Oprah Dodged Bullet So Far

Oprah Winfrey's Montecito estate is not in immediate danger, at least so far.Oprah Winfrey
Her 45-acre estate (which is about three miles from the center of the fire) has not been evacuated, but as one person on scene said, "No one in the area is safe." We're told Winfrey is not in Montecito -- she's in Chicago, taping her show. Her peeps at Harpo say, "At this point, Oprah Winfrey's property has not been affected by the fire."

Also, Rob Lowe's estate is safe, so far. There are scores of celebs who live in that area and the fate of their homes is unknown. As one person on scene put it, "When daylight hits, this story is going to get a lot worse."

34. Her ego is fatter than her ass.
Losing 1 house won't change her.
How many times has she asked a tv guest "Do you get it? I get it." ?
Pompous, elitist jerk she is.

35. Actually she set up the fire because she does not want her wealth to be spread among the people, like her Faux-messiah is promising. So, she rather have her house burn instead

#29, This hate that these people are expressing is embedded in them, which is very unfortunate. There is nothing that you ,me, or anyone else can say to change their minds...It's something that they obviously like to live with...HATRED!!! Believe me you, since Obama surfaced and is now our President, any racism that you might have thought didn't exist...SURPRISE SURPRISE!!!!

38. What would be awsome is if ONLY Oprah's house burned down to the ground, "We don't need no water let that bi*ch's house burn down!!!!"
