      Not at all, what’s sad is our own people tearing each other down, what’s sad is the entire cast of the Color Purple having nothing but good things to say about Oprah but yet people still creating false narratives and rumors on CZcams for likes and views. What’s sad is I know it has to be hurtful to see something that you are so passionate about then for people to try to turn around and tarnish it. What’s sad is even Taraji herself has nothing but goods things to say about Oprah but yet again here we are.
