Her interview with MoNique's family, despite knowing their traumatic past. That may me lose alot of respect for Oprah. MoNique was vulnerable and trusted her with something heartbreaking, but Oprah went behind her back and did the interview, anyway. 😠
@@rachelmartin5187 literally ran to the comments to see if anyone would say this
Michael Jackson and the Olsen twins were the first people that came to mind.
Respect for Michael Jackson for refusing to ask that inappropriate question.
Also as a recovered person from an eating disorder asking someone how much they way is the worst question you could ask and only adds to the misconception about eating disorders.
@@Rebelwithacause94 You meant to say weigh
I thought her interview with Nathan Lane and Robin Williams during the time of The Birdcage would had been on the list. For those not aware, Nathan Lane wasn’t out yet and was worried his career would be affected if so. But during the interview, Oprah was asking questions in a way to get Nathan to come out or talk about his sexuality. Robin could see what was happening and he swooped in and saved him and steered the interview in a different direction.
Moments like that are why I love Robin Williams.
Bless Robin Williams for watching his colleague and friend’s back
Yep I read that he was concerned about appearing because she would go there. And that he only went on because Robin promised he would be there for him. And when the mighty O did go there Robin brilliantly saved him
The Meghan Markle interview was more controversial than Tom cruise stepping on the couch!
You're right, and no mention of that at all.
What
@@sureshmukhi2316what 😊
@@tiffprendergast what....what?
I was thinking that too.
the audacity of her to ask Michael Jackson if he was a virgin, so rude.
She dumped Dr. Phil and Dr. Oz on us. Enough said. 😐 When she lit into author James Frey because her ego was bruised was a close second. Asking MJ if he was a virgin was so gross.
Bingo!
Agreed!
@@blugreen123 I used to like watching Dr. Phil but then after a few years, I realized that the show was more scripted than a WWE match.
Wot she did to mj was disgraceful
Facts!
@@jonelrobinson582 wot facts
The best Oprah moments for me... Were when Debra Wilson immaculately mocked her on Mad TV
Portrayed her at the end of Scary Movie 4 mocking her and Tom Cruise interview 😅😅😅
What about her friendship with Harvey Wienstein.
It’s not a “moment”. That is a whole other video.
That part!!!!
😦what?
Why was Tom Cruise jumping on the couch controversial though?
I assume because it was considered weird and immature. I didnt see the big deal. I thought it funny n cool
That's not Oprah's fault that Tom Cruise was acting crazy because he was in love 🤦♀️🙄
All the greatest moments in po-culture history happened on Oprah! There will never be another show like it.
Yes it IS. If her staff did investigate into a guest, even a famous one like Tom Cruise they would have known He followed some troubling beliefs (putting it tactfully). Seems like he was in love because he was crazy. Marriage didn’t last long
👍🏾
She didn’t say Oprah was at fault. She’s just discussing controversial moments on the show.
Prince Harry and Megan Markle interview
How anyone can see that Tom Cruise moment and see anything but a scripted bit is beyond me.
Exactly!!!
She only did the Maui fund because she has a compound there
Did anyone notice how terrified Katy Holmes looked ? And how rough Tom manhandled her ?
6:34 wait…wait…wait a minute. *6.5 miles A DAY?!* EVERYDAY? As in *7 DAYS/WEEK?* So that’s a few miles short of someone running from Washington DC to Baltimore 😳
I live in Washington DC and it’s 38 miles by car lol I know she was not running 6 miles a day, just like she was taking those weight loss pills that messed up her stomach Lord have mercy
Michael Jackson was innocent all the way.
Innocent people don't settle out of court for tens of millions.
While I wasn't a big Michael Jackson fan, I never believed the allegations he faced. I was molested as a child, and he just didn't strike me as a pedophile.
@@JasS-hu6cfHe was advised by his lawyer to do it, also for many that say he bought his way out you can’t buy your way out the legal system as that’s a huge issue that will land you in more hot water and is a crime. Another reason was because he was still performing his dangerous tour and was all the in another country to interfere with legal business, but Michael later did admit that he should’ve done the court case, as it would’ve proved more effectively about the allegations and he would’ve likely won the case. Sorry, for the long sentence, but I just wanted to clear this out the way.
@@JasS-hu6cfAlso his insurance company paid off the family, not MJ. He was very very reluctant to do so anyways because obviously he didn’t do anything, but his team talked him into it. The settlement also stated that there was no wrongdoing on his part whatsoever. The documentary Square One here on TH-cam explains all of this. The man was so innocent it’s not even funny.
Does that mean you can tell who is a pedophile and who is not because you were molested yourself? MJ definitely knew people would believe him because he appeared "innocent"@@Jennifer-jt9cb
She has proven time and time again to be a horrible person all around just like many people in her field. It's horrendous how she has gotten away with it for so long.
She's the greatest pop-culture icon of all time. Great lady!
@@JasS-hu6cf 😂 yeah..she tries to grasp for decades Michael Jackson 's crown..
@@LeLouvre634 MJ was just the king of pop. Oprah was Queen of the World!
@@JasS-hu6cf" the highest you are, the hardest is the fall" ..watch the fall. And no, shes surely not the Queen of the World . She was may be the Queen of private lucrative, commercial USA TV , thats all.🙃
@@LeLouvre634 she was the Queen of America at the peak of America's power. That made her Queen of the World.
Though not considered as controversial as the ones listed here, what about Nathan Lane and Robin Williams promoting The Birdcage? Lane voiced his suspicions of Oprah wanting to out him before he was ready to Williams. When such questions were about to arise, there was good old Robin Williams diverting the topic to a different direction.
Robin, yay! Nathan, yay! Oprah, ugh.
