- Oprah on White House bid: Not interested
(RNN) – Put away your Oprah 2020 T-shirts, mugs, bumper stickers and buttons.
The queen of media says she not cut out for political life.
“I’ve always felt very secure and confident with myself in knowing what I could do and what I could not,” Orpah Winfrey said in an interview published on the InStyle website. “And so it’s not something that interests me. I don’t have the DNA for it.”
Speculation swirled about a possible White House bid after Winfrey’s rousing speech at the Golden Globes this month. She received the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement.
She sparked applause and a standing ovation with topics ranging from the #metoo movement to racial justice.

“I met with someone the other day who said that they would help me with a campaign,” she told InStyle. “That’s not for me.”
The queen has spoken.
