Oprah to join forces and put her Bid in for the Clippers!!!

Oprah Winfrey is considering teaming up with David Geffen and Larry Ellison to make a bid to buy the Los Angeles Clippers if the NBA's board of governors votes to force Donald Sterling to sell the team, sources told ESPN.
Geffen, a music and film mogul with a net worth that Forbes estimates at $6.2 billion, reportedly tried to buy at least a controlling stake in the Clippers in 2010 but was rebuffed by Sterling.

Oprah Winfrey is part of a group that is considering a bid to buy the Clippers if Donald Sterling is forced to  sell,sources told ESPN.

Ellison, the CEO of Oracle, a business software and technology company, has attempted to purchase several sports teams in recent years.
Geffen's and Ellison's potential interest has been previously reported, but sources told ESPN they are considering joining with Winfrey on the bid for the Clippers, who could draw the interest of some of the world's wealthiest people.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver wants Sterling to sell the Clippers as part of the extremely stiff sanctions brought against the longtime owner in response to racist comments the league determined he made in a recorded conversation.
Silver banned Sterling for life, fined him $2.5 million, and said he will press the other teams to support his desire to make Sterling sell.
"I fully expect to get the support I need from the other NBA owners to remove him," Silver said.
Boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr. and music mogul Sean Combs both claimed interest in buying the team Tuesday, as did real-estate tycoon Rick Caruso.
Magic Johnson, Mark Walter and their Guggenheim Partners group in the billion-dollar purchase of the Los Angeles Dodgers also are possible bidders, though sources have told ESPN that any such discussions were premature at best.
Johnson, who was specifically mentioned in the recorded conversation involving Sterling, laughed off the suggestion in an appearance on ESPN on Sunday night, saying he was focused on bringing the NFL back to Los Angeles.

THE SHADE IS REAL

Kim Kimble is responsible for Lady O's Hair Piece!

Oprah is wigging out!
The Queen of All Media wants to talk hair and she's getting our attention by sporting a massive Afro wig on the September 2013 cover of O, The Oprah Magazine. Weighing in at approximately 3.5 pounds (roughly the same as a small Chihuahua), Oprah named the wig "Wind Thang" and took to social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) to share her excitement about the stunning cover image.
But leave it to her BFF to crack jokes. Gayle King was on set for the shoot and asked: "Can someone put on the soundtrack to The Lion King?". And Adam Glassman, O magazine's creative director, hit the nail on the head when he exclaimed: "Your hair looks like Chaka Khan and Diana Ross combined." Our thoughts exactly.
In a Q&A for the issue, Oprah's longtime hairstylist Andre Walker explained how he obtained the enormous hairpiece, which was delivered to the photo shoot in Bubble Wrap and a custom-made, bright pink travel box complete with a built-in stand.
"It wasn't easy! I finally decided I'd have to make one myself. Two days later I was on the set of "The Voice" talking to the stylist there, Kim Kimble [she's also Beyonce's mane woman]. When I told her about my predicament, she said she had created a wig I could borrow. Saved me a good bit of time!"
Oprah, who looks amazing in a curve-hugging orange dress on the cover, debuted her natural hair on O's September issue last year. But even though she's working with a marvelous mane of curls, the TV titan isn't exempt from wanting what she doesn't have.
"I wish I could say it was all mine." Oprah told Us Weekly. And the 59-year-old star goes on to say: "My own hair is shorter, not quite so spherical, and a lot lighter. But that doesn't mean it never gives me grief. When it comes to hair, I'm in the same boat as most every other woman. The way we feel about our hair is universal --- we love it when it looks great, we can't stand it when it looks not so great, and we all want it to tell the world something about us."
The issue hits newsstands tomorrow Aug 6. What do you think of Oprah's sassy look?
