We asked RedEye’s Twitter followers what they thought about all the hubbub surrounding Oprah Winfrey’s downtown taping next week. Here’s what they said. Follow us attwitter.com/redeyechicago.
@r_holland I don’t mind at all so long as we each get a new car!
@MarieBrighton Oprah who?! I think it’s the Black Eyed Peas who say “Let’s paint the town, we’ll shut it down.”
@caratweets I might understand or care if it was for something cool. Black Eyed Peas? The eloquent wordsmiths of BOOM BOOM POW? No.
@GoodyGoody I don’t have a problem with The O shutting it down. She has contributed greatly to this city in more ways than one.
@jalant I live on Michigan Ave-DON’T EVEN girlfriend, OH SNAP!! (unless I get to be a part of it) 😛
@eolson426 Forget Mayor Daley – it’s clear that Oprah runs this city.
@JFranRam Hey as far as I know, Oprah is God, so if she feels like parting the Mag Mile, by all means.
@cwardzala I think it’s insane. She needs to be stopped!
