I wouldn't be surprised at this happening.  In fact, I've been waiting for it.  Michelle, according to her brother, is very DEMANDING and must have her way, or else.  And my bet is that she's also very controlling, manipulative and jealous.  Enter Oprah, rich, attractive, popular, intelligent = a threat.  Well, you figure out the rest.

I call BS. No one messes with the oprah.

nah i'm willing to bet they're going to be new BFF's. Gails old news now!

This is ridiculous!  Here we go with the same old African American woman stereotypes.  Assumptions that we are always angry, possessive, jealous and controlling. Both of these women are extremely accomplished in their own right.  I think this story is an insult!  Not just to both ladies, but to Black women everywhere!  Anything to sell a paper!

Monica you have to be the most ignorant narrow minded person thats made a comment on here yet. There is nothing racist about the article. Its an article of one woman vs. another, no color mentioned. Its people like you that cause unecessary ripples in the water, making stereotypes where there is none. Get your head checked. I have personally met Michelle Obama and she is a bitch (Barack is civilized and polite though). She's very condescending and when she shakes your hand she looks at you like she knows she's better than anyone else in the room. There's a reason why the campaign managers tried to prevent her from speaking publicly after her few "loose mouth mishaps"....So, honestly even though I think The Globe is no better than Enquirer, I wouldnt be suprised if there was tension between her and Oprah. Oprah is poised and compassionate vs. Michelle Obama who is poised and snobby.

and stella,

your comments were broad minded and well informed?

i think i've met you and you have a fishy smell coming form down low!

now, figure out how many levels of stereotypr i've just levelled against you.

idiot!

i think that the papers are definately making this one up. this shows that indeed you cant believe anything that is  written in those types of papers. even if there were conflicts between the ladies, i think that they are way too classy to expose the truth like that. now if it came from barbara walters or a cnn network i'd be more incline to believe it. i dont think that the story is racist but i think that it sounds sexist; how dare them assume that women are always fighting over men. leave michelle and oprah alone and write about more meaningful and perhaps educational subjects like the economy or the thousands of veterans that are facing homelessness this winter.

I like Barack Obama. I would have voted for him in a minute had I not heard Michelle speak. She defiantly has tones of racism while Barack does not. Her interview on 60 minutes last night is great proof that she's all about herself. I believe there were about three times during the interview she put Barack down a peg. 1) When she was talking about how little money he had while working his way up instead of say, "we had our lean times". Instead she chose to say "in Barack’s car, I could see the road through the bottom of the car, so you see, I didn't marry him for his money". 2) When Barack mentioned that he missed being able to take walks now that he is the President Elect. He even said to Michelle "I would like to take you for a walk". Her response on national T.V., was "I wouldn't go". What kind of a First Lady is this? Berating her husband on national T.V.! 3) When they were talking about Barak’s D.C. apt., Michelle said “oh I wouldn’t stay there; I saw it but wouldn’t stay there”. I think she has such low self-esteem that she over compensates by “trying” to be a snob. It works against her. People who have reason to be snobs, i.e. Oprah or Barack don’t have any reason in the world to act like this as they know who they are and don’t have to prove anything to anyone. Michelle defiantly has a chip on her shoulder. She’s the “First Lady”?? Yikes!

I did vote for B Obama. Too bad the First Lady position isn’t up for voting on. I would have voted for Oprah.

I like Michelle Obama,because she is smart and funny and pretty down to earth. "Lean times?" She just says it like it is... and that is real and refreshing. I do not think that Michelle Obama is snobby, she is just more honest and open  than most people expect her to be. So what if she lets the world know that she doesn't like walks, big deal. She is a force to be reckoned with and she is as solid as a rock.

