00:00Friends, friends, friends, Oprah and Gayle are friends, and when we say friends we don't
00:09mean like wink wink, they're actually having sex, friends.
00:16You know for years people used to say we were gay, we were up against that forever.
00:20Oprah and Gayle are not lesbians, so they went on Melinda Gates' podcast.
00:26And they finally squarely addressed it.
00:29If we were gay we would tell you.
00:30She was like, I told Oprah she needed to do a show and address this.
00:34Because it's hard enough for me to get a date on Saturday night with people thinking we're gay.
00:38Isn't this exactly what gay people would say?
00:40Would you stop?
00:42Regardless, Oprah says one reason people jump to gay conclusions is cause...
00:47Maybe people aren't accustomed to seeing women with this kind of truth bond.
00:56Maybe, but isn't there a far simpler way to settle this issue?
01:00Why didn't Stedman step up?
01:02Stedman could have stepped up and ended this, right?
01:04What do you want him to do?
01:05He could just come out and say, she is, Oprah is fine.
01:09I don't know.
01:10What?
01:11Actually, Stedman could put the rumors to rest if he just said the right words.
01:16Oprah be throwing that thing back.
01:18Okay, those were not the right words, but we appreciate your effort.
01:24So, thanks Oprah and Gayle.
01:26Apparently, you're just friends.
01:29If we were gay, we would tell you.
