President Obama Gives Props To Oprah Winfrey's Acting Chops In The Butler!

President Barack Obama may have a country to run and stuff, but the man also knows how to enjoy, even going to the movies apparently (or maybe the movies come to him).

Recently, Barry took in a showing of The Butler, and was not only entertained and touched by the story of an African-American White House butler and his family in mid-20th century America, but especially liked Oprah Winfrey’s performance as the butler’s wife, saying:

“And Oprah, my girl, she can act. She’s just a wonderful actress.”

There’s an endorsement worth an Oscar‘s weight in gold!

Sounds like Oprah has a fall back plan if this whole billonaire-media-mogul thing doesn’t pan out. LOLz!!!
