Oprah -- Gayle's $$ugar Mama?

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 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.

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

47. In the first place, Oprah didn't "give" all that stuff away, cars etc. She makes it very clear that she approaches the dealers etc, and ask for gifts for her guests. And as far as not helping her relatives, well there are some you can't help.
She does seem lonely, but she is getting older and her bio clock is running out. So that I am sure is depressing for her.
She loves Gayle as only a true friend can do. Let her alone and move on to something with more gossip attached

48. Oprah is wonderful person, she is very giving. She does not have to do all that she does, but yet she just keeps on giving. What a wonderful position she is is, to be able to do so much for other people. Gayle is her best friend and has been for a very long time, I am sure there are fringe benefits to being so close to a wealthy person. Guess what? Gayle is a lucky person! Keep on doing the good deeds Oprah! We need more people in the world like yourself.

49. I feel that they are lovers and just can admit. There is no friend that is going to do that for you unless they want something in return.

50. Like the old guy said to his son in the move; The Color Purple - Who gives a damn?! I am gay. I have a female housekeeper who lives in my house in Florida while I am Up North or overseas on business. Does that mean we are lovers?For the love of God people - FOCUS! It is our own fault literacy is declining when we don't read and then get all of our news in the form of entertainment. The "idiot box" tells us what to think. This is a NON-story. It has no place being discussed in the media or anywhere else. Let's focus on REAL issues like poverty,crime,education, and this horrible war that is sucking the life out of our country.

51. Ophra! Ophra! Why don't you tell the public who you really are? Your a closet lesbian and have been for a very long time. Your relationship with Gayle has been such that for years! You have your male friend who only serves as a cover up for you. Aren't you proud of who you are or are you just a joke? You live two different lives much like Obama Hussin! Your both a great pair! A pair of shi-!

52. You know if people would take care of their business more and stop worrying about others we would have a better world. I think Oprah work for her money and if she want to throw it all in the ocean let her it's hers to do as she please. If she want to buy Gayle or anyone else an island let her. People get to catch up in other people business. And for the people who said she only help black check your facts again or not say anything. I know Oprah doesn't need defending but I get so tried with people trying to run everyone else life beside theor own. Get a life and leave other alone if you are helping someone forget it.

53. I GUESS SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO LIFE OR FRIENDS, BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T THINK THAT HAVING A REAL GOOD FRIED MEANS THAT THEY ARE DIFFERENT. THIS SHOULD BE THE NORM AND YET PEOPLE TRY TO MAKE SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING. shame on us.

56. It's Oprah's $$$ and it's her business where it's spent.
If i had as much $$$ as she does, I might build my best friend a beautiful house too.,
Why not??

Anyone ever hear of GENEROSITY??????

57. I believe Oprah is racist. She never does anything for white people. Even the school she opened in another country was for Blacks. She is a lesbian very racist woman. She has lost so much credibility when she backed Obama. Now anybody who wondered if she was racist now knows she is! Go quickly Oprah and get your sweetie pie moved in to her nicey new flat you just bought her. Go on now.....run.

58. Who wants to bet that at the end of O's Big Give show, the person that wins will be black? Don't get me wrong, I like her, but she won't turn her back on the black people, no matter if they are right or wrong. She's a racist. Plain and simple. She wouldn't have backed Obama if he was white. Open your eyes people. She won't be vice prez------she has to be front and center, not in the back ground.

59. I think Oprah should do what she wants with her money and I never believed they were anything more than really good friends. I have a wonderful best friend who has moved away and I am still sad about it. I would buy her a house in a minute if she would come home and if I could afford it. Jealus people make comments like some of the ones on this website. Shame on some of you, jealousy is a weapon of the weak.

60. I am so tired of the Jeremiah Wright and Oprah how should now better she went to that church. First of all most people have not taken the time to view the ENTIRE clip - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvMbeVQj6Lw&feature=related. If you listen to the ENTIRE clip, he is mentioning actual FACTS that have happened and how a lot of Americans (WHITE AND BLACK) feel about the government's treatment of African Americans, and George Bush. Don't be duped by the media. Why wouldn't he mention the government given Black diseases? YES the government tested syphilis in AL from 1932 to 1972 without telling the Black men what they had or providing treatment to them (The Tuskegee Experiment) And guess what?! There are White, Hispanic, Asian, and African American people in the government! Wow! Maybe he is also saying African Americans have also done things to their own people. Furthermore, I am so tired of narrow minded people calling Oprah gay. Ok, so her friend might live there. Oprah is also a CEO. Do you think Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, or any multi-million dollar corporation would not purchase exclusive property for use of their top executive’s use and business meetings? HELLO, can you say “big A tax write-off? Grow Up people.
