Oprah's KFC Catastrophe


Oprah Winfrey's decision to put her name on KFC's online coupon promotion turned quickly into a "PR nightmare," as described by QSRweb, which covers the quick-service restaurant industry.

The nightmare isn't, as you might think, due to Oprah's hypocrisy in lending her name to one of the worst chicken-abusers in the food business, but rather to the overwhelming response of consumers demanding their promised free food. Gawker spread a rumor that there were "riots" breaking out on Wednesday at a Midtown Manhattan KFC outlet.

Oprah Winfrey’s private South African school has been rocked by its second sex scandal in 18 months



Seven pupils have been suspended from the all-girls school after being accused of touching girls’ private parts and having sexual relationships with other students.

Miss Winfrey, 55, has invested around £30 million establishing the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls, which opened in January 2007.

The chat show host claimed the school, based in Henley-on-Klip, 30 miles south of Johannesburg, would be a ‘model school for the rest of the world’ and was praised by Nelson Mandela for her work.

But just nine months after its high-profile opening, the academy found itself at the centre of a child abuse scandal...

The Black Billionaires



According to the 2008 Forbes International Billionaire List, Aliko Dangote, with a net worth of $3.3 billion is the richest black person in the world, overtaking Oprah Winfrey who was listed as the only black billionaire for three straight years. Oprah is the second richest with $2.7 billion.

South African gold magnate, Patrice Motsepe, was also listed with a net worth of $2.4 billion. Aliko and Motseps are the first black Africans to ever appear on the Forbes international rich list, however, Mobutu, the Congolese president, and Sani Abacha, the Nigerian military leader, were probably billionaires when they were alive but Forbes could never confirm this (according to Forbes magazine's Kerry Dolan).


From 2001-2003, Forbes listed Black Entertainment Television founder Bob Johnson as a billionaire, but dropped him after his fortune was split in his divorce from his wife Sheila.

He returned to Forbes international rich list in 2007 with a net worth of $1.1 billion USD. In 2008 Johnson's wealth dropped further to approximately $1.0 billion USD even.

Afro-multiracial billionaires have also been identified. Forbes international richest list includes Michael Lee-Chin of Canada, who is of Chinese and Jamaican ancestry. Saudi-Arabian billionaire Mohammed Al Amoudi has black ancestry because his mother is from Ethiopia, but rich lists classify him as Arab. Also included is Mo Ibrahim, a British billionaire of Sudanese Nubian ancestry.
