Oprah Winfrey addressed her weight battle in the January 2009 edition of her magazine - O, The Oprah Magazine. And I quote Lady O herself, "How did I let this happen again? I'm mad at myself. I’m embarrassed. I can’t believe that after all these years, I’m still talking about my weight." [source: Yahoo News] Oprah has since contributed her weight gain to her out-of-balance thyroid which caused her to go from 160 to 200 pounds.



Taraji P. Henson teamed up with Morris Chestnut in the new film, "Not Easily Broken" (due out January 2009). Based on the best-seller novel by T.D Jakes, the film centered around when the couple's faith gets tested after the wife (Henson) is injured in a car crash and the husband (Chestnut) subsequently finds other women attractive. (Thanks Singersroom Celebs!) Do expect appearances by Kevin Hart, Jenifer Lewis, Eddie Cibrian, and Jakes himself. The trailer is interesting...and so would you go see this film?
