Oprah Breaks Gayle’s Heart …
I’m a day late on my Oprah viewing, so it was just this afternoon that I was able to watch her interview with actress Valerie Bertinelli. Bertinelli is promoting her new book, Losing It: And Gaining My Life Back One Pound at a Time. Usually when Oprah has celebrity interviews I just skip over them because they are kind of boring and Oprah doesn’t dig out too much good gossip. (They can’t all be Tom Cruise jumping on a couch.) But this one promised some dirt about Valerie who we all (well all of us who watched TV in the late 70s/early 80s) knew as the good girl on One Day at a Time and as a good girl (presumably, because I never watched this one) in Touched By An Angel. She married a rockstar (Eddie Van Halen!) Did did cocaine! She dated Steven Spielberg! She gained and lost a lot of weight!
But then Valerie talks about “passionately” kissing another women and asks Oprah if she ever has:
Watch Valerie backpedal that one! Don’t want to bring up all those rumors again! Oprah just might slap 40 more pounds right off Bertinelli’s head! But the really sad thing is thinking of Gayle sitting alone in a hotel room somewhere, watching this show and sobbing quietly once again. Poor Gayle. Oprah won’t let her kiss her on the mouth.
