Oprah Shows Off Her First Cell Phone, Complete With Matching Outfit!
How long have you owned a cell phone? We're sure there are some of you out there who still go without, but for most, a celly of some sort has been a constant companion for at least a few years now. Not for Oprah Winfrey, though, the world's richest woman in entertainment. She may have her own YouTube channel, but she's actually never owned a phone until very recently, and took Tuesday night's post-election festivities as an opportunity to show it off to the world.
As seen in the above pic from geeksugar, Oprah was seen carrying a handset in a leather case that perfectly matched her outfit for the evening. Unfortunately, the case obscures just what model of phone it is, but we're guessing some sort of BlackBerry, and that RIM is thrilled to have added Oprah to its long list of celebrity addicts.

Oh..she would.

matching phones w/ cases just became even more uncool than it was to begin with

You are crazy! Oprah did a show years ago about how she and her Oprah show employees are hooked on their blackberrys! Like Oprah wouldn't have a cell phone.... seriously!
FayNov 7th 2008 1:10AM
You would think Oprah had just given birth to the Messiah herself!!!

I can't stand this sanctimonious, self-serving heifer. She and her green phone are puke inducing.
JosephineNov 8th 2008 3:58PM
Leave her be.....she is trying to live her life. BUT, about receiving $35.00 for each Kindle that is sold on Amazon.com, I believe that they should have given all buyers that bought a Kindle through Oprah's website the $35.00 discount..... How much money does Oprah need? BUT, I am sure her viewers that bought the Kindle through Amazon could have used the $35.00 discount a lot more than she. Think of your viewers Oprah. If I would get a $35.00 discount I probably would buy a Kindle.
Hope the info I read about Oprah and the $35.00 is true....if not, SORRY.

I find all this SO very fascinating. Almost as fascinating on where Sarah Palin shops and how much she spends. Or John Edwards haircuts or Eliot Spitzer's choice on the prostitute menu...does anyone happen to know where Lindsay Lohan buys her socks, because that one has kept me up for days now.
RayNov 8th 2008 4:47PM
Who actually cares??
DonnaNov 8th 2008 4:49PM
I don't believe for one minute that this is her first cell phone. I own a small business with 15 employees and I couldn't function without mine. And I am not a billionaire. Sorry but no sell.
JoekNov 8th 2008 5:19PM
Who's this oprah you all are talking about?
MikeNov 8th 2008 5:40PM
Okay, so let's get the terminology correct. She's never "owned" a cell phone or never "had" a cell phone? If she's never had and used a cell phone, then I find that extremely hard to believe. Perhaps she uses a "company" cell phone. Anyway, what's the big deal with the story line?
JanNov 8th 2008 6:12PM
I'm ashamed to say that I know this, but Oprah said on a recent show (a week or so ago) that she had finally gotten her first cell phone! She said she hadn't wanted one before, but felt it was time. I wonder if she has an assistant with her at all times to answer it when it rings?
RockyNov 8th 2008 6:30PM
Is it not time to get rid of her and her idea that she is a star as she is naught but a loud mouth
Lois PatrickNov 8th 2008 6:39PM
WHOSE phone WAS she using when she went across the country with her side-kick Gail??? And when she had her reality show, I watched her texting the contestants all the time. I can't believe she had to borrow it.
First phone. Baloney!
nickNov 8th 2008 7:18PM
please make her go away. please
RobNov 8th 2008 7:58PM
R u crazy? What new and improved @#$% have u been smokin'? As if Bush and his cronies haven't @#$%^& up the country these past 8 years. Either u must b from Venus or u r as stupid as u sound.
cannotbelievethisNov 8th 2008 7:59PM
Nope, I don't buy it. Maybe she has always LEASED a cel phone, but I'm no billionaire and I have a cel phone... to keep track of my kids, if nothing else... perhaps she finally had to buy one, rather than lease it... I thought this would be an INTERESTING story, like Dennis Hopper, or Shelley Winters, or some B&W legend-type. Orprah is no legend, she's still alive... to be a legend, you have to have DONE something... all she's ever done is the news, and pat herself on the back... oh yeah, and you gotta be dead.
