Lady Gaga: Oprah's Next Chapter Interview - In Case You Missed It

Lady Gaga's "Oprah's Next Chapter" interview with her mother Cynthia Germanotta aired last night. If you were like me and you didn't watch the exclusive, we have the most interesting facts from the interview. Oprah and Lady O's interview was two hours long and one Little Monster said "it was great."

... The interview took place in Gaga's childhood home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan where her parents still live. Lady Gaga said that she sleeps upstairs "whenever I come to New York" because she doesn't have her own home.

Stefani Germanotta's parents have a very sweet little way of balancing out in their household! Gaga's Grammys are at her parents' house, but "For every award of Gaga’s that goes up, they also put up something from her sister."

Gaga wrote "The Edge of Glory" in "10 minutes" and her impromptu writing session happened while she was taking shots of tequila with her dad. Gaga and Papa Gaga were sitting at a family piano in a NY apartment when her grandfather was about to pas away. “I started playing, and I said to my dad, ‘Don't be sad… look at how much he won in life. He's on the edge of a glorious moment.’ By the time we got through it, my dad was crying, I was crying and the bottle was half empty.”

Cynthia Germanotta: Lady Gaga's Mom Thought She Was "A Screw Loose"

Cynthia Germanotta has finally emerged from the rock that she was hiding under! We first saw a photo of Cynthia when she attended the launch of Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation and she also sat down with Lady O for this Sunday's episode of "Oprah's Next Chapter."

It's hilarious to see how uncomfortable Lady Gaga gets when her mom starts speaking. It's also weird to watch Cynthia refer to her daughter as "Gaga," WTF!!!!!!! Anyway, Cynthia is mad boring when she speaks. Thank gawd Oprah found her humorous!

Bobbi Kristina Tells Oprah Whitney Still Speaks to Her

Bobbi Kristina's interview with Oprah is below. They both spoke to each other while standing up, which is weird. Anyway, Bobbi seems like she's doing really well, like, unusually well. I think Oprah caught her on a very good day. She can't be this upbeat about her best friend's passing. Whitney and Bobbi were inseparable, literally. When Oprah asks Bobbi what she did with Whitney the night before she passed, Bobbi says: “I slept in her arms all day, all night long." So yeah, Bobbi and Whitney Houston were close. This must be rough for the 18 year-old, but I also feel like Whitney gave her enough love to last a lifetime. It's heartwarming to see that Bobbi is doing such a good job at moving forward. She wants to pursue a career in entertainment so that her mother's legacy can live on.

Bobbi Kristina and Houston Family: "Oprah's Next Chapter" Preview

When it comes to Oprah's network, she seriously does everything wrong. Not only is it too soon for Bobbi Kristina to be speaking out about her mother's untimely passing, but the OWN network promoted this huge exclusive for exactly one week! Big interviews like this should be promoted for two weeks at minimum. Then, Oprah should have dedicated an hour to Bobbi Kristina Brown and an hour to the Houtons. It's okay though, y'all. I may just look into getting the OWN network to hire my a*s. I'm wasting too many ideas. I'm so modest.

Enough with my narcissism. Bobbi Kristina is shown for all of .02 seconds in this preview. The rest of it is dedicated to Whitney's sister-in-law Patricia Houston and Whitney's older brother Gary Houston. Oprah's Next Chapter airs on Sunday at 9 p.m.

Bobbi Kristina Brown: Oprah's Next Chapter Interview Airs Next Week

Whitney Houston’s daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, has been in the news almost as much as her mother recently, but she hasn’t spoken publicly yet. Bobbi Kristina will give her first interview on March 11th to Oprah, as part of the OWN network’s Oprah’s Next Chapter.

In addition to interviews with Whitney’s sister-in-law and manager Patricia Houston and her brother Gary Houston, the special will also let the late singer’s daughter “[share] personal memories of her mom and how she would like the iconic superstar to be remembered.”

Hopefully, this won’t be too stressful for the teenager, who had a nervous breakdown after her mother’s death and had to be hospitalized. It’s sure to be an emotional one-hour special, but that’s the name of Oprah and the name of the situation at hand.