I like Michelle and she just told it like it was, the way the staffer talk about Obama's apt, I would not stay there either.  Barack seems to think that is is funny when she talks about his car and apartment, it seems to be a joke with them. So she doesn't like to walk in the cold, her husband doesn't seem to have a problem with that. Anytime that that women are smart & agressive and know what they wants people call her a bitch, be she black, white, blue or purple.  I think that Michelle is a class act and you can see that her husband loves.  I will wait to see how things turn out with her and Oprah, they might not become best friends, but that does not mean that they are fueding either.  Every got all over Hillary about her hair, Nancy about her "star gazing", so I guess people have to find something to talk about with Michelle.  She is one classy lady and I am proud to have her as the first "Lady".  

This issue appears to be important to the press as news is their bread & butter, but don't you guys have anything else to talk about it? let's talk about the global recession issues and its impact on every walks of life....

Michelle & Oprah are intelligent ladies by their own rights, both have actively supported Obama in his campaign with both - Michelle bearing the additional responsibility of taking care of family and Oprah her talk show. Drop whatever the issue is... to them ..to solve, its some thing personal to them even if its true, we have no right to intrude [even to make a comment] Kindly remember that please. I acknowledge & respect their privacy.

Obama is a great leader and has lots to accomplish, even if do not have time to aid him [No worries, he will still accomplish what he has to, I have the confidence in his abilities] but atleast let's not weigh him down psychologically with issues such as these.

I think this is so funny I cant stop laughing. Do you think either woman is something other than human... Geeze... I bet your sweet boo boo that Michelle has lost sleep over thinking her man may stray... funny funny funny

Oprah, needs to back off. she thinks because she has so much money that she can do and get what ever she wants. Oprah's life isn't what she wants the world to believe. she is not in love with Stedman, she was hoping to get Jamie Fox and now Obama. I think that Oprah has lots of secrets and her personal problems like her yo yo weigh, and all the problems with Stedman thearting to a tell all book scared the hell out of her. she is a very powerful and popular woman but she does have a heart and if she  keeps messing with Obama she will not be able to recover from the negitave meida  that will be the end of her.

Well, Oprah had a show based on how demanding and controling SOME black women can be. I have seen this for myself in the public places. On that show BLACK men were the ones complaining!  Did you see the "Color Purple", maybe they have a right to be.  Just do it to your black men and leave us white women alone we've always been on your side.  As far as Obama is concerned, well he is half white, quarter black, quarter asian.  He don't count.  lololol.

I think michelle needs to learn more about being the firstlady, and enrolling herself to manners, etiquettes and such things. i also think that oprah is prettier than her and a reason why she can be jealous. her husband (barack) seems to be a good man and very eager to help out our country, however she michelle needs to her part. from all her answers to the previous interviews, i can really feel the racism, she may not have spoken a word, but her loooks, and the way she controls herself is so eerie...too bad she will be the first lady. i like obama though..

I've met Oprah in a work situation and she has a HUGE ego.  Don't get me wrong, she has done some very good things for this world, but she isn't the most likeable person on earth close up.  Her ego is pretty much out of control and can be really obnoxious.  I can't watch her show anymore after meeting her.

Michelle is used to being around people who are awestruck because she went to Ivy League schools. Oprah is used to being the star of every gathering.

Barack Obama is a manipulator who has sold himself to the public without much of a record and coasted in on people's eagerness to prove they weren't racist by voting for a black man for President, any black man would do, Obama was just the one who was there.

So Barry has two Me-Me-Me women in his life. One thinks she should get as much attention as he does; the other thinks she got him elected with her media power and that gives her a central role in "history" beside him. How is it possible that these two women aren't going to clash?

Bear Fan couldn't have said it any better. I watched 60 minutes and could not help but be disappointed by Michelle's behavior. A woman should always be supportive of her man - esp. in public and on national TV. The nail for me was when she said she couldn't spend a night at his apartment in DC...woman i thought is was 'for better or for worse, in a huge house or a hole in the wall...It will be interesting to watch her in the white house.Personally i dont care for wither of them...

i think these comments about oprah and michelle need to stop.  oprah is in love with steadman and gail and has been for years.  now that obama is in office, people are going to say any and everything negative about him and his wife.  It is about race.  no one said anything about nancy regan or the bush wives.  soon as a black man and his wife goes to the white house, or the richest black woman in america gets a title like that folks start tripping.  get over it. change has come.  

