Oprah Winfrey breaks silence on being paid $1million to help Kamala Harris by hosting a star-studded town hall event for the Vice President in September.
HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY OPRAH WINFREY?
While walking to her car after a workout in quaint Santa Barbara, Oprah was approached by a reporter for TMZ who quizzed her on some hot topics.
When she was asked about the alleged payment she replied ‘Not true, I was paid nothing. Ever.’
The talk show legend initially made it clear she didn’t want to discuss President-elect Trump’s landslide victory: ‘I’m not talking about the election,’ she demurred.
WILL PRINCE HARRY LOSE HIS VISA?
As she climbed into her SUV, the reporter asked if she ‘thinks Prince Harry is going to lose his visa’ when Trump is president. She simply closed the door.
On Sunday, the Washington Examiner reported how Winfrey’s Harpo Productions had received $1million from the Harris campaign on October 15 after Winfrey hosted the event.
In total, the Harris campaign spent $1.2billion on the race while Trump’s campaign spent $750 million, a Financial Times analysis found, although some believe Harris’s spending could be even higher.
Harris also reportedly spent six figures to build out the set for her October appearance on the hit podcast ‘Call Her Daddy’, where she sat down with the show’s host Alex Cooper.
