A novel published last April, made accusations about Oprah having been a teenage prostitute, questions about her sexuality and quoted family members who said that she exaggerated her upbringing to make the family seem like that they were poorer than they really were. Now, Oprah's half-sister Patricia has confirmed the information.

12 years ago, she was named by Times as the most influential figure in 20th century. However, having been a teenager prostitute, she even gave birth to a baby when she was 14 (the baby was died of premature delivery). The news caused a great deal of controversy and plunge her public persona into meltdown.

News of this kind is not new to the publics; however, few are told or even be confirmed by the family members. That may because Patricia is Oprah's half-sister. How can she abandon their sisterhood? or jsut because western people do regard this lightly?

The novel publisher and the author are totally jerks. To attraction people's attention, they have to bring some "highlights" to promote the novel.

Then they have dug out Oprah's history and let it known to all. Everyone has his/her privacy. Please do respect them. Otherwise, you will be punished one day.

that is right "Money is the root of all evil". for these public celebs, to cover their past is part of their life, lay every iron in the fire. But I can't understand why her sister came out to get it affirmed.It will kill me if I got betrayed by blood relations.

In China, reunion dinner helps to deepen family ties while the exchange of gifts and greetings enhances relations between friends. Visiting relatives are common among holidays and most of Chinese festivals. Maybe some of westerners do not concern too much about relatives.

You can choose your friends but you can't choose your relatives.
