For some reason, I just can't see Oprah and Stevie together...I think it's something with their personalities...I get the feeling that Stevie doesn't really like to be interviewed about stuff other than her music...although when she was on Rosie O'Donnell, they were joking around about soap operas...but I really can't see Stevie giving enough stuff to Oprah to fill an hour long show.

They could kill time with video greetings from her friends (ie. Sheryl Crow, etc.). They did this with Gwenyth Paltrow, although that still didn't fill up and hour. How 'bout having the whole band on!

Stevie should suck it up and talk already.

I mean I think it could do a lot of good to talk about the bad side of drugs - what they did to her etc....and how she overcame those obstacles etc.....

I think she and Oprah would do well together - Oprah can get along with anyone ;)

I would love to see Stevie on this show. I think she would be a great guest. The two of them will by crying a river!

Yes!!
 
FM should go on Oprah...and she should do one of those favorite things days, where all the audience members (ALL Ledgies, of course, hehe.) get FM stuff!!

OMG - could you imagine, if FM or SN was on Oprah, and Oprah's producers filled the audience with only people from The Ledge??? And then they opened the floor to questions????

oh, no.
He'd get inside and be all "Stevie, for god's sakes, get a stylist! And what were you thinking with Too Far From Texas? And That Made Me Stronger? Biggest piece of crap you've ever done!"
I'm sure there'd be some kind of riot... :laugh:

It would be interesting to see Stevie try to answer questions and discuss her life honestly in a supposedly unscripted context and with a less scyophantic host than say Rosie O'Donnel.Over the years Stevie has always more than couched the truth of what she was going through at the time only to come clean years or decades after the fact.I remember a Bella Donna era article when she claimed she couldn't even remember her own phone number ,which was most likely true .Then incredibly went on to say 'it has nothing to do with drugs or anything like that'!!!!And of course it took her 20+ years to admit that GDW wasn't just about groupies .Don't anyone hold your breath waiting for her tell all auto- biography since she has already said she is going to wait until everyone else that the beans could be spilled on is dead or too old to care anymore ,and this was years after she claimed to be writing one she would call "The Wild Heart' due out in the mid 1980s.No wonder some shrink thought she needed to be on heavy duty psych meds.

Oprah 'empowerment and inspiration are my favourite words' Winfrey and her 'look, Oprah cracked a funny' audience ought to learn that people do not require five minutes of applause for simply announcing that they have a child, recalling a song title, or stating that they eat vegetables. Actually American audiences in general need to learn to stop wasting the air time with freakin applause.


Jen! She returns. Oh and if you're reading this, please don't reply with my name, I'm rather sensetive about that. Sorry.

Not to interrupt, but that was fricking hilarious! Oprah sucks, but i still watch it sometimes late at night. I'm always irritated by Oprah, yet sometimes glean interesting info. I wouldn't really want Stevie et al on Oprah, either, except for the chance to just see them, talking.... :wavey:
I definitely think there's a reason why they've never done it, though, and i respect that. :cool:

I'm with you, Amber. Stevie on Oprah certainly wouldn't be my first choice - but I relish the thought of an hour of talk... Sadly, there isn't a great plethora of strong interviewers who would do this kind of sit-down with Stevie Nicks. In the lesser of all evils, the evils being Larry King, Barbara Walters, Oprah, Rosie O'Donnell, I'd take Oprah. Of course, it'd be amazing if Charlie Rose sat down for an hour with Stevie and Lindsey. One can always hope...