I think every needs to mind there own every day life. It might do us some good to have 2 powerful women getting our oppions out. Weither friends or not.

When I heard and read this comment about Oprah and Michelle Obama I thought to myself could this really be true and, I really don't doubt if Oprah is trying to subtely influence Obama because, whenever anyone speaks for you or, puts in a good word for you, whether it is someone rich or someone who has influence, they will always try to make you feel you owe them.  After reading all the comments about Michelle and Oprah, I really believe that society really feels that they have a right to interfere into the personal lives of anyone.  Whether Michelle Obama is or is not as someone has stated: "manipulative and jealous - and Oprah, rich, attractive, popular, intelligent = a threat" It is Michelle Obama's "Right" to "protect, speak up, and defend her position as the "Wife" of "Barack Obama" and, if she feels that Oprah is interferring too much into their marriage she has the right to speak out about it, to her husband and to Oprah and, whether you believe that Michelle Obama has or don't have the right to defend her position as Obama's wife, "God" does and, some of you need to read the Bible more and get some understanding and wisdom because, whether you believe in Bible and God or not, some of us do, and those of us who do believe and accept what the Bible says about a "Woman having her own husband and, attending to her own husband, not someone elses" feel that Oprah needs to get her own husband which she could have had but don't have and, that is for a reason....You think about it, she could have been married to Steadman a long time ago but, she's not Why?  So, for those of you who think that Michelle Obama should put up with any time of marriage situation, or live with her husband in any type of condition you'v been indoctrinated.  No where in the bible does it say that a Woman should put up with any kind of situation or go to any kind a place with her husband - So, as someone stated in their comments:  "The nail for me was when she said she couldn't spend a night at his apartment in DC...woman i thought is was 'for better or for worse, in a huge house or a hole in the wall...

You need to know that the Bible does not say "For better or for worse, in a huge house or a hole in the wall" those  words "For better or for worse" were written by "Man" because there are no "Matrimonial" words(vows) in the Bible for anyone to say when they get married.  The Bible simply states that, unless there is a reason for divorce like (marital defilement) it is expected for the two who are married to stay married until death.  So, everyone and Oprah need to stay out of Michelle Obama's "Marriage" and let the Obama's take care of their own Marriage because, it's "Their Right" not anyone else's.

I have no doubt that Michelle turned on Oprah right after they got all they needed from her. Oprah did endorse Obama and he might not have asked for it but just like anyone trying to do a good thing for someone they get taken advantage of. Oprah got used for her fame and that helped Obama get where he is today. So, why did Michelle Obama tell Oprah to back off? Because she isnt needed anymore duh!!!

and I agree with Stella, Monica is an idiot and is one of many people who do cause the ridiculous stereotypes. You only have yourself to blame. Who said anything about anyone being black? As a black person myself I wish people would stop being so quick to jump on the race thing anytime a black person is in the middle of any controversy.

First of all, not one person in this forum was there to hear what Michelle or Oprah said. Did anyone ‘not’ notice that the article said “Alleged feud”?! So to speculate on a presumed conversations is completely pointless. Second, while I did not vote for Obama and am even less fond of Michelle, there was absolutely nothing wrong with her 60-minute interview. So she doesn't want to go for a walk….so what?! Obviously Barack occasionally doesn’t want to do something she would like him to do, (as in doing the dishes she referred to in the 60-minute interview). And holes in car floors...big deal…life happens and she reminisced about it. And there was nothing in her interview that showed her being ‘all about herself’. People need to stop reading things into situations for their own benefit and start thinking about ways you can make the world a better place. And that could start right here by never assuming things when you don’t have the facts!

Emily, you are so wrong about Michelle Obama.Oprah is the way Mrs.Obama says it."back off of our president and white house,thank-you for your time of reading this.oh, and stop trying to get in the mix of cereral and milk and if you are sugar,stick with chocolate.
