51 year old women gets ears pierced on live television

Filed under: — alisa @ 5:49 am

Yesterday on the Oprah show, Oprah got her ears pierced on live television. Did you know Oprah has worn clip ons all these years? I had no idea. As my mom and I watched Oprah freak out over getting some holes in her ears my mom told me that’s how Id be if I did that now. I whole hearty agree, I am wuss when it comes to things like that. Oprah squeeze the hand of an audience member like she was having a baby. I have to say, it was quite entertaining.

My mom kinda resents not just giving me earring as a baby. As Oprah says “without their consent!” Amen Oprah. When I see babies crawling around with earrings I don’t think its cute. I think, that poor baby. You know it cried and cried for no reason other than their mothers can have a cutter baby. There are some ugly babies out there, but those are very few and far between.

I’m no tom-boy but I just don’t wear jewelry often. It doesn’t make me feel pretty, it makes me feel uncomfortable more so. I think if I would to pierce my ears now it would be weird. Not for Oprah since she’s actually worn earrings all her life, were I have not. If I walked around with some bling bling on, everyone would wonder what’s up with me. Silly Oprah, if I ever decided to pierce my ears, it would not be in front of a large group of people. But, the holding of the hand is very important, for more than just piercing ears. :)
