Thursday night, a brave, nameless man told Oprah she had kale stuck in her teeth. Then Oprah tweeted her appreciation.
Thank u kind gentleman who told me I had kale in my teeth. Was eating kale chips with Quincy Jones. Went straight to @LairdLife party.— Oprah Winfrey (@Oprah) October 23, 2015
There's a lot to unpack here, so let's get started.
1. Celebrities, they're just like us! They get food stuck in their teeth.
2. Oprah is in the camp of "tell-someone-something-is-stuck-in-their-teeth," not the "just-ignore-it-and-hope-they'll-figure-it-out."
3. Was Oprah actually subtweeting at this man, angry that he dared tarnish her pristine reputation with this leafy green tabloid story?
4. Oprah eats kale chips with Quincy Jones. Celebrities, they're nothing like us.
What's his prize? He gets a car! You get a car! We all get a car! Made of floss!
