Oprah Winfrey is taking the internet’s colorful commentary in stride.
Following her recent appearance at Paris Fashion Week alongside best friend Gayle Kingthe media mogul addressed social media commentary regarding the way she walked as she made her way to the Chloe runway show during the event.
“You know how people drag you on the internet? They were dragging me and Gayle,” she said during a taping of The Oprah Podcastas seen in March 12 Instagram video. “They were like, ‘Look at them walking like they’re 90 years old.’”
Oprah, 72, explained that her commitment to her ensemble was to blame for her unusually slow pace, noting that the sunglasses her stylist gave her for the outing impaired her eyesight.
“I wear glasses or I wear contacts,” she continued. “Those were not prescription glasses, so I didn’t know where I was walking. I could not see. So everybody who’s saying, ‘You’re walking like you’re 90,’ I could not see.”
