Seal slams Oprah Winfrey
Seal has suggested Oprah Winfrey knew of Harvey Weinstein's alleged sexual
misconduct.
The 'Kiss From A Rose' hitmaker took aim at the TV icon as he targeted her
friendship with the disgraced filmmaker.
Sharing pictures of the pair together, Seal included the caption: "When you
have been part of the problem for decades ... but suddenly they all think you
are the solution."
The singer described Oprah as "sanctimonious" and appeared to accuse her of
knowing about the allegations made against the Hollywood producer.
He wrote: "Oh I forgot, that's right ..... you'd heard the rumours but you had no idea he was actually serially
assaulting young starry-eyed actresses who in turn had no idea what they were
getting into. My bad. #SanctimoniousHollywood (sic)"
Oprah previously addressed the sexual assault scandal on her own Facebook
page, describing Weinstein's behaviour as "hideous".
She said: "I've been processing the accounts of Harvey Weinstein's hideous behaviour and haven't been able to find the words to
articulate the magnitude of the situation."
Oprah made headlines after a speech she gave at the Golden Globe awards
sparked speculation that she would run for president in the 2020 election.
In her powerful speech, Oprah spoke about press freedom, racism, and sexual
abuse before receiving a standing ovation with her closing words about the
future.
She said: "I want all the girls watching here, now, to know that a new day is
on the horizon. And when that new day finally dawns, it will be because of a lot
of magnificent women, many of whom are right here in this room tonight, and some
pretty phenomenal men, fighting hard to make sure that they become the leaders
who take us to the time when nobody ever has to say 'me too' again."
