Oprah to Grads: Get a Private Jet

Oprah is rich and she's not sorry about it!

The Queen of the media gave the commencement address to graduates of Duke University yesterday, and her message was plain and simple: it's great being rich!

"It's great to have a nice home. It's great to have nice homes! It's great to have a nice home that just escaped the fire in Santa Barbara," she told the students, according to Gawker.

"It's great to have a private jet. Anyone that tells you that having your own private jet isn't great is lying to you."

It must be nice being Oprah period! We're wondering if she realizes most of these students will never see the interior of a private jet, much less be able to spend $42 million dollars on one, like she did back in 2007. Ah, to be rich and famous...must be nice O!

I can't stand that self-centered Biotch! Years ago, she seemed to be a nice lady, but her fame & fortune has gone to her head. She's a big know-it-all about everything & yet, knows nothing! She tries to over talk her guests like she knows more then they do, when they are the authority on the subject. She's, so, full of herself, it's sickening. Whatever happened to being humble.....she, sure, has forgotten!

We hate Octomom because she is as famous as Oprah, don't we? Besides, Ms. Suleman is the only bad MUM for us. People out of University are perfect since they we born. They do not need our advices.

I would like to see the entire speech. I am sure she meant that the grads should work hard for their money, and there's nothing wrong with being rich if you work and EARN it, not SCAM it. However, I hope she said something about being environment conscious, which a private jet is NOT !

I can't stand that fat ass. I don't understand what people love about her. The only good she does is for herself.

I agree with nolaRITA, what she actually said was probably all mixed up. Oprah has a great heart and is very worried about the youth of today. She is NOT a self obsorbed IDIOT like some MORONS seem to think. She has done so much for young people.

I would like to see the whole of what she said. It was probably more like, follow your dreams and work hard and you can be like me. RICH!

She's a self absorbed IDIOT. Out of touch with reality.
