NOBODY messes with Oprah!
But we guess Rae Dawn Chong didn't get that memo because the actress recently unleashed on her one-time The Color Purple costar.
And girlfriend didn't hold back one bit as she unleashed on Queen O like it's her job!
While appearing on Matty P's Radio Happy Hour, Rae Dawn started off easy but then bit into O by revealing she felt Oprah was competitive with her and stopped being nice to her after they worked together.
And then the convo took a turn for the worse…way worse. Rae Dawn said:
"If you look at the way [Oprah] looks, she looks like 60 years ago she would have been a house keeper luckily. She would have not been a house n**ger she would have been a field n**ger."
That might be horrible enough, but Rae Dawn couldn't let it all go as she added:
"She's so enormously insecure. If you wanna distill Oprah Winfrey down to like her most basic components. She wants to be beautiful … The thing that’s really great about Oprah that you can't take away from her is that she's a great brown-noser."
Yikes! Totes awks!
We're not sure if Oprah had beef with Rae Dawn, but she might now!
But we're guessing she won't publicly hate on Rae Dawn because she's got bigger shiz to deal with *cough*Lindsay Lohan*cough*.

The nappy ain't gonna be too happy…..
In the late 80s, Whoopi Goldberg toured a stage show here in Australia. Oprah wasn't famous here yet and Whoopi, at the end of her show, went on this really long tirade about Oprah and basically said how fake she was. I was actually kind of shocked, because I knew she had worked with Oprah from The Color Purple. Oprah seems to get slammed by people who worked with her on that movie. Maybe they do know her well, but it still surprises me that they make these public comments.
I noticed some tension between them when they had The Color Purple reunion with all the stars from that movie on Oprah's show. It was basically Oprah comparing how they all turned out to how fabulous her life is right now.
Real surprise she would say all that. Hmmmm……
Right now Rae is not so hot! What the hell happened to her????
I have met Oprah and I do not know why people idolize her SO much. She is a TOTAL fake! I will not have anything to do with any show/movie she is in or anything she promotes if I am aware ofit. Anything that says "As seen on Oprah…" get a pass. WHY shoudln't people dish on the real person Oprah is? So people can just live in their fantasy about her???? All I will say is she is a smart business woman.
Oh please Rae Dawn — When was the last time you were actually relevant? Like 1988
If anyone is showcasing any insecurity, it would be you with these comments. Rather than focusing on what you perceived to be Oprah's "brown nosing" and 'insecurity', you dove right into her looks and demeaned a person for something she has no control over. And what's worse, you slam her by using expletives? Really?
Get over yourself, you're not a big deal and Oprah isn't hearing you because she hasn't been sitting at home wondering how come Rae Dawn doesn't talk to her. You're a conversation, she's a press conference. Your comments have more of a reflecton on you and not her.
Like who cares…. I'm pretty sure Oprah is not the only kiss ass in show business. Obviously it has worked for her. At the end of the day Rae Dawn's comments speak more about who she is than anyone else…..
Who is Rae Dawn? Is she the plump woman in the picture? If she is she should not be criticizing anybody's appearance looking the way she does.
She is not smart enough to know she is trying unsuccessfully to hit above her status and will simply be ignored; just as any other pest would be.
Mr. Danny Glover will be coming to Chicago for the Flashback Weekend horror convention August 9-11, 2013. It will be at the Crowne Plaza Chicago O’Hare 5440 N. River Road Rosemont, IL 60018. I think it would be a great time to be there and do a profile or to have Oprah see him again. I for one wouuld like Danny and Oprah to sign my The Color Purple movie poster.
