The Queen of All Media wants to talk hair and she’s getting our attention by sporting a massive Afro wig on the September 2013 cover of O, The Oprah Magazine. Weighing in at approximately 3.5 pounds (roughly the same as a small Chihuahua), Oprah named the wig “Wind Thang” and took to social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) to share her excitement about the stunning cover image.
But leave it to her BFF to crack jokes. Gayle King was on set for the shoot and asked: “Can someone put on the soundtrack to The Lion King?”. And Adam Glassman, O magazine’s creative director, hit the nail on the head when he exclaimed: “Your hair looks like Chaka Khan and Diana Ross combined.” Our thoughts exactly.
