Well, there's no sugarcoating this.

Oprah got FAT again, y'all!

The plus-sized talk show host showed off her very full figure at the opening of Tyler Perry's new film and TV studio in Atlanta this past weekend.

Is she gonna blame this on her thyroid again????

The problems that arose at Oprah Winfrey's South African Leadership Academy for Girls are still haunting the talk show queen.

On Friday, Nomvuyo Mzamane (the school's former headmistress), who was terminated when the abuse charges at the school came to light, filed a lawsuit against O.

Mzamane is attempting to 'salvage her professional reputation' by suing in Philadelphia civil court.

Papers filed say Winfrey "launched what amounted to a defamatory campaign" against Mzamane late last year by implying that Mzamane is "untrustworthy, failed the students of the academy, did not care about the students at the academy, knew of alleged physical and sexual abuse at the academy and participated in a cover-up of the alleged abuse."

Mzamane has said there was no cover-up at the school and she knew nothing about the allegations.

She was supposedly on a business trip in the U.S. when she found out about the abuse.

Also, Oprah is not the only one named in the lawsuit.

Arianna Huffington's blog, the Huffington Post, is also named as a defendant.

The suit filed is asking for a quarter million dollars, plus damages.

We smell a settlement in the air!

And including Huffington in the suit is bull!

As we mentioned last month, Oprah Winfrey's mother, Vernita Lee, reportedly owes over $155,000 to a high-end fashion store in Wisconsin.

And, since she owes so much and hasn't paid up, the store, Valentina, Inc, is suing Momma O's momma.

Lee was supposed to pay monthly installments of $2,000 to cover the $155,547 in purchases, plus interest, and hasn't paid since July 1st.

At the time, Lee would enjoy private showings, special delivery services, and perks from the store. She also had her open-ended charge account with them, since January 2004.

But now Lee says she shouldn't have to pay the bill!

The reason?

Apparently Lee believes the store officials never should have extended credit to her.

That's not a reason why not to pay up!

So, Lee has now filed a counterclaim as of last Friday, where she contends that Valentina took advantage of her "lack of knowledge, ability, and-or capacity" when creating her credit account.

WHAT?!?!

Is she saying she doesn't know HOW to use a credit account? Because it seems pretty obvious to us.

What you buy, you must eventually pay for!

According to Lee, she resolved a 2002 case with the company over a $175,000 bill.

That resolution prohibited Valentina from extending any further credit to her.

SHADY!!

In 2002, Lee was ordered to pay $35,000 upfront and also make monthly payments of $5,000 until her other past-due bill of $174,285 was paid for.

So, as part of the resolution in 2002, the court order which dismissed the case stated, "Valentina Boutique, Inc., shall not at any time extend further store credit to the Defendant, Vernita Lee."

So the 2002 case was dismissed as long as Lee made the payments, which she did.

And, now in her counterclaim, Lee is asking the court to award her damages including twice the amount of any finance charge on the account, plus her attorney fees.

So Lee's been in this same situation with the same company? And she knew she shouldn't get credit from the store if she couldn't pay up, but she took it anyway. And now doesn't want to pay.

That's messed up.

Oprah wouldn't approve!

And the store is stoopid for giving her the credit the second time around - bit not too stoopid. We're sure they were hoping O would bail her momma out!

Rumors were circulating that Miz Mariah Carey was set to appear on Oprah Winfrey's show this Friday.

The plan? For Mimi to announce that she's pregnant!

But many people were skeptical of this.

And now, a spokesperson for O's show is finally speaking out and saying that's not happening.

The rep swears that there are no scheduled plans to have Mariah appear on the show now or in the immediate future.

As for Mariah's side, her reps have also been denying any pregnancy rumors, which have been around ever since she quickly married Nick Cannon.

Could Mariah really be sperminated already?

What do U think?

We bet Megan Fox wishes she could eat her "Fuck Disney" words.

The Mickey Mouse empire unveiled a bunch of new projects at a flashy showcase at the Kodak Theater on Wednesday.

Besides an impressive clip reel of all of Disney's future releases, the event also featured the cast of High School Musical, Dwayne Johnson, Miley Cyrus, John Travolta, Robin Williams, and a recorded appearance from Adam Sandler.

We hope Miley was behaving! After all, she's still gotta work the Hannah Montana rounds for the Mouse!

The real star, however, was Johnny Depp, who has proved to be Disney's golden boy in the Pirates of the Carribean franchise.

Well, good news for all you Depp lovers! Johnny is coming back for a fourth Pirates installment.

Wasn't that franchise cooked a while ago, though????

In addition to the eccentric eyeliner-wearing pirate, Depp will also be playing Tonto in a film adpation of The Lone Ranger, another Bruckheimer blockbuster.

And, to top it off, Depp is also starring as the Mad Hatter in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland, a role that's just too perfect for him!

We can't wait for that one!

Walt Disney Studios chairman Dick Cook also announced a major slate of upcoming 3-D animation films, a format the House of Mouse has competitively dedicated itself to. The sequel to Cars is being pushed forward to coincide with a new attraction at the California Adventure theme park in Anaheim. This is in addition to a new film called Bolt and in the more traditional animaton vein, it was announced that Oprah Winfrey will be voicing a character in The Princess and the Frog.

And these are only a few of the 16 live-action and animated features on Disney's plate.

Mickey Mouse doesn't mess around!

Oprah Winfrey has joined the cast of the upcoming Disney animated film The Princess and the Frog.

Super O will play the character of Eudora, the mother of the main character Princess Tiana.

The film, set for release in late 2009, is set in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

This isn't Oprah's first foray into the animated world.

She recently voiced the character of Judge Bumbleton in Bee Movie.

R u looking foward to it???

We don't watch any of those animated films, except for the Pixar ones.
