Maybe Oprah doesn't "get" Stevie- who isn't as obvious in every way (thankfully!) as Celine Dion whom Opie has had on regularly. I know that Opie has a large white audience, but I think maybe Stevie isn't quite on Oprah's "radar"-- I recall once that Aretha Franklin said "Stevie Who??" when Stevie was selling a huge amount of albums in the '80s, and being in the same industry, you'd think Miss F would have known of her, but seemed not to.
Somehow I doubt that Joan Jett has been on Oprah's show either, though with 'The Runaways' movie it would have been a great booking for Joan. Maybe O just isn't into rock chix.
Poor Joan- the Runaways movie got good reviews but had a non-prestige early year release, and I don't think Joan benefitted as much as she should have from the film. I've been meaning to get the dvd.

I think Oprah is into the easy listening music.Like Celine. not much rock.I brought a freind to a Stevie concert years ago which she is black ,She love Stevie and her music .She loved the concert and she had the most fun then anybody that came with me to a Stevie/FM concert.Yes I hope Stevie will go on Oparh's show.On her DVD appearences last year Stevie's managment Should ofcontacted Oprah's people to go on her show.That would of been great.
