How Did She
Conquer the Americans African-American talk show queen
Oprah Winfrey is the world’s most powerful celebrity, according to Forbes
magazine. (46) Winfrey, 51, draws 30 million
viewers weekly in the United States. Her talk show reaches 112 countries. She
earned US$225 million over the past 12 months to rank second in celebrity
riches. The annual Forbes list gives most weight to annual
earnings. (47) "After 21 years, her exciting
chat show still rules the airwaves. It created new celebrities and hundreds of
millions of dollars in profits," the magazine said. Winfrey is
most popular with her popular talk show "The Oprah Winfrey Show". She can always
attract the superstars and let them open up to her intimate interviewing
style. Last month, American actor Tom Cruise, 42, surprised fans
when he celebrated his new romance with 26-year-old actress Katie Holmes. He
jumped up and down, shouting "I’m in love." Only a few years ago, Cruise and his
ex-wife Nicole Kidman appeared separately on the same show telling the news of
their divorce. (48) Winfrey’s approach
appears to be simple. She is in pursuit of self-improvement and self-empowerment
(自强). This has proved to be just what people, especially women, want.
Winfrey often talks about her personal secrets on her show. That pulls in
viewers. For example, she revealed that she had been sexually abused as a child,
and has spoken freely of her struggle with her weight. Winfrey
was born to a poor family in Mississippi in 1954. (49) At the
age of 19, she became the youngest person and the first African-American woman
to anchor (主持) a news programme. Her success has not just been
on the screen. Her media group includes a women’s TV network and websites for
women. Winfrey’s work has extended to social change.
(50) She testified before the US Senate to
establish a national database of dangerous child abusers. President Bill Clinton
later signed "Oprah Bill" into law. A. But it also looks at the celebrity’s

for the National Child Protection Act. C. She was not a very successful
woman. D. She began broadcasting while still at high school. E. It placed
Winfrey at the top of its annual ranking of the 100 people last week. F. The
couple had been tight-lipped about their break-up.
