears from the lawsuit. She went to Paula's home already once and you'd think they were long-lost sisters.
This will be another way to let Lindsey pretend she's done the work to get better when she hasn't.
