I doubt that it’s important to her and I presume it’s because of the politics. Yeah, she’s had her share of things in 07 but I think she handled them well enough that those likely boosted her image.

A lot of people were critical of Ellen on the dog thing for different reasons. I’m pretty sure that hurt her image.

Wow@that closeup. Can you say pancake makeup, boys and girls?

I'd say the political thing hurt her a bit. The blogs were on fire with a lot of people saying that they lost a lot of respect for her after that. I think she does care about being number two. Powerful people NEVER stop caring. That's how they continue to be powerful…they care about every little thing.

Yeah thats an awful close up. You can really tell she suffers with her thyroid by her skin in this pic.
I dont know Oprah's had so many years as number one and already has a contract to the end of the show. I dont see her caring that much.

She sooooooo got her nose done!

You can also see the shading and highlighting that the MUA did on her nose. Does she have a beard? Her chin and cheek looks like she has that shadow that black women with facial hair get.

Nope. Many plastic surgeons have analyzed it and all agree that it isn't done. They do agree that America, Toni B, Halle, all the Jacksons that you can identify, Beyonce, Patti and Kelly R have all had nose jobs. The jury is out on Rihanna and Eva the Diva.

Amerie, not America

Oprah's way to afraid of pain for surgery. She admits it all the time. She's said if she were brave she'd have the skin under her arms removed.

Amerie, Bey, Halle all have really good nose jobs.

Yes which is why I can't understand why Vivica, Janet, Michael and Lil Kim don't. Maybe they wanted to look like that. I think it was Dr. Youn (formerly on Dr. 90210 where he did a fellowship with Dr. Ellenbogen I think, now practices in Michigan) that termed that "ethnicity obliterating rhinoplasty." That is exactly what it is. It goes for all people of color, some Jewish people and Mediterranean people. A good surgeon will not do a procedure like that even if you begged for it.

Lil Kim has an illness. She is addicted to plastic surgery as well as bad makeup artists. My girl, Cole, did her makeup once and from the untouched up pics it looked wonderful, but Kim instead goes with artists who make her look like a clown.

The Jacksons have the same issues.

Vivica probably had a coupon or something.

"Vivica probably had a coupon or something."

Mmm hmmm

Lil Kim is also an Ambi enthusiast.

People who use Ambi need to remember to also put it on their bodies. A white face with a black neck is a no no.

BTW - Daria your new screen name seems very royal. As if you are Daria from the Land of Gorgeous Black Women. Very Amazonian.

Lil Kim does it EVERYWHERE as Bossip upskirt showed.

Ha. Black She-Ra! Actually, that's my Halloween costume this year. If it's too cold, it'll be Dominique Devereaux of Dynasty

The drama!

You took me back with Dominique Devereaux! I miss nighttime soaps.

Please! Oprah could care less. Oprah signs her own paycheck. Ellen could loose her gig just like Rosie Odonnell lost her gig when she couldn't fake being the Queen of nice any longer..Oprah ain't losing a thing. In fact she is about to have hr own network…. LOL Oh yeah I'm sure she up nights…

Dear,oprah I have a talant of singing I have a nice voice in my school I was in chores for two years.And I want to be on your show.
