In a nutshell, the Hollywood pressure seems to breed feuds, particularly among notable black women. A possible feud between Oprah Winfrey and Taraji P. Henson surfaced over the remake of “The Color Purple.” Oprah’s Instagram post praising Henson’s role in the film was seen by some as a response to Henson’s public comments about pay disparity. The online conversation shifted to why Oprah, as a producer, didn’t advocate for better pay. Past tensions between Oprah and Whoopi Goldberg were also mentioned, but they reconciled later. Henson clarified on Instagram that Oprah had been supportive and provided guidance during filming. Despite this, some of Henson’s followers remained skeptical of Oprah. The post didn’t sway them, leading to ongoing discussions about Oprah’s responsibility and the resolution of any potential feud.
