Oprah Provides Rousing Speech At Golden Globe Award Show

January 8, 2018. 2 Comments

At the Golden Globe Awards last night, Oprah Winfrey stole the show, providing a rousing speech as recipient of the Cecil B DeMille award, a recognition that honors outstanding contributions to entertainment.

Prior recipients include Lucille Ball, Morgan Freeman and Walt Disney. Last year, Meryl Streep won the award. Winfrey is the first black women to receive the award since it was first instituted and provided to DeMille in 1952.

Wearing Atelier Versace, Winfrey referenced Recy Taylor, who in 1944 in Alabama was raped by six white men while on her way home from church. She was left blindfolded on the side of the road. The six men were brought to trial twice but two different grand juries chose not to indict the men.

Taylor passed away at age 97 on December 28, 2017 in Alabama. Before she passed, the Alabama House of Representatives in 2011 apologized to Taylor on behalf of the state of Alabama “for its failure to prosecute her attackers.”

Winfrey finished by stating, “I want all the girls watching here now to know that a new day is on the horizon and when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say ‘me too’ again.”

Check out the speech below, along with a cute moment between Winfrey and her bestie, Gayle Kimg, below.

The GOAT Serena Williams says farewell to her care The GOAT Serena Williams says farewell to her career as a professional tennis player in the September issue of American Vogue.

In the cover story, which is a must read, Williams shares some thoughts on her evolution away from tennis and says,"Believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis and a family. I don’t think it’s fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn’t be writing this because I’d be out there playing and winning while my wife was doing the physical labor of expanding our family. Maybe I’d be more of a Tom Brady if I had that opportunity. Don’t get me wrong: I love being a woman, and I loved every second of being pregnant with Olympia. I was one of those annoying women who adored being pregnant and was working until the day I had to report to the hospital—although things got super complicated on the other side. And I almost did do the impossible: A lot of people don’t realize that I was two months pregnant when I won the Australian Open in 2017."

The cover editorial was styled by Gabriella Karefa-Johnson, who in 2020 became the first black woman to style a U.S. Vogue cover.

This cover was also one of the last projects hairstylist #LatishaChong worked on before  she sadly passed away in July this year.

Make-up by Raisa Flowers, nails by Dawn Sterling, and photography by Luis Alberto Rodriguez.
