VERY Good Friend Gayle King Speaks Out About Oprah Lawsuit

What are BFFs for?
Oprah's bestie and O Magazine editor at large Gayle King is upset about the recent lawsuit regarding the supposed sexual shenanigans on O's private jet.
Former employee Corrine Gehrls alleged that she was fired after two co-workers, including Gayle's daughter Kirby, claimed she had "inappropriate conduct" with the chief pilot. Gayle had plenty to address in a recent interview.
Here are some HIGHlights:
On her daughter Kirby:
"This is a young woman who graduated from Stanford last year who's now working on her master's, so to be characterized the way she's been characterized in this lawsuit is very stressful and upsetting to her and it's just wrong. So when she's upset, as her mother, it makes me upset…Kirby is a young woman who is just starting her life, so this is a very upsetting thing."
On Oprah being a target:
"And it's one of those things that — those of us who are close to Oprah know that she's an easy target for these kind of lawsuits….she's a very easy target, and then if you're in the inner circle, you now become a target."
On the truth of the matter:"But what I also know about these kind of lawsuits, these kind of opportunistic lawsuits, for lack of a better word, is that the truth always comes out," Gayle tells us. "I just look forward to the day that the truth will prevail, and I know it will in this case too. This is what's so upsetting to me. It's characterized like Oprah's running some hanky-panky airlines — nothing could be further from the truth."
We don't know about you, but a "hanky-panky airline" sounds like a good time to us!

Gayle, shut the fuck up!! Is this your 15 minutes??!! Since you have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE!! Get back between Opie's legs and put a cork in it!!
Oh right, your privileged daughter couldn't possibly be a bitch or a liar because she graduated from Stanford and is going for her masters? Makes perfect sense..
Certainly a Stanford graduate couldn't do anything wrong! Least of all one named KIRBY. Most serial killers are highly intelligent, you fucking dolt. p.s. anyone else notice how quickly this site is dying? there are lower double-digit amounts of comments on all stories, used to be in the hundreds on every single one.
Gayle needs stop living in Oprah's shadow and get her own life, what a LOSER!!
Her kid Went to Stanford and the only job she can get is as a Flight Attendant on "O's" plane!
ROTFLMAO! Ahahahahahahahaahahaha
Suck's to Be Her! LMAO!
Hilarious!
Who puts the O in lezbO?
Gayle King— #1 Oprah leech
SO JUST BECAUSE SHE GRADUATED STANFORD SHE CAN'T BE A BITCH OR A LIAR OR A MANIPULATIVE SKANK? YEAH, I DON'T BUY IT. SHE MUST NOT HAVE GRADUATED WITH VERY HIGH SCORES SINCE SHE'S A FLIGHT ATTENDANT ON MOMMY'S "BFF'S" AIRPLANE. I'M SURE SHE DIDN'T EVEN GET THAT JOB ON HER OWN. EVEN YALE GRADUATES ARE LIARS, WHO DO YOU THINK THE BUSINESS WORLD IS RUN BY? HIGH SCHOOL GRADS AND COMMUNITY COLLEGE GRADS? GIMMIE A BREAK PLZ THNX BYE.
The mile high club baby!
What the heck does graduating from Stanford have to do with any of this? What, a person who graduates from a good school can't be a jerk? Silly.
When the HELL is someone gonna push these two out of the closet already???
Hmmm…I wonder how Chris Brown's mother felt when Gayle was bashing her son on Oprahs's show. Here's a young man, just starting out in his life who made a horrific error in judgment, getting lambasted by the talk show queen and her side kick.They showed him no mercy. I'm sure as a mother, that was a very hurtful feeling.
Did she major in coattails at Stanford? If she's so great, why does she need to work for Oprah's airline?
she looks ridiculous, and no one's child is "saint" anything. Oh, take pity on her because she is a young woman starting her life. So take pity on anyone age 17-18, automatically? sheesh. I don't give a rip but I do care that they ate corn dogs. shame shame shame. Those young pigs were just starting their lives too, Gayle. disgraceful.
I hope someone had sex in some restroom. I'm not gettin' any
Who says you can't be a Stanford Grad AND a vindictive little bitch with a star-fucker mentality?
Heard of Brody Jenner lately? Minus the Stanford grad part..lol!
i thought she was oprahs wife
count me out. PEREZ I always was intrested what you had to say . NO MORE. lay down and give it up
Re: St00p!d Bitchassness – APPLAUD APPLAUD APPLAUD
Id totally be bitter too if my parents named me Kirby…..just plain cruel!
hahahaha… hanky panky airline
Why did Gail's daughter graduate from Stanford but is just a flight attendant???
Why would ANYONE give a fuck what she has to say about anything?
this woman is the biggest hanger oner ever.
Hmmm…. What happened to this person's face?? Sorta reminds me of a scene near the end of the genius film "Brazil."
Darling, you should post warnings with some of these bobble-head photos. I was planning to have breakfast. Now, I just feel ill……
Anya Blah, blah, blah The Grand Duchess of Blog-Doom
The woman in question and the pilot both passed a lie detector, let's have darling Kirby to the same…
I guess this article was for all of us that Galye thinks are dumb-asses! Of course she is going to have nothing but good to say about her daughter and her BFF did we really expect anything less from her? Just because it is The Big O being sued! Maybe Oprah should have her staff including Galye and her college bound daughter investigated more throughly before putting them to work. There is always two sides to the story and it's not like T.B.O' can't afford to have this matter investigated more throughly. They claim that Oprah is a target that is true because she has money but another way to look at this is why would anyone in their right mind take on someone as wealthy as Oprah unless ( maybe the employee is telling the truth ) ya think? The pilot has allready settled out of court so there has got to be something to this!!!!I don't give to shits who it is - right is right and wrong is you the the rest of the sentence…Shame on you Galye the only reason you are stepping up is because your daughter was involved and you are trying your best to do damage control. May the truth prevail in a court of law no matter who it is! What if this person is telling the truth then she has been unjustified and has loss her job which like the rest of us she probably needs just so some trouble makers could get rid of her? Wake up O' and start looking outside the box. If the employee is found guilty then she should be punished to the extent of the law.
what a bitch,i'm sure she's just sweet and innocent… just jeaous she wasn't getting any action in the cockpit… Gayle is Oprah's bitch anyway…
Whether or not the lawsuit has merit, if Kirby is a young, intelligent woman just starting out her life, then maybe being a tattle tail/rat/squealer is not the best way to start one out. Everyone has had random hanky panky at a time in their life and they shouldn't lose their job over it. I don't know about you, but Gail's daughter sounds like a little sneaky backstabbing bitch!
THAT IS ONLY BECAUSE YOU CAN'T GET ANY HANKY PANKY ON YOUR OWN LOOSER! EVEN IN THE SKY NO ONE WANTS TO DO YOUR HUGE CHIN! DONKEY HEAD!
You are all morons. What Gayle was trying to say is that Kirby is NOT a flight attendant. I went to Stanford with her as well. She is in Graduate School, she couldn't possibly have time to be a full time member of O's staff and participate in a rigorous academic program. I don't know who or what is perpetuating these lies but this nonsense needs to stop. Let's think about the credibility of a random, opportunistic, pissed off flight attendant or Oprah Winfrey, someone millions of people tune into every day. It's an open and shut case but please do not believe everything you read, especially on this website and other blogs like it.
