Oprah wants the first Jaycee Dugard interview

Oprah Winfrey will begin her 24th season of the Oprah Winfrey show on Monday, and there is one person she wants to interview this year…Jaycee Dugard.  And usually, what Oprah wants, Oprah gets. 

"I want that interview," Oprah told Samantha Harris. "Obviously, like everybody else in this business, I have 'my people' working on that. Now, this is the truth...I really don't care about getting interviews first and all that stuff....Really, truly, I don't play that game. I feel like if somebody wants to talk to me, they will talk to me. If they don't want to talk to me and they want to talk to whomever, fine. But this is the one I want," the Huffington Post reported.

Oprah added, "It's the first time I have ever called up a producer and said, 'Are we on this story? Because I want that interview!'"

    give it up..leave her and her family alone and nobody should get an interview.. and if oprahs rich butt wants an interview then she should have to pay a lot of money for it.

    First Jaycee was abused by 'Creepy Phil." Now she will be exploited by "Creepy Oprah." Seriously Ms. Winfrey you should talk to Dr. Phil and maybe he could explain to you that an interview is probably not in her best interest. Once again the rich exploit for personal fame and money. SICK ! ! !

    Ms. Dugard does not need to expose herself to Oprah. Oprah is not sensitive and is only seeking her own glory. Oprah does not deserve to be in the same room as Ms. Dugard. Oprah interviewed Mary Winkler a couple of years ago and was as insensitive as she could have been, and treated Ms. Winkler as if she were stupid. I would urge Ms. Dugard to write her own book and get her own credit for her own years of endurance until she was reunited with her family. My prayers are with Ms. Dugard during this time. May she and her family live a blessed and long life from this day forward.
