More on Oprah's Fall…
Filed under: TV News > Oprah Winfrey > Ellen DeGeneres > Awardz
We mentioned yesterday that Oprah Winfrey's ratings and magazine readership is sliding and that Ellen is hot on her tail for the top chat spot.
Well, there's more to take into account!
Looks like O's Emmy nominations were on the decline this year, too.
Oprah nabbed three nominations — all technical noms (lighting, sound, video control).
Ellen, on the other hand, received eight noms, including nominations for Best Talk Show Host and Outstanding Talk Show.
Ellen is the new queen of chat!
Update: Apparently Oprah didn't submit her name for consideration, hence she's not eligible.

WE LOVE YOU QUEEN OPRAH!!!
Good for Ellen! She is awesome! Oprah on the other hand, her reign is over… finally! She has no one to blame but herself, she turned into any other hollywood star and forgot to focus on the people that made her who she is. Women took her to the top, and she turned her back on them by endorsing Obama.
Ellen is one annoying lesbian ..Oprah is smart and insightful,
only retards would watch Ellen
Well, her dick sucking fest with Tom Cruise really did it for me. Plus, she screams toooooo much on her show. Ellen, on the other hand, is MUCH funnier and more natural.
It wasn't about race until she made it about race. Oprah was a woman who dealt with issues about women- race wasn't her platform. Then a biracial man appears, and without her knowing much more than THAT, she craps on ALL the women. She should have stayed OUT of politics. When you pick a politican (are YOU listening Perez) you will alienate anyone who doesn't like that politican. Oprah is NOT a political comentator-but she tried to be one. But she thinks she is God, because her advisors have to kiss her ass to keep their job. Just like celebrities all over. She is gullible and easily used. I have never understood why her audience, which is 95% white women, listens to her when she is so easily misguided.
Re: She chose Obama – Well said. I agree completely. But I think she was afraid not to back Obama.
You can't have her spot Perez - stop trying to push out all these negative images of her. She'd run you to the ground with just a glance.
I really hate Oprah and think she's a completely fake cunt, but the stupid whore actually stopped putting her name in for emmy consideration years ago, because she won EVERY AWARD, EVERY YEAR, and she said she wanted to give others a fair chance. Anyway, just thought you should know.
"With my dick between those tits, I'd give her a chin glob."
Gail on what she would do if she were a man.
Oprah hasn't submitted her name for Emmy nominations for YEARS you fat ass! Get your shit straight before you start posting bullshit made to look like it's breaking gossip.
What a stink she made over not being able to shop in a swanky department store in Paris. And we have world hunger! Spoiled brat. Maybe they didn't have your size, dear!
O was the Microsoft of yap shows but i guess no mo'
Oprah Winfrey took herself out of the running years ago when she kept winning every year and didn't think it was fair.
Research, Perez, research!
Oprah has evolved.
Ellen does entertainment, Oprah does the deeper stuff.
You won't see Kevin Federline on Oprah, but you have on Ellen.
Not that either one is bad/good, just different.
PH, don't front on Oprah, just ’cause she ain't out.
Bitch is fierce, and has done a lot of good, and made A LOT of money.
Don't front.
Good. she should have been gone 25 years ago, and with her "talent" she should be working at quickie burger.
you are such a dumbass
She hasn't submitted her name for nominations for many years now…I believe even when the Rosie show was on she had already withdrawn her name….
I'm sure she'll be able to weather her "decline" what with those couple of millions she has! lol
Oprah's show sucks b/c she always has Dr.OZ on and he is really creepy, honey remember Dr. Phil and now he has a shitty show because of The big O..Ellen is waaaay better love her show she actually has guests on that I wanna see, did anyone catch David Beckham on her show he was smokn hot…
yearsssssss ago oprah kept winning emmys and she decided to take her name out of the nominations to give others a chance - also, b/c it prob looked kinda obnoxious - her always winning, i'm sure..
She is going down because her white fans found out what a racist pig she is by backing Obama just because he is black. She is a hypocryte for all the times she's accused white people for being racist. She disgusts me now. I can't stand to look at her.
did'nt submit her name, yeah right…this bag of wind lives for this kind of shit
Eat SHIT and DIE you fat 500 pound slob Oprah!!!!