The mo nique thing disgusted me
I haven’t been this excited for a new type of list that isn’t a rehash of old content is good
Every time I watch the Tom Cruise Oprah interview I can’t help think of scary movie 4
I just watched that the other day & that scene always cracks me up.
For me, it's the Family Guy's skit when Stewie talks about his cousin, Stewie Cruise:
"I'M IN LOVE WITH KATIE HOLMES! I'M IN LOVE WITH KATIE HOLMES! I'M NOT GAY!"
The thing I absolutely hate the most when all these multimillion people and companies ask for "donations", is that you know damn well whatever measly amount you could give, they could give tenfold and it wouldnt even put a scratch in their bank, yet they ask regular people to help out. Hell, they spend more money setting up these fundraisers and advertisements that could have just been more money that could have gone to the fund in the first place. Especially with companies, because when companies do donations, especially at the retailers during Christmas time, you give them money to donate to someone else, and that company gets to right off those donations for their own tax purposes. So you think youre helping out some charity, but at the same time, youre giving these guys a massive tax break.
Her interview with Toni Braxton is another one. Oprah took the position that Toni is just a star who can't control her spending during Toni's dispute with LAFace over her contract. It turned out that Toni was right all along; when Babyface took the stand in her trial and admitted that the contract Toni signed was indeed manipulative and a bad one, Oprah stopped promoting the interview. She didn't apologize, though.
oprah trying to force nathan lane to come out when he was not ready, dear robin williams saved him from her
I wonder how Mingey and Gary are doing?
The Chapelle interview??? Hello!
Awesome thanks for the videos 👍🙏♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Holy crap! I never knew she lost those 65 lbs. in just 5 months.
Because people are rich doesn't mean they have to fix everything! They were simply asking us to be kind humans and help, too.
I remember she claimed a sales person turned her down when buying a handbag in Switzerland because she was black.
Ask anyone about their virginity/sexuality and /or weight/size is so wrong! Sickening. Combine that with asking for the public money to take car of a fire when she had hired a private fire company left the worst taste in my mouth.
She's Evil
My views of Oprah changed with her treatment of Mo'Nique.
I don’t think the funding for the wildfire in Malawi should’ve been on this list 😆. There’s been plenty of celebrities that have done this. And it’s not like they demanded everyone to donate. It voluntarily. It was so dumb to get that worked up over.
It's one of those it was made controversial by ridiculous people when it really shouldn't have been. So yes it was controversial, but not because of anything she did
@@kerrysater157 lol yeah the whole thing was so ridiculous. People had nothing better to do than complain about something. Like get a hobby or something jeez 😆
Happy monday night, Kirsten, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well
Greetings to you, Colombia, from California, USA. May you have a wonderful week.
@@mbrow Thanks, buddy
The James Fry one can't be blamed on her bc someone (shes never meant or know personally) lied about their life
When she interviewed Rudine, the severely anorexic young woman, who eventually passed on due to her illness. That interview felt a bit exploitative. And interviewing Diane Downs from prison was just sad because of how delusional Diane was about the situation. The interview was just giving a platform to a monster who wanted to remain famous for longer than need be.
Yeah. And how long did Cruise's marriage to Holmes last? Not as long as Kidman's. About 5 minutes.
Now do a Top 10 Dwayne Johnson Controversial Moments
That would rock! 😄
His feud with Vin Diesel and Tyrese Gibson would definitely be number 1.
Why is not creating the monsters of phill and oz. That should be number 2 or 1.
I forgot to add the car give away and exploiting the woman that got attacked by the chimp and showed her disfigurement (sorry if wrong word) on tv.
Oprah vs Hermes
Leah,that realtionship with Katie Holmes went really didn’t it 😩
S N A K E
What no mention of when she brought a camera crew to the centre where people who lost their homes were housed to make herself look good but it just backfired during the same time as the asking for donations 💩with the rock
#1 should’ve been the school in Africa, which litigation is still ongoing
0:37 can you imagine donating millions and having people criticize you? Wow😮
She’s a literal billionaire.. multiple billions.
10 million (really only 5 mil because Rock donated the other 5mil) is peanuts.
If she -actually- cared she could have donated the money entirely herself and still have billions left.
No, this was just a vanity project so she could feel good about herself.
I agree with your comment in theory, but I'm with @Isaacindelicato123. Consider the math: Oprah's net worth is about $3B .... $3,000,000,000. If she made a very basic 5% interest on that, her money would make $150M (million) in one year. In reality, her money makes a ton more than that. So, $5M is a pittance to her. She can give, or not give, whatever she wants, but it's understandable why some people were put off by the figure.
Another fact: When Oprah "gave away" all those cars to the teachers in the early 2000s (if I recall correctly), the cars weren't free AT ALL. The recipients all were stuck with paying various fees and taxes. Gift taxes can be expensive and are based on the value of the gift. Many people struggled to come up with the money to pay the bill that they now were liable for, which was in the thousands of dollars. I heard then that the show producers (?) told people that if they couldn't pay the money, to sell the car to raise the funds to pay it.
Amazing
I think the fact that no one got a car should be number 1.
When she interviewed Harry and Meghan.
10:26 The Popes constantly talkedagainst wars and regardless of this, wars always took place
HUH AM I EALRY-
what about oprah and tmnt interview!!!!!
Megan and Harry were right though
Please do top 10 worst my little pony friendship is magic episodes
Y ella se sintió ofendida cuando Joan Rivers le dijo algo sobre su peso. Definitivamente es una hipócrita.
Love Lady O!
I’ve got mad respect for Oprah ❤❤❤❤😊😊
OK bot

@@carameldiva5131because they are a stupid bot
