Ophrah's Obama party brings in $3 Million!

There were 1,500 paying/donating guests at $2,300 a ticket so the $3 Million dollar effort doesn't come to a surprise. The Oprah campaign for Obama was a huge success with the legendary Stevie Wonder performing, a high class picnic style menu (mini burgers, corn on the cob, etc.) and tight fisted security. I hear it was bedazzling and lovely. In Ophrah's introduction to Barak Obama she said, "nobody can stand in the way of destiny." The hostess of ceremonies also stated that Obama gives her something to be actively engaged in for the election. I think if Oprah can make the sales of ANY book, company, or product double/triple, etc. from one word of approval from her mouth then Barak Obama will become president. I already thought he had a huge chance but now it's in the bag. 2008's presidential election is going to be very exciting and i predict the most historical and heavily participated election of this sort of all man kind.

Celebrity guests included: Lou Gossett Jr.; Cicely Tyson; Forest Whitaker; Ellen Pompeo; Sidney Poitier; Linda Evans; Tyler Perry; Chris Rock; Hill Harper (attended Harvard Law with Obama); music producer Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds; Holly Robinson Peete and her husband, football quarterback Rodney Peete; Winfrey beau Stedman Graham; radio personality Tom Joyner; sports legends Ernie Banks, Bill Russell and Dave Winfield; tennis great Jimmy Connors, Frank Ski (of Atlanta's radio station V103) and model Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber.

It's good to have Oprah as a political support

This Saturday it's going down at Oprah Winfrey's Montecito, California estate. And ya know what?? You are NOT invited. Well unless you have $2,300 to donate to the campaign that is. The Super Duper, "da da da da da daaaaaaaaaaa" Barack Obama PARTY! The $2,300 ticket entry fee is THE max you can get in primary giving per person. Some celebrities who are not even attending are going to donate to the campaign! If Barack didn't know yet, he knows now, it's good to be a friend of Oprah. Now i gotta figure out some diabolical plan to make us as close as sisters. Who knows maybe I'll learn how to train dogs to bark in Spanish and do the tango and become a guest on her show.

So the Oprah Obama party will be attended by Stevie Wonder and gospel singer BeBe Winans who will perform. A sample of invited guests include, Will Smith, John Travolta, Jamie Foxx and the newly with child (as they said back in the olden days) Halle Berry. That sounds like a lot of O's favorite people. She's only missing Tom Cruise or Alicia Keys or that really cute, single (I have suspicions about that) designer, decorator guy (dang his name is on the tip of my tounge...Nate or something, maybe) she keeps inviting back to her show.

The word is that O and O got to bonding (in a platonic way people!) in 2005 during a flight from Chicago to Houston to visit folks displaced by Hurricane Katrina. Ok, Ok. Neat.

According to Newsweek Magazine, one of Oprah’s closest friends, producer Quincy Jones, will not attend the affair because he is hosting a similar fund raiser for Obama’s Democratic rival Hillary Clinton at the home of Magic Johnson on Sept. 14. Wow! But Mr. Jones, while building up how incredible the party is going to be said, "There is no competition here". I think he meant that in a, "It's all good" way. Dang Q, a shindig for Hil C? He always did love white women. Calm down folk, just kidding. True YES, but kidding.
