Oprah's Mystery Man Exposed!

The man whose shoulder Oprah Winfrey used to cry on at Barack Obama's victory rally was a total stranger -- but we found out who he is.
Oprah Winfrey
Sam Perry, a corporate development consultant, happened to be in the right place at the right time and comforted lady O as she cried for joy.

Stedman better watch his step.

UPDATE 4:43 PM ET -- O and Perry have already set up a second date -- on her show! He'll appear on Friday's episode.

32. #25.. Yes it is racist. I'm saying this only becasue, and everyone will agree. If 96% of white people voted for McCain, then yes, they would be considered racist. So, the same goes with blacks.

36. That man would never have pushed Oprah away, and none of you would have either. He is obviously someone of importance, otherwise, he would never have been allowed that close to her by security. Some people here are so insecure in themselves. They are scared to death of this black(half) man being president. WHY? If Hillary had won the nomination, then everyone who voted for Obama, and quite a few of you who voted for McCain would have given her your votes. Either way, the republicans were not going to win this one. Not by a long shot. Give it up people...COME TOWARDS THE LIGHT!

38. lyetyga/again: Perhaps it's you that needs the therapy? Have you nothing better to do than worry about what people are saying on TMZ? This website is suppose to be fun and if you have such a problem with what everyone is saying there is an easy solution...DON'T READ IT!!!

40. TWO COMMENTS: #1: This was a HUGE, IMPORTANT day for Oprah and for everyone else that bothered to show up for Obama. Of course you're not going to pay attention to the person next to you leaning on you out of excitement ! I THINK EVERYONE THERE WAS EXCITED - and just in a happy, loving mood and they accepted their fellow American hugging and leaning in to them. #2: Listen - to all posters that get upset at all the hatred and insults on these posts... THIS SITE IS FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY !! DUH !!! don't you get it ??? This is where everyone is free to say whatever is on their mind - even if it's stupid or insulting! THAT'S WHAT THIS SITE IS FOR ! If you don't like the insults - then get your a$$ on MSNBC'S WEBSITE !! IDIOT !!!!

41. Oh-oh #32, you just spewed on people for spewing on people. Have you signed up for therapy yet? Tell your therapist you may be experiencing heavy cognitive dissonance.

42. in her defense, i can see how it happened - i was somewhere, we were all excited, the guy next to me smiled, like an angel, and he was the PERFECT height and size for me to wrap my arms around [like big bear types] we stayed 'spooned' till the event was over - when we were done, we said goodbye .. and that was that - in the parking lot i couldn't convince my colleagues that i never met him before as we were so comfortable -- sometimes IT BEES LIKE DAT .. plus, he just got a free trip [hotel/car service, possible gifts] for being unselfish with his shoulder :) stedman did look pissed but he shouldn't be all 6'5, she can't lean on him ..

43. Steadman was standing right behind Oprah with his arms wrapped around her.

Yes another well educated black person I can see. What an ass you are, go cash your welfare check.

45. Who cares! Oprah bought Obama this presidency and the stupid Americans who voted for him were suckered into believing he is the second coming of Christ. I can't wait until he falls on his face, unfortunately at the price of America. When is he going to start paying everyone's mortgage and gas bill? He will not spread my wealth, the little that I have, I've worked hard for it. He can get it from Oprah, Springsteen, Diddy, and the rest of Hollywood. Stupid Ellen, the same people that put your great savior in office also voted against gay marriage. The majority of the voters who voted against Prop 8 were blacks and hispanics. I'm going to enjoy the next four years. Paybacks a B****!
