Oprah Buys Gayle a Maxi Pad?

Posted Mar 27th 2008 2:05PM by TMZ Staff

Gayle King really could be movin' on up to the east side, to a deluxe apartment in the sky ... and it just might be courtesy of gal pal Oprah Winfrey. We just got -- pardon us -- the skinny.

TMZ has done some diggin' and found Oprah's LLC -- called Sophie's Penthouse -- purchased the $7.1 million phat Manhattan penthouse two weeks ago. BTW, Sophie was the name of Oprah's dog, which just died. And Sofia was her character in "The Color Purple." Good detective work, we think.

Floor planThere are reports Gayle is moving in. A well-placed source connected to the property tells us it's "uncertain" at this time if Gayle will live large in O's pad. Gayle has said she wants to spend more time in NYC to work with O's magazine and her XM radio show.

O had no comment. Gayle's peeps tell TMZ they don't comment on her private life. They leave that to us!

31. When are these two going to come out of the closet once and for all? We all know that they are carpet munchers.

33. I think O paid too much for the penthouse.

(1) The Kitchen is next to the bath-room
(2) See through fireplace peeks into bedroom
(3) The W/D is near the kitchen
(4) The W/D doesn't have its' own room
(5) Must walk all the way around the property to the hot tub from the living/dining room
(6) Only two fireplaces
(7) No outdoors fireplace

The Best: The Wrap a Round Terrace, Lovely!

Enjoy...

35. You people don't know history!! Oprah has been friends with her for a long, long, long, time. Regardless of their relationship... A BEST, truly BEST friend is invaluable in a persons life. The reward and wealth of the relationship out weighs anything material. I think its cool that she has a strong relationship like that, something if we thought about it, we'd all envy.

36. I would do Oprah for a crib like that.

37. Well, they've been life- long best friends ... I think it would be pretty cool to be in a position where you can do something like that for your best friend. I don't see anything wrong with it.

40. No, if any of us had as much money as Oprah, we still wouldn't do this for our pals - unless we were schtupping them. Will someone ask Gayle what it's like to be a kept woman?

41. Oprah is so fake- I have lost all respect for her. She acts like she is so mighty and god's gift to man- Remember when her flop "Beloved" movie came out and she said this is "my gift" to the world- she couldn't be humble, but made it seem like we should kiss her fat feet for gracing us, And then she makes a school for African girls - what about African boys? Why are they neglected - that's reverse sexism! And then on the tv special, one of the girls gets all pouty with Oprah, and asks who will pay for their college ed? Then Oprah says whe will pay for all of the girls in her school to have a college ed too. Well what about all of the boys who never had a chance to go to the school, and what about all of the other little girls that were rejected from going to the school because they can only have so many accepted????

She sucks- everyone knows she is a closeted lesbo- she sends Gayle across the nation to find the best desert and the best hamburger, and live in the best hotels- just to boost up Gayle's ego, cuz she had her own talk show too but it flopped big time and was canceled. Rosie O'Donnell is right in that both Gayle and Oprah are closeted lesbos, and totally FAKE!!!

42. You know I kind of think they probably are lovers. I remember an interview with someone once and the interviewer asked this person if they knew and were friends with Oprah. The person said that yes they had met Oprah and were friends with her and Gayle too. I thought it was an odd response at the time. Responding like they were a couple instead of saying Oprah and Stedman.

43. Big deal!!! My house is 1,000 sq/ft larger than Oprah's. I'm very underwhelmed.

44. Poor Steadman. Having to endure this humiliation in public.
I'll be he wishes Ofrah treated him as well as she does her girly-pal
Gayle. I guess playing her beard doesn't pay that well.

45. OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA .. I CAN'T STAND OPRAH TODAY AND ONCE I LIKED HER. YES, SHE'S GAY AND THAT'S WHY STEDMAN WAS ONLY A TOKEN CAUSE HE HAS HIS OWN MALE AGENDA. YES, HER SCHOOL ONLY ALLOWS THE GIRLS TO CONTACT THEIR PARENTS ONCE A MONTH, SO THAT WHY SOME WERE SEXUALLY MOLESTED VIA OPRAH'S HITLER STYLE. NOW SHE BRINGS US GREAT SPEAKER WITH A NICE SMILE OBAMA WHOSE A RACIST WITH A WIFE WHO SLAPPED THE WHITES IN HER THESIS AND CARRIES IT TO TV BEING PROUD OF AMERICA FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HER ADULT (screw that b*tch's hateful and racist life) AND WITH OBAMA WE HAVE FRAUD REV WRIGHT WHO BOTH HAVE TO AGREE ON THEIR HATE OF WHITES, AMERICA, JEWS, ITALIANS WITH GARLIC BREATH, ETC.. BUT WHO EMBRACE AND GIVE AWARDS TO FARRAKHAN. Thank you Oprah, so very much, you finally exposed yourself for who you really are. Barack Obama hid his beautiful white grandmother who put him through fine schools and sent us his rent a grandma he only saw one with a photo op who is no relation at all. VOTE FOR HILLARY OR MCCAIN OR THE GUY NEXT DOOR .. BUT NEVER NEVER RACIST OBAMA and watch another TV show too, for Ellen is a good kind real hostess, and Oprah is a fraud
