According to TMZ, perky talk show host Rachel Ray made some derogatory racial remarks against talk show queen Oprah, who happened to give Ray her big shot at daytime TV. It was reportedly a shocking account of a dinner that occurred during the period that the show was being sold.

Back in December 3, 2005. Ray was at a book signing at the Century City mall and then headed to Houston’s for some drinks and dinner along with seven other people. She began drinking a lot of red wine and became "extremely loud and aggressive," and began dissing Oprah.

She then reportedly began talking about a portrait of Oprah that sits in the lobby of Harpo Productions in Chicago. It's from the movie "Beloved" and shows Winfrey's back, enhanced with scars. She's also wearing a skirt from the slavery era.

After about four big glasses of wine, the attack began, "Why is she wearing slave drag? She obviously has problems being black."

After the attack on Oprah she moved on to Angelina and Brad Pitt stating Brad's a "pussy boy." Angelina is a "skanky, backdoor c**t."

The Director of Publicity for Rachael Ray, Charlie Dougiello, told TMZ, "Rachael did attend the dinner referenced and enjoyed wine and good conversation with friends and colleagues. She denies making any of the comments referenced. In fact, there are several words that are attributed to Rachael that she has never uttered in her life."

Dougiello added, "Neither in public nor in private has Rachael made a disparaging or cruel remark about her friend and mentor, Oprah, nor a celebrity couple she has never even met."

Dougiello also said, "There were several associates of Rachael's at that table who, unprompted, agreed that Rachael never made any of the comments she is being accused of making... and it seems very convenient that these accusations are being levied at a time when Rachael's success has focused the public eye on her."