She is complete LOSER! How the hell would ANYBODY want to watch her shitty TV show? It's all out of work people and black housewives anyway!
Nobody gives a crap about this overweight whore!
Oprah, you are what I see when I look at the toilet paper after wiping my ass the morning after a 5-burrito meal at Taco Bell.
Suck it Bitch!
Oprah, you SUCK, I would NEVER watch your show, I hope Obama eats shit and dies in the General Election.
Bitch you can eat my shit.
I'm a Democrat that will vote Republican against Obama, all because you opened your nappy-assed mouth to support the prick!
I remember about 10 years ago, Rosie O'Donnell and Oprah tied for best host. Then the following year, Rosie won it outright, eventhough Oprah was also nominated. I remember that Oprah had tears in her eyes when Rosie won, but I think she was crying because she lost. The following year, Oprah took her name out because, I think, she cannot stand to lose. During other awards shows, Oprah has been nominated, but Ellen has beaten her also. So she will probably take herself out of every award show she has lost because she wants to appear to be number one.
Yea, I think we need some new blood. Oprahs old news and even Ellen is getting on my nerves. Too much gayness in your face. she has definitely overplayed herself.
Perezito, you fool…The only reason Gayle didn't get nominated was because Opie withdrew her name for Outstanding Lesbian Lover about ten years ago!! Get with the program already!!
leave Oprah alone you fat greasy pig. why are you pitting her against Ellen. Let them both be happy for their acomplishments. She's done more than you'll ever do. All youd o is regurgitate otther people's stories, half of them made up or inaccurate. Oh yeah, Oprah endorsed Obama– that's what this is about.
Oprah is such a loser… she makes 250 mill plus a year and gives away little compared to her revenue!!! How about building houses in louisiana at least the size of your garages. Oh and stop the Obama love trip! We are all so sick of your shameless plugs and swaying people just because some of the zombies that watch your show only think what you feed them to be correct. Hillary all the way and the best candidate for all.
I would like to comment to kat on ellen, and i do like ellen cuz she is funny and she is a rich white lesbian, in which i can't relate and she can't relate to poor or middle class african americans so i would certainly prefer oprah anyday cuz she relates to everybody and you can take that to the bank!!!!!!!!!
You fool; Oprah pulled herself out of he nomination pool years ago because she was always winning and she didn't think it was fair to the others.
Seriously Perez Oprah is one of (arguably) the most powerful, wealthy and most influential woman in the world and you're squabbling abut an Emmy! get a grip, Oprah is more than a talkshow, she's built an Empire, she's an Empress! She's the Bitish Empire in it's golden age, she's a Roman.. she has already conquered the mountain. Ellen is like a little fawn suckling at the breast of Oprahs massive Empire. Good luck to her, she is great, but Oprah is the Queen!
ellen rocks, and what's o fucking annoying about her, i mean she is caring, funny, and charismatic. why don't you get off yourself and admit that your a homophob. There are 100's of celebrities who are much more annoying and a bad influence on society, oh, yeah but there striaght huh? so that makes it OKAY.
Re: Donna West –
how is she "too much gayness in your face"?
i watch her show every day, and she hardly brings up about her "gay life" the closest she comes to it every once in a while is gay rights. Wouldn't oprah defend against racism?
they are both different. and it is stupid to pin them against eachother. what i wanna know is why people keep saying "were black and poor/middle class" and therefore we can't relate to ellen. why is it then that "everyone" can relate to oprah?? what about poor white people i guess they can't relate to oprah either then?
i mean it is ridiculous i am getting so tired of this reverse racism on white people, i mean if i (a white woman) said something like "oh i can't relate to oprah cause she's black." people would jump ALL OVER ME> so why is it okay to say that about ELLEN?
i think we should stop focusing on who's black/white or gay/ straight and come up with REAL REASONS why one is better than the other.
PS. ellen and oprah are friends.
stop calling ellen a dyke, that's fucking ignorant, get over yourselves, she's gay .time to move on, and come up with real reasons as to why "ellen is so terrible"