Oprah Attends Lady Gaga's Born This Way Foundation Launch

Oprah is stepping out of her comfort zone. The iconic former talk show host used to attend, like, nothing. Then she launched a poorly thought out vanity project known as The Oprah Winfrey Network. She needs some publicity, so she filmed hilarious skits with Jimmy Kimmel and attended Gaga's Born This Way Foundation launch!

This could mean one of two things: Oprah is either really fighting to keep her struggling network that no one watches alive (by showing her face more often in public), OR she attended Gaga's launch because she's interviewing Lady Gaga for her network; Oprah's still interviewing folks in some new show that started a few months ago. I think Lady O wants Little Monsters to watch Gaga's episode, a guaranteed ratings spike from the Little Monsters, which is why she may be interviewing The Gaga again.

Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel Spoof OWN Network Shows

Oprah appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live yesterday where she and Jimmy worked together in a hilarious new skit! You do not want to miss this video, it's pretty hilarious! "I GET A CAR!" and "Dr. Vajayjay," sweet geezus! I sit through no videos online, seriously, but I sat through this one and I enjoyed it. So please check it out in its entirety so that you can LOL too while I try to get some Oscar award photos for you. Award shows are a blogger's nightmare. We don't like to work! Check this out y'all.

OWN: Oprah Begs Fans to Watch Her Network, Then Deletes Tweet

SIGH. I honestly feel like I could salvage OWN, and I know someone who works there. I don't care about how cocky that sounds. In case you haven't noticed, modesty is not my strong suit. Oprah is out of touch and she has created a holier-than-thou, preachy network with a roster of stars who were popular 20 years ago!

Oprah crying picture

Out of frustration, and desperation, Oprah begged her followers on Twitter to watch her destined-to-be-canceled network. On Sunday, Lady O Tweeted:

  • “Every 1 who can please turn to OWN especially if u have a Nielsen box.”
  • “The word ‘please’ is used as courtesy not a beg … ‘desperate’ not ever a part of my vocab … ‘unethical’ a little harsh don’t u think? Seemed like it made sense to me. Sorry if u’re offended.”

Oprah's followers told her she was "desperate" and "begging for viewers, which she was, but the bigger issue was with Nielsen.

Nielsen boxes are in 25,000 homes across the country and they're used to track ratings. Encouraging people who have a box to tune in is like me asking you all to click on my ads every single day, whenever you're bored, which is cheating. Cough.

A day later, Oprah Tweeted: “I removed the tweet at the request of Nielsen. I intended no harm and apologize for the reference.” SAD!

Beyonce: Oprah Will Be Blue Ivy's Godmother?

Little Blue Ivy Carter already has a lot going for her, but it seems her mega-famous mom and dad plan to stack the deck in her favor even more by adding one more multi-millionaire icon to her life.

Radar Online reports that Beyonce and Jay-Z have decided who they'd like to serve as the "spiritual guardian" for their daughter and it's not Solange or Kelly Rowland, as many had guessed. Instead, it's the Queen of all Media - Oprah Winfrey. According to the report, it won't become official until a ceremony this Christmas, but Oprah has already accepted the role.

And no, Stedman won't be joining her as the baby's godfather. That title will go to Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith, a longtime friend of Jay's. God, I hope these rumors are true, if only for the possibility of Oprah participating in a ceremony with a dude named Ty Ty.

Jerry Sandusky Wants Oprah or Barbara Walters for Interview

Well this is a douchebag with some nerve, a lot of it, so this story should come as no surprise to anyone. Jerry Sandusky wants some of the biggest names in journalism to sit down with his creepy self for an exclusive interview!

Jerry Sandusky image

Jerry and his butch wife Dottie Sandusky are hoping to get Oprah are Babs for a television interview. Nevermind that Jerry gives some of the most incriminating responses and awkward pauses in interviews, we have an attention loving idiot, and his equally stupid lawyer, on our hands!

Sandusky's attorney, Joe Amendola, said that Jerry and his enabling wife are "considering speaking together publicly after the new year ... either to Oprah Winfrey, '60 Minutes,' 'Rock Center' or Barbara Walters."

It is unknown if anyone has made Sandusky any offers or if his lawyer is just hopeful.

As much as I love Lady O and Barbara Walters, I only wanna see Nancy Grace interview this a*shole! Bring it.
