Oprah on Instagram |
Howard Stern called out Oprah Winfrey for showing off her lavish lifestyle on social media.
The Daily Mail US reports the radio host, 68, spoke about how the media mogul, 68, 'loves showing off' her wealth and is 'not embarrassed by' it during The Howard Stern Show on Monday.
'It's f****** mind-blowing when you follow her on Instagram,' he told his co-host Robin Quivers, 70, before adding, 'You gotta be a little self-aware and know that there are people struggling out there.'
'Oprah's not embarrassed by her wealth at all,' he said. Stern also stated that when you follow the famed talk show host on Instagram you 'see her estates, her gardens, the people who service her.''Service her? She's not a car,' Robin admonished him.
'Well, she kind of is. She's got servants and like people cooking and it's f****** wild.'
Stern continued his critique, adding that Oprah 'knows' how to be rich and 'likes' to show it off.
'Which is something I'm not comfortable with,' he added. 'I don't think that people should show off their wealth.'
Robin rebutted his statement, 'Oprah’s just showing you her life. She’s not showing off.'
However, the self-branded King of All Media didn't see it that way, and said her posts lacked self-awareness.
'You gotta be a little self-aware and know that there are people struggling out there, Robin. You got to. You gotta kind of think about people who don’t have — to eat. You know what I’m saying? I mean, come on. You gotta be a little bit aware of this.'
Robin once again challenged his statement: 'Well, if you don’t show your wealth, are they getting fed?'
