Oprah is not a nice person. Oprah knows exactly what she does. She never has regrets no matter who she hurts. She feels she’s above it all.

[janparish]

Winfrey was definitely aggressive towards Dolly. Dolly just brushed this woman off brilliantly, like swatting an aggravating fly.

Oprah's credibility has taken a knock thanks to Harry and his wife but Dolly will have our hearts forever.

Dolly is a breath of fresh air. complete class act

[MrDash]

Dolly is a sweetheart and a class act. She took it all in stride. No wonder she’s so charming.

[conradeddie]

Wow ... Oprah surprised me!

First: Dolly Parton needs no defending ... NEVER HAS!

As for McKenzie Phillips: Oprah just because she wrote a tell all HONEST BOOK, gave you NO GODDAMNED RIGHT TO DISRESPECT HER AS-YOU-DID!


Her openness and honesty says McKenzie Phillips has DOES NOT LACK CLASS!

That's how Oprah interviews everyone. She has no class whatsoever I don't know how she made it as big as she did being as cold as she is. Her interview with Prince is pretty painful to watch

[Gen_X_Rosey]

When you've experienced trauma as Mackenzie Phillips has, you don't "dive into it" just because she already wrote the words. You have to ease her into it so she feels a little more at ease about it. I'd have taken my books and walked off the stage if Oprah EVER approached me as harshly and rudely as that. I stopped liking Oprah years ago.

I love dolly she is elegant on opera needs to watch what she says

[lori]

When you're born without a heart like Oprah, you think you have a pretty great brain. But the reason Oprah is so ugly is because your brain doesn't work without a heart.
Now Dolly, there's a big beautiful heart that she processes her intellect through. And that's why she's so wonderful.

[Emily-ckji]

When she tore down Mary Kate and Ashley for their weight? Especially with the understanding they were struggling with ED? It was obvious to anyone who looked what was going on and what they were battling, but she didn't care. That was officially when I threw my hands up and said, "I'm out!" Never turned back to watch her show and don't regret it. I'll see random interviews she does on news channels and entertain them for a while, but if she get back on her high horse I change the channel. She has a stunning lack of empathy for ANYONE outside of her circle. If you can't provide her something, if she can't use you, than she'll drag you down so she doesn't have to deal with you. She has a very good mask and she's good at pretending to be a good person, but she's a case you can point at when money destroys your moral center. I think she used to mean well, but now .. not so much.

[jorollenola]

I do believe that Oprah was trying to shame Dolly but the way she treated Toni Braxton when she declared bankruptcy was deplorable. Oprah is something else.

[TheBmco]

Dollys too good to associate herself with this so-called Opie

[meletiawike]

Why couldn’t Oprah ask the tough questions to Megan and Harry?

[ninademitrieff]

Dolly has more class than Oprah.
Anybody has more class than oprah

[josephinefothergill]

I think people are taking offence at this because O was exactly the opposite with H and M and didn’t even approach anything that might be controversial. Just a comparison between the two interviews shows up the hypocrisy.

[shannonmccarthy]

Have you seen the Oprah and Mary Kate and Ashley interview? It was horrible. Oprah attacked them about their weight. It was horrible. I felt so bad for Mary Kate and Ashley

[jalisatruss]

Oprah Winfrey just crossed the line with Dolly Parton don't be coming for Dolly Parton now she is unproblematic

[maxinefreeman]

Dolly is a national treasure. Dolly has helped more people than anyone.

[GriffithsJacqueline]

Pity she wasn't as blunt with H & MeGain. She isn't liked generally in UK
