Oprah looks a lot different without her full TV makeup on.

Sigh, I must be getting old when I'm no longer hip to today's vernacular. However, I will remember this if I ever see nipples showing through my friends clothing. They'll either think I'm hip for knowing the expression or tell me to get a life.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:What does that mean?

Please, this debate really is ridiculous. The sales clerk is lying, typical CYA. Anyone who even considers that Oprah would lie about such a small and, in her life, meaningless shopping trip, is delusional. Wake up folks! People discriminate against others based on their looks and skin color all of the time.
Being judged by your appearance happens to everyone, although people of color get the worst of it by far. in fact, I just told my husband this weekend that I wanted him to deal with a salesman because I often get treated like I am dumb or silly because I have long, pale, blond hair. People stereotype all the time and certainly, stereotyping based on skin color is nothing new. There is absolutely no reason for someone of Oprah's stature to lie about something like this, something that happens all the time!!
"Nipping out" is my new favorite term learned on DCUM![]()
I'm guessing it means having your nipples showing through, as the shop owner does even through a leather jacket.

Yes! I agree with this. First - I'm so sick of Oprah making these "woe is me" statements. She's a complete bitch with katrillions of dollars that demands everyone cater to her. And really, whether the salesgirl suggested another bag or a cheaper bag, why does Oprah have to make it such a big PR issue. In her "down time" she dresses awful. Like a bum. So honestly, it probably wasn't even related to race at all - but more "you look like shit wearing your baggy sweats - let me show you something cheaper" and Oprah - who is trying like hell to be relevant again - starts pulling out the race card. Ridiculous.
