Oprah's Secret Sister
Oprah Winfrey revealed yesterday that she had found her long lost half sister. Oprah is now looking forward to eating the other half she didn't finish 50 years ago.


After Oprah Winfrey revealed that she had found her half sister, she stunned audience members with the revelation that she had hidden all of their long lost half sisters under their seats! "You get a half sister! You get a half sister. You get a half sister, YEAH!!!"


Unfortunately, most of the newly found half sisters did not come tax free.
