Winfrey was credited as an executive producer on On the Record, but has since removed herself from the documentary and pulled its forthcoming release on Apple TV+. (However, it will be premiering on January 25 at Sundance.) Although Simmons didn't have anything to do with this, Winfrey did admit that the entertainment mogul pressured her to leave the doc.
In a New York Times report, Winfrey said Simmons "reached out multiple times and attempted to pressure me," as well sent her multiple "frightened" calls and text messages. Simmons also made posts on social media speaking out against Winfrey's involvement in the project, as well as his accusers.
"I told him directly in a phone call that I will not be pressured either into, or out of, backing this film," Winfrey said to the Times. "I am only going to do what I believe to be the right thing."
On January 10, Winfrey announced that she was leaving the documentary, saying that although she believed the victim (the film is primarily centered on one of Simmons', Drew Dixon), she felt the film was being rushed to Sundance "before I believe it is complete."

on the other hand what HAS or what CAN black men do for Oprah
it's been only white men that has really fckd with her up to this point. And she did put Tyla Perry & Lee on.
and she's a lesbian :dead:
I'm just tryna figure out why str8 black men (Monique), feel like they are OWED something from Oprah Win'
I acknowledge her shady ways, but I ALSO acknowledge the 100% true fact that str8 black men aren't shit, and won't ever be shit
it's not gonna kill us to sit through a Russ' doc... we don't even like him :dead:
this should actually be a "play ball" type of situation .... tbh
s
and I mean ... it's not like she's out here making docs about Barack or Nelson or any other power black man
upon further consideration ... I'm siding with the lesbian
I feel like the "not shit" black men are tryna find something to rally behind and divert... "oh but white ppl do it too!"
ok nigger, neat! but you're in the same category as Weinstein at best, not above him
greenlight the doc Op'!!!!!
and ain't that just like a typical black nigger doe :dead:

You don't know who Russell Simmons is? The guy from the MTV show is his brother.
Russel Simmons is the founder of Def Jam. Probably the first hip-hop mogul/ entrepreneur.
He's been around forever. And I'm thinking was probably involved in some wild sex parties involving a lot of alcohol and maybe even drugs with of-age women back in the days when he was younger.
Now that there is the Me Too movement, some girl came forward to say she wasn't in the right mind back then and smear his name.
Oprah inserted herself by making a documentary. I'm not sure she should have done this especially when she is friends with some well known white sexual predators.
We'll see how it plays out...
It could also be from a ratings/profit standpoint tho. Michael Jackson, R. Kelly, and Russell Simmons are more entertaining than Harvey Weinstein..
And did she do anything with Bill Cosby?
Did she kill steadman?
Wasn't he her house nigger
He lived out back right?

Have you seen the MJ cult dragging her? They are obsessed and quite extreme. She did what she had to do..support the accusers and get the story out there. Same with Russell. If a white person would go after him they would probably call them racist. Oprah wants to hold people accountable..especially those who are in power. Harvey already has a lawsuit, no point to hunt him down. Wade & Safechuck have a lawsuit coming up, no need to talk about MJ anymore.
That's the thing I didn't get about Surviving R Kelly part 2, he is already in jail. The people who were abused already stepped forward and joined the lawsuit.

And she didn't "need" to do that. Michael is 6 feet under. What were they gonna do? Brush the maggots off his hands and throw cuffs on them?
sdfdfds
He was never convicted, he's not here to speak for or defend himself, and she ended up RETRACTING the mess she put out by removing all traces of it from her social media.
She's late and tired at this point and I'm glad she's finally sitting down somewhere. If she's really out on the highways and byways doing God's work, why the hell isn't she STANDING in the mess.
He was never convicted because wade kept defending him. They felt like they needed to tell this story and also go after the enablers..it is not just mj but there were people protecting him and even contributing to the abuse.
I don't blame her for deleting every trace, i can imagine she got some death threads afterwards..
In a new interview with The Guardian, Reed discusses the death threats he received from some Jackson superfans and what it was like having protesters turn up to his office.
Speaking to Rolling Stone earlier this year, Reed said: "I'm getting horrible email messages from Michael Jackson fans. Several thousand emails in the past three weeks. Absolutely as disgusting as you could possibly invent."
They are worse than the Berts on twitter. Even defending pedo's in strange ways, claiming Wade liked the abuse.
The image MJ had was amazing, he really was a great performer and singer. The accusers were the biggest fans as well and wanted to believe in this perfect illusion. He was sick. Even Elton confirmed recently he was a disturbed person.
I do disagree with putting Russell Simmons in the same category as R Kelly & MJ. There are victims but they are not underage and if the allegations are true I don't think he was a serial rapist like Harvey. Oprah should be more careful accusing people.

He was never convicted because
because there was NO EVIDENCE to use. There was no DNA, the kids didn't even know what his dick looked like when supposedly they were being molested multiple times. These kids were pawns used by their parents to exploit Mike for money

who is Elton for his word to be so important? Wasn't he on drugs?
Macaulay said he never did anything and he was around him probably the most.

Ray why do you think he didn't touch those boys?
Cause I feel like he did. But what Annie is saying is, he was prolly sick because of how he grew up. The things he never go to experience and the evil he seen in the industry.
He seen himself as a kid, so I don't think he molested them really hard, moreso, he saw himself as a kid, just messing around with other kids.
!!!!
I wish they could do a lie detector test but then again it may not be reliable I don't know..we'll see what happens with the trial. They may broadcast it live I read. That would be a spectacle, mj fans are going to be outside protesting.
I actually ignored all the rumors of abuse until the doc aired, I loved me some MJ songs and the music vids. But these interviews and the details just made me sick and now I can't listen to his music the same. Their body language alone, Safechuck still in denial about what that relationship really was. Wade realized there was something wrong after his own child was born. It took such a long time for them to 'snap out of it', MJ really messed with their heads.
Anyways I'm gonna read this before he gets cancelled

Man the reality is that something was off. And nobody wants to clock it. It's ok, it wasn't Mike's fault, but it doesn't excuse it happening and the ppl around him letting it happen.
