Oprah's weight drama

I am so bothered by all this recent weight scrutiny in the media over Jessica Simpson- but I kind of come to expect it since you're either too thin, fat, or pregnant according to Us Weekly. Oprah however, is another story. OMG I don't care about what you look like or how much you weigh and you sure as hell don't need to draw attention to your weight gain by issuing a public apology or whatever she's been trying to do. I look forward to the day where we don't have to focus on a woman's weight as a measurement for personal success... but until then, according to New York Mag, Oprah's open struggle with her weight was a good thing for her public image and her magazine sales- says New York, "O's January issue featured a before and after image of Oprah on the cover, asking "How did I let this happen again?" The queen's extra 40 pounds boosted sales to over 1.1 million single copies, the best-selling issue of the mag in three years. Take that, weight gain!"

Argh!!
