American TV icon Oprah Winfrey has firmly denied reports claiming she was paid $1 million to campaign for Democratic candidate Kamala Harris in the recent U.S. presidential election.
Speculation had circulated after the Washington Examiner reported that her company, Harpo Productions, received compensation to host a celebrity town hall for Harris in September.

Setting the record straight, Oprah clarified to TMZ that she wasn’t paid a cent for her support, saying, “Not true. I was paid nothing, ever.”
Despite the controversy, Oprah declined to comment on the election outcome, which saw Donald Trump reclaim the office as the President-elect. The talk show legend’s statement has sparked mixed reactions online, with supporters applauding her transparency and others questioning the role of celebrity endorsements in politics.
