A former flight attendant on Oprah’s private plane is suing the O for wrongful dismissal. In other words, Oprah fired the stewardess, and the stewardess is fighting back. So what did the flight attendant do to get fired? Did she speak out of turn?
Apparently the woman, Corrine Gehrls, had sex with the co-pilot midflight and Oprah fired her for her unprofessional behavior. Gehrls is claiming she is not a member of the Mile High Club, and was set up by the other flight attendants and the chief pilot who spread the rumor to deliberately get her fired.
She is seeking $75,000 in damages from Oprah and the other flight attendants. Hell, Oprah spends that money on dog collars. Bump up your asking price! Claim emotional distress from people thinking you’re a slut! Milk that cash cow!
It’s impossible for Oprah to lose a lawsuit. As much as she sucks as a person, she’s got as much immunity as the President. This guy wrote a good piece on her :
