Oprah confirmed -- in August's edition of "O" Magazine--that she's NOT gay and no, she and best friend Gayle King are not lovers. I guess there've been rumors, but I hadn't realized they'd reached the point where she had to publicly refute them. Sort of astonishing.
"The truth is, if we were gay, we would tell you, because there's nothing wrong with being gay," says King.

Says Winfrey: "Something about this relationship feels otherworldly to me, like it was designed by a power and a hand greater than my own. Whatever this friendship is, it's been a very fun ride."
