OPRAH Winfrey is being talked about as a possible US ambassador to Great Britain in a Barack Obama administration.
The scenario was suggested yesterday in an item in the London Times that quoted "well-placed sources" as saying her name had been "floated" for the job, considered the top rung of all US ambassadorships.
But a spokeswoman at Winfrey's Chicago TV company said: "She hasn't been approached."
The appointment would be seen as a reward for Winfrey's endorsement of Senator Obama's run for president. She made that official last December, the first time she had publicly backed a candidate.

This woman packed her personal jet with friends last year, flew to Paris just to buy shoes, then threw a public temper tantrum when the manager of the store refused to open it because it was after hours. She ranted and raved for 30 minutes about how she was Oprah Winfrey and he was a nobody who should do her bidding because of it.
Sarah Palin is celebrity, and nothing more. Oprah Winfrey is a frickin talk show host, and nothing more. We are not going to appoint celebrities to political positions, are we?
Sickening.
