Oprah Winfrey Gives Away Car to Stunned Audience Member on Jimmy Kimmel Live

It was revealed last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live that Oprah Winfrey suffers from a debilitating condition. The talk show maven was mid-interview when she was suddenly overcome with “that feeling,” she said.

Appearing on the show to promote her new film, Lee Daniels’ The Butler, Winfrey started to talk about her costar Forest Whitaker when she suddenly paused and said, “Hold on a minute. I just, I just got that feeling again.”

“I really didn’t want it to happen here,” she continued as a perplexed Kimmel tried to figure out what was going on. A distraught Winfrey then asks a random girl from the audience to come to the stage, at which point it becomes clear what her ailment is — the need to give away super-expensive gifts to unsuspecting people!
