Oprah Winfrey planning to thwart Kitty Kelley by releasing her own tell-all book?

[HMG] – For reasons whose merest outlines I have yet to discover, millions of people admire Oprah Winfrey. Kitty Kelley, however, not a big fan. Her new — entirely unauthorized — dissection is due out in April, and Oprah is now playing defense;

The 56-year old host wrote her autobiography some years ago but put it on hold after advice from her family and friends. Now, the doom-laden prospect of Ms. Kelley’s new exposé has persuaded Winfrey to let the book go into print.

And with a net-worth estimated at $2.7-billion, Oprah has many stories to tell; From her close bond with Stedman Graham, to constant, unfounded rumors of a sexual connection with her best friend, Gayle King. And the Enquirer says this book will lay it all out;

“Oprah has long shrugged off the persistent story that she and Gayle are lovers, and that Stedman was just a cover for their own bond,” an insider divulged.

Another burden the host has endured is her weight.  In the book, Oprah will not only admit to her problem but also confess how her long and often thwarted battle with weight has allegedly cost over $5-million.

There’s no date for publication as yet, and the National Enquirer is not known for precision, but if this book ever truly emerges it will make Harry Potter’s sales figures look like a shoe-size.

Personally, I’ll wait for the film…
