so take that oprah

If you aren't aware of the latest 'Oprah-gate', then let us enlighten you. Last week on her show, Oprah and her so-called panel of experts finally showed their true colors. After viewing Susan Boyle, the latest singing sensation on the British television show 'Britain's Got Talent', they proceeded to discuss her looks, her hair, the color of her stockings...and basically, Oprah magnanimously offered to give her a makeover.

uh oh.

Check out the backlash of comments on Oprah's website, it's quite amusing. http://www.oprah.com/community/thread/106176

In a wide-ranging interview in the London Times Online, Ms. Boyle said, "I'm happy the way I am: short and plump," and that while she might consider a "makeover later on," "I would not go in for Botox or anything like that."

Susan Boyle, you are our new hero. And Oprah...the phrase "too big for your own britches" seems dead-on accurate for you in so many ways.

People need to realize that Susan Boyle does not need to look a certain way in order to be happy, or to suceed in life. Go away Oprah.
