From BlackVoices

On the heels of receiving negative press a week ago, talk show titan Oprah Winfrey won’t allow her friend, gospel singer BeBe Winans to host her Karaoke Challenge on her daytime talk show.
Winfrey was accused of having “double standards” last week after TMZ reported how the media mogul publicly rebuked R&B star Chris Brown for his domestic dispute with singer Rihanna, but had longtime friend Winans on her show to promote his new CD with sister CeCe Winans.
BeBe & CeCe appeared on ‘Oprah’ on Friday, Oct. 23 and performed a new song called ‘Grace.’ After the performance, Winfrey announced: “You’ll be seeing more of BeBe in my Karaoke Challenge later this season.”
Winfrey rep Don Halcombe has now announced that Winans is off the karaoke segment and that the singer will not appear on her talk show until his domestic violence charges are resolved.

    That was lame.

    So wait…unapologetic w***es are ok, but a singer allegedly pushing his ex-wife down during an argument 8 months ago is frowned upon?? Why’d it take so long for the announcement to come out…why didn’t they just not offer to have him on in the first place?? This stinks to high heaven…but Oprah’s actions never surprise me. She’s never been the biggest fan of Black men, which becomes clear as crystal when any Black man not named Barack or Kanye are on her show, Common & Ludacris for example, but sorry excuses for Black women…like Superhead…are shamelessly promoted. Why?

    I agree with you totally @Red_Clay….I always wondered why Oprah and Tyler Perry were such good friends! Neither one of them like black men…

    I understand Oprah’s stance, he’s innocent until proven guilty but at the same time, her fanbase are mostly women, some victims of domestic abuse and it doesn’t send the right message to her audience. Until, he’s exonerated of all charges, I think it’s the right thing to do to just tell him to speed on. Oprah keep doing your thang, this is not a black male bashing incident, but these lil whiners will always see it that way no matter what. And the mammies on here will continue to enable them to always play the victim. Get over yourselves, if you want BB to judge on your panel, get your own reputable show. I’m sure BB has no hard feelings and understands where Oprah’s coming from, it’s just these losers on BP.

    Its a true shame when you cant even voice your opinion without someone of LESSER education/articulation and quality intellectually, coming along to snipe and name call because they have nothing else better to say…only little minds spew little words…Red_Clay,Vinyl…keep putting it out there like you do!

    Oprah, I am sick of you and your “I think I am the Queen and know what is best for everybody” attitude. I hope you do take your show off the major network and move it to your network. She was suppose to help Steve Harvey with his talk show and she reneged on him because of some old shyt he had done. All of these people are human. You meaning Oprah and the rest of the entertainment industry put this so high on a pedstal and think they can do no wrong. They when something happens that she does not like it’s off with their heads. Oprah is the one of the biggest hypocrypts in the industry.
    @pretty4afatgril, this is even more reason to have him on the show. But it is what it is and it is her show.
    @Da_J_Rok boy you so crazy…..LOL….I need to go check you page out.

    Unfortunately, HYPOCRISY is one of the national pastimes here in America. There are a lot of people who like to sit on their ample asses and shake their heads at the OTHER guys screw-ups, while themselves doing something equally or even more disgusting. Like for instance, the people talking smack in the comments section of this post. I’m pretty sure that all of them have, at one time or another, given preferential treatment to SOMEONE because of personal feelings that they had about the person. It’s HUMAN to want to treat your loved ones better than you treat other people, but to read the comments, I guess none of these people have ever done it. They’ve been one-hundred percent fair to everyone their whole lives. There’s nothing worse than a damn bunch of hypocrites going on and on about HYPOCRISY. And before you ask, YES, I’ve done it. I confess to giving more ice cream to my nephew than my niece, because she never shares her stuff with anybody and he always does. It pisses me off, so I give him a little bit more ice cream sometimes. Okay, SHOOT ME, I’m UNFAIR! BURN ME AT THE STAKE… or shut up and get a life, PLEASE.

    JUST SIT BACK AN SEE WHAT COLOR THE WALLS WILL BE. THOSE ON TOP SHALL FALL DOWN. IT’S CLEAR ON WHAT OPRAH DISHES OUT, JUDGE HER BY HER FRUIT BASKET, ALL OTHER JUDGMENT WILL COME FROM THE ABOVE CREATOR WHO HAS THE FINAL SAY. MAYBE AT ONE POINT WE CAN SEE THOSE BEING JUDGED. I WONDER IF THERE WILL BE A COURT ROOM SESSION IN HEAVEN? I’VE GOT TO SEE SOME STUFF!

    U guys have it all mixed up talkin bout Oprah, the focus should b on DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, and its not who’s doin it but what it does to females, males, children, and families, to either b in domestic violence or to have seen it goin on in the home, either way is not a good thing it destroys people lives, and the normality of their life, they suffer….
