Gossip & Rumors
Gay Schmay -- I'm With Stedman!

Stop the presses -- there's actual photo evidence this morning that Oprah and Stedman are together! The talk queen and her man put rumors of her O-ness' gay relationship with Gayle King temporarily to rest by strolling down the red carpet at the Starry Night Benefit celebrating Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa in Malibu on Saturday night.


Evidence of Oprah and Stedman out anywhere in public had been scarce, to say the least, with the pair pictured just a tiny handful of times since 2000, as TMZ documented last week. But O and her Steddie looked chummy and in good spirits at Malibu's Villa Casablanca as they helped support the benefit that helps schoolchildren with after-school and other experiences.

46. DENY, DENY, DENY. Rock Hudson did it. Liberace did it.. Joan Crawford Marlena Detrich did it., Elton John tried to do it. and the list goes on and on and on. GET REAL MIDDLE AMERICA. There is no way in HELL OPRAH WOULD EVER ADMIT SHE'S GAY. ELLEN , SMELLEN. She attracts a different audience. Much more liberated and excepting. IN AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CATAGORY. This would effect her appeal. Maybe not for many of you who are reading this. But for people living in Wisconsin, Utah or Idaho I think it would. And oviously so does OPRAH.

47. Nice you think being gay is a "fault"....but I don't watch Oprah anymore, and have'nt for years, and being blind by her famous-ness.....Give me a break....of all the people that benefits from who Oprah is...Im not one of them. I see past her celebrity status...this woman is literally changing peoples lives around this world, who otherwise would be condemned without her intervention. I know everyone has faults...I dont believe in people being good....I believe that there is good in everyone....and not even Oprah is a good person...but the good in her has a positive effect on more people than her faults....so in my book....Oprah deserves the recognition that someone who parts with their own money deserves, when benefitting others who don't.....put that in your pipe and smoke it.....

48. Our culture has accepted women having close relationships with women without looking at them as gay. Women for many many years have had close relationships with other women in their lives. They are confidants to each other. Hugging and giving a kiss as a greeting or goodbye is natural for the female. You can see women dancing at weddings, in bars or other celebrations with each other. Because of this acceptance, the majority of women are more emotionally stable, they verbalize their feelings easily to the Oprah or Gayle in their life. If Oprah and Gayle are Gay you might as well call more than I'dsay 80% of the female population as gay.....

49. Who fucking cares? Oprah rocks no matter who she loves-that much is in stone. So why wonder about her personal stuff. Hey, how much money do you have in your checking account? Same Thing. Leave her alone-she ROCKS!

50. Oprah may have gay urges and curiousity, but so does 85 to 90% of all us Americans. Television and movies is leading everyone they can down that road.
She's only human but has alot of money, but God don't care! God sees and punish everyone the same.

52. Why don't we just take a few minutes and pray for Oprah, Stedman and Gayle. They need strength to continue to do their jobs faithfully.

53. OPRAH IS NOTHING BUT A FARSE SHE PAYS STEDMAN TO HOLD HER HAND ONCE IN A WHILE WHEN EVER THE HEAT IS GETTING HOT IN THE KITCHEN. SHE HAS BEEN GAY FOR 35 YEARS.

54. No wonder such SICK rumors of Oprah run amuck. After all ,she does so much for the kids and needy people of AMERICA and other countries. She gives back to her fans, has a GOOD TASTE" talk show, not a trashy one. She loves to help hurting children and people that cannot help themselves. We(all the true people that love her show and what she does) just knew that one day "some sick mind"would want to bring a dark side into her rep. I've had a lifelong friend for over 50 years.Oh me , does that make me gay? I think not! The reason why it seems so strange to "SOME PEOPLE" that someone can have a true friendship like Gayle and Oprah is because the world ,as we used to know it ,is fast disappearing.Now days "WE" (NOT ALL ,MIND YOU) can't stand it if they cannot make up something to bring you down,or hurt your reputation. I think the true friendships of past generations has almost gone astray. Today it's a "get you , before you can get me"mentality. GOD BLESS to "O" and Gayle , and keep up the good work.

56. I totally agree with comment #27!
They need to get a life. They are just tring to bring her down anyway they can.

57. So what if she is gay? Does anyone really care? if she was screwing her bedside table...does it honestly require national attention? she is sending out the wrong messages. Just because she was raped that does not mean go hate men and try to out do them all (including God). HELLO!!!???? Maybe she should START therapy...or better yet fire her current therapist. She's too old to hang on her childhood drama! She's done all of that work with her career, she is starting to look bad. Fire the agent too!

58. I saw on one the tabloid covers that Gayle and Oprah had 'officially' moved in together.........Don't remember if it was The Globe or Enquirer but it was in LARGE LETTERS.
It doesn't matter if she is gay or not........what does kind of matter is the huge farce she's played for years with Stedman as her cover up man. Now we all know if Oprah saw a false headline about her in the tabloids she would SUE............but nothing has been denied or confirmed about Gayle moving in with Oprah.
Several years ago I felt pretty sure Oprah and Gayle were the REAL couple......and Stedman was well paid to be the front 'man.' I've never had a reason to change my mind, so I've always thought she was gay. And Gayle was her one true love.
Oprah didn't get rich and famous overnight...........it WOULD have hurt her years ago if she had 'come out'------now after years and years of keeping the fact from her 'fans' it would hurt to come out and say, 'I've been fooling all of you for years and years with my girl. We are a couple.' So if she REALLY felt there's nothing wrong with being gay, then she looks foolish for going to such great lengths to hide it for so long. But come on! It's pretty clear she's got a 'girlfriend' who is her girl.......Oprah is the dominent one in that relationship. MR. Oprah and MS. Gayle.
Stedman may have finally gotten tired and realized he's wasted the 'prime' years in his life being her cover--so he's the one that leaked it to the press. He wants out of the triangle.

59. Sorry...Oprah doesn't rock. I don't care if she's gay. I was getting so sick of her and then she ripped the shit out of James Frey and i totally hated that!! I'm just waiting for her to rip the shit out of Jay McGraw for disappointing her,
Who in the hell does she think that she is? Maya Angelu? Get off your high horse and back to where you belong Oprah...Retire already...enough of you is enough
