Is Oprah ending her show really that big of a deal?

I swear, it was all over the news today. It was ‘breaking news’ on Twitter and top headlines on national news. It’s either a really slow news day or people are treating this like a national tragedy. Or both.

I get it. Oprah has been on TV forever and it’s hard to say goodbye to people you get used to always seeing on TV. But shows end. That’s just what they do. And, yes, I understand all the good that Oprah does because of the fame she gained through her TV show. I’m not denying that.

But, seriously, it’s not ending until 2011. Maybe if it was ending in 2012, it could coincide with the people saying that’s when the world will end. But anyways, you have plenty of time to mourn. And I’m sure Oprah will make sure you all have plenty of time to tell her how amazing she is. Like she would really go quietly (thus all the commotion today).

CJ Jeans and the Oprah Effect

Written on October 22nd, 2009 by Johnno shouts

Anything highlighted on Oprah Winfrey’s show, or on her blog, gets an automatic boost. It’s called the Oprah Effect, and CJ or Cookie Johnson jeans are bound to see a rise in interest, now that she has spotlighted them.

Oprah Winfrey has named CJ Jeans (or Cookie Johnson jeans) as her favorite set of denim pantswear. The reason is because, according to Oprah, they are the best jeans for women with “real booties. In other words, what Oprah is saying, is that CJ Jeans (or Cookie Johnson jeans) provide ample room. The ample room is provided for your behind.

The CJ jeans are relatively new, and designed by Cookie Johnson, which is probably obvious due to their name. She decided to start her own brand of jeans after not finding anything for her figure in stores.

The CJ Jeans by Cookie Johnson are not cheap however. They are priced between $140 and $200. They are, as Cookie . Johnson stated, jeans for the curvier set of women,Curvier does not translate into obese or overweight, however. Rather, the CJ jeans (or Cookie Johnson jeans) are designed for say, Marilyn Monroe, or Scarlett Johansson.
