Oprah, Naturally

Here is Oprah looking all au naturel showing off the wigs she will be sporting in her role as Gloria Gaines in the film “The Butler.” Oprah plays Forest Whitaker’s wife in the movie, about a butler who served through several White House administrations. Oprah tweeted a pic of her in one of the wigs here.

Robin Williams and Melissa Leo portray the Eisenhowers. Minka Kelly and James Marsden are the Kennedys. Liev Schreiber will be Lyndon Johnson, John Cusack will be Richard Nixon and Nelsan Ellis will be Martin Luther King, Jr. And that’s just for starter’s. Alex Pettyfer, Alan Rickman, Jane Fonda, Mariah Carey and Terrence Howard are also in the star-studded film, as well as Jane Fonda.

The film is based upon an article in the Washington Post entitled “A Butle Well Served by Election” about the career of Eugene Allen, who worked at the White House through 8 presidencies.

Anyhow, we don’t know what the big deal is about Oprah without makeup showing her wigs. There have been plenty of pictures throughout the years of Oprah sans glamour, like this one from a couple of years ago.
