Hot times on Oprah Winfrey's plane!

Oprah Winfrey, the rotund Queen of daytime TV, is being sued by a former stewardess on her personal airplane who was fired:

The plaintiff Corrine Gehrls alleges that Gayle King's daughter, Kirby Bumpus, and the other flight attendant on the jet, Myron Gooch, told Oprah Winfrey directly that Gerhls and the pilot, Terry Pansing, engaged in "inappropriate intimate conduct" during a June 14, 2009 flight.

Bumpus and Gooch?

Gehrls states in the complaint that no such conduct took place and, furthermore, there is no way anyone could have witnessed such conduct since Winfrey and the other passengers ingested sleeping pills and slept throughout the flight.

Oprah is taking sleeping pills? That might explain why she looked like a bag lady (with bag) when she flew over to Denmark to persuade the IOC to give Chicago the Olympics.

 

 

 

 

Gerhls also claims in the lawsuit that Winfrey favored Gooch and turned a blind eye when Gooch and Gayle King shared the jet's double bed on another flight.

Woohoo! Unless Gayle goes both ways, I guess that puts to rest the rumors that Gayle and Oprah are longstanding lesbian pals. 

The complaint points out that Winfrey's only gripe with Gooch was his food ordering skills and that Winfrey allegedly said "[W]hite folks don't know what southern food should taste like." 

Who knew that someone who fed at a trough was such a gourmet?

According to the complaint, Gerhls and Pansing passed a lie detector test and the results are attached to the complaint as exhibits.

Gosh, I missed the big party with Oprah!

And since it is Oprah, it has to be a big party:

She was in Grant Park on Tuesday night with Stedman Graham; pal Gayle King was set to fly in and join the party.

"We want to be there that moment when Barack comes out ... and he is the new president of the United States," Winfrey said.

Her grasp of Constitutional mechanics is as thin as her grasp of most other things that are non-food related. By the way, Oprah says that now she will be "unleashed" to discuss political issues at length on her show. Sheesh, a fat flack for the boy Communist.

Today's Hoot!

Jimmy Kimmel:

Oprah Winfrey is throwing a huge fundraiser for Barack Obama on Saturday on the grounds of the Promise Land — a huge 42 acre mountain-view estate in Montecito, Calif. It’s projected to raise $3 million. Two million of which is projected to come from the “Dunk Stedman” booth.

Conan O'Brien:

In Mississippi, a Taco Bell restaurant had to close after employees found a snake in the restaurant. Witnesses at the Taco Bell said it was the first time they’ve ever seen a snake with diarrhea.

Which reminds me - what's with Mama Obama referring to her hubby as "snore-y and stinky" in the bedroom? It's kind of hard to believe that Mama Obama is a highly paid community liaison for a major Chicago hospital isn't it? You don't think it was a no-show job do ya? Nah, couldn't be since Bubba said the same about Hillary. One does wonder how he knew since they haven't been in the same bed together for years.
