The popularity of Oprah Winfrey, from the Oprah Winfrey Show to the Oprah magazine has led her to be admired by millions of people worldwide. So it is only natural her many fans would write Oprah for everything from love and relationship advice to simply tell her she is a role model to them. Oprah is a true rags to riches story and although I do not watch the Oprah Winfrey Show or read her books or magazine, I do admire her for her many accomplishments and the many charity's she donates time and money to. The people of America need more role models such as Oprah instead of the many idiots so many people elevate to star status. Being promoted by the Oprah book club is a must for many writers trying to break into the very competitive publishing industry and an endorsement from Oprah and her book club career has launched many young writers to fame and success. I especially feel she has done a very good thing with her school for young women in Africa. We need more people of fame to contribute and give back as Oprah Winfrey has.
