Tyson and Holyfield to Reunite in Oprah’s Ring
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show, Gossip, Video,
Oprah Winfrey really knows how to milk her ratings cows. Recently, we’ve seen her interviews with Whitney Houston and Mackenzie Phillips stretch out over two separate hours. Now, Mike Tyson is getting his Round 2.
This Friday, the former heavyweight champion will be sharing the stage with a very special guest: Evander Holyfield. Yes, that would be the same boxer Tyson bit - twice - during their June 1997 fight.

Mackenzie Phillips to Appear on Oprah Again
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Daytime, Talk Shows, ABC, Oprah Winfrey Show, Announcements, Gossip, News, Rumors,
The marketing plan continues, as Mackenzie Phillips is scheduled to appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show yet again—this time, she’ll be joined with half-sister Chynna Phillips.
Mackenzie is scheduled to appear via satellite, while Chynna will come into the studio to join Oprah. The news comes after Chynna has publicly stated that she believes Mackenzie’s shocking claims about her incestuous relationship with her father: “A part of me died when I found out.”
Can we count on Mackenzie’s former stepmother, Michelle Phillips, to appear on the show as well?

Mad Men Featured on ‘60s-Themed Oprah
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Daytime, Drama, Talk Shows, Cable, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show,
Could Oprah Winfrey do for Mad Men what she does for books?
This coming Monday, the talk show hostess and her upswept hair will dedicate the entire broadcast to a particular decade. The show, entitled “Oprah Goes Back in Time: The 60s,” will include appearances from both January Jones and Jon Hamm.
The hour will also feature items that would have been Winfrey’s favorite during that time. (I’m guessing the audience won’t want any of those freebies.)
Maybe Oprah could have Dr. Phil talk to Don Draper about his daddy issues and extramarital affairs?

Oprah Dives into Chris Brown/Rihanna Mess
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, Reality, Talk Shows, CBS, Oprah Winfrey Show, Gossip, Video,
Daytime icon Oprah Winfrey recently jumped into the fray and media frenzy surrounding Chris Brown and Rihanna on her talk show, speaking out against domestic violence and speaking personally to the singing star.
“Love doesn’t hurt,” Winfrey said more than once, contradicting several famous rock songs and more than one long-revered poet. “If a man hits you once, he will hit you again!” She stated passionately.

Octuplets’ Grandfather Sits Down with Oprah
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Talk Shows, Syndication, Oprah Winfrey Show,
We’ve heard from both Nadya Suleman and Angela Suleman. Now it’s time for the octuplets’ grandfather to speak.
In an interview to air next Tuesday, Ed Suleman admits to Oprah that he - like many others - has doubts about his daughter’s sanity. “Now I’m no psychiatrist, but I question her mental situation,” Suleman stated. And though he considers Nadya’s actions to be “absolutely irresponsible,” the 67-year-old is seeking ways to raise funds for all 14 children. Suleman currently lives in the same home as his ex-wife, Angela, and contributes to the family by working as a contractor in Iraq.

30 Rock Seeking Two Gossip Girls
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Prime Time, NBC, Gossip,
I believe 30 Rock is now just one guest star away from actually being Saturday Night Live.
In the past week, the series about a fictional sketch comedy show has had a list of names attached to it. First there was the news about Jennifer Aniston’s appearance, then there was buzz about an actual Oprah cameo. Now there’s gossip about Gossip.
It’s being reported that the writer/star of Mean Girls could be tapping into her own mean girl persona. And who better to help Tina Fey with this sweeps stunt than Gossip Girl‘s own Leighton Meester and Blake Lively?
