From her stirring Time’s Up speech at the Golden Globes, which prompted the hashtag #Oprahforpresident to go viral on social media, to signing a multi-year deal with Apple and dominating the Forbes list in its annual list of the world’s billionaires as per usual, Aunty O is killin’ it left, right, and centre.

However, despite the strong clamoring for Oprah to become president, she addresses politics as she sits down with Vogue Britain‘s Editor-in-Chief, Edward Enninful, and gives her unfiltered opinion about politics.

“In that political structure – all the non-truths, the bullshit, the crap, the nastiness, the backhanded backroom stuff that goes on – I feel like I could not exist. I would not be able to do it. It’s not a clean business. It would kill me.”

During the interview, the media mogul also delves into lighter issues such as a near fashion mishap that might have occurred but was abated all thanks to Google – she nearly wore a ‘whitish’ dress to the royal wedding, as she thought it was cream at first. Gasp! But luckily, renowned fashion designer, Stella McCartney was able to remake the dress in pink in record time. Anything is possible when you’re Oprah, right?

She also spoke about the ongoing #MeToo and #TimesUp movements.  “People talk about ‘these are such dark times’, but what if we shift the paradigm? Because I see it differently,” she asserts.

“I see, ‘Isn’t this remarkable that we’re waking up?’ For years, women have endured craziness. This is what’s happening to people. They’re allowing themselves to not just become corroded, but to become hysterical. You’ve got to lean to the happiness.”

Key take-out: Be like Oprah. Make a positive spin on any negative situation. Attitude is key!
