The Devil Told Oprah She Was Too Fat!
Filed under: Fashion Smashion > Oprah Winfrey > Anna Wintour
Before appearing on the cover of Vogue in 1998, the mag's editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, "suggested" to Oprah Winfrey that she drop a few pounds!!
"It was a very gentle suggestion," Wintour tried to sugarcoat the advice during her 60 Minutes interview on Sunday. "I went to Chicago to visit Oprah, and I suggested that it might be an idea that she lose a little bit of weight."
You don't say?!
Anna continued, "I said simply that you might feel more comfortable. She was a trooper!"
Did the Big O lose her shiz at the famously blunt editor-in-chief???
Hardly!
"She totally welcomed the idea, and she went on a very stringent diet. And it was one of our most successful covers ever," Wintour exposed.
Not surprising!
When the HBIC of Vogue tells you to jump, you ask how high!

I wouldn't follow any advice anna wintour gave me fuck her just cause she is the editor-in-chief of Vogue doesn't mean she fucking knows everything.
I SOOOO DO NOT LIKE ANNA WINTOR, FOR SOMEONE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE PRETTY MUCH THE TOP AUTHORITY IN FASHION…SHE ALWAYS SEEMS TO LOOK LIKE SHIT AND SHE IS UGLIER THAN (AND EXCUSE MY SOUTHERN) HOMEMADE SIN! SHE JUST NEEDS TO GET OVER HERSELF A LIL BIT.
I wish she would lose enough to blow away.
IT IS: YOU DON'T ASK HOW HIGH NOT YOU ASK HOW HIGH! PROOF READ
I wonder how high Oprah could jump really?
Everyone else plays "The Emporer's New Clothes" with her, but at least she had the guts to tell the truth!
These days O could give a shit about what that skeleton says. She has her own mag that she can grace at whatever weight she feels and more money than anyone could spend in a lifetime.
a piece straight from us weekly - nice job fatso
It's shocking that the big O didn't murder and then EAT Wintour on the spot!
I'll bet to this day oprah remembers this and plots this womans demise
Anna Wintour needs to go. Long by her sell-by date. Next, please.
LOL! I thought that was apicture of miss New York! She would tell that coat rack to kiss her ass.
No, it's when the Editor of Vogue tells you that "We will make you look like crap on our cover unless you drop weight" you jump. She just played on Oprah's insecurity. It had nothing to do with Oprah respecting her or not.
Well, she was/is too fat. You know, it's not that I have anything against it and I know that it's a medical problem, whether physical or mental, but with celebrities, I don't have as much sympathy for because Oprah is one of the richest women in the world. She can have access to all the finest things, chefs, trainers, doctors, etc. And everytime she makes an issue out of her weight, it is irritating. Like back in the 80s when she went on that liquid diet. You are who you are. Quit bringing attention to your weight loss or weight gain. Yeah, people talk about it, but if she would just let it go, she would be helping herself and the millions of people (not me, personally I can't stand her, she's racist) that look up to her.
Oprah should have called PETA on that bitch.
What?? She told Oprah herself?? Why didn't she just send Anne Hathaway to do her bidding.
fat **ggra?
TEE HEE. I WANNA WORK FOR ANNA AND BE HER SLAVE! TEE HEE. I'D GET LOTS OF FREE CLOTHES AND FREE HAIRCUTS.
"When the HBIC of Vogue tells you to jump, you ask how high!"
Why? She's Oprah, she's not somebody that can be broken. I think if push came to shove Oprah could destroy her, she has a much more rabid fanbase.
I HATE OPRAH.
Big deal. She was fat and she acted surprised when she FINALLY realized how fat she was the last time. Just because her name is Oprah doesn't mean that she doesn't need the TRUTH. She supposed cares about how she looks, so I don't see why she wouldn't want to lose some weight. Is this news Perez?
Re: Medieval Poetry –
Dude, Vogue rocks.
I hope Orcah gets fatter and explode.
and, goes to hell.
Anna Wintour is Cruella DeVille come to life. The photographer caught her on the day her puppy fur coat was at the cleaners, so she had to use a different coat made of pitiful, anally electrocuted little animals. She probably owns many hundreds of such abominations.
