Oprah Winfrey says she had an encounter with a rude fan at the airport in the ’90s, and that led her to use a private plane for travel.
Winfrey, who is on the cover of British Vogue’s August issue, spoke with the magazine’s Editor-in-Chief Edward Enninful for an interview. When asked about her “greatest luxury,” the actress and humanitarian said that it is having her own airplane — which she convinced herself to indulge in after she met an unpleasant person.
“There are days when I am more open and warm than others,” Winfrey explained. “One of the things that actually caused me in 1991 to get my own plane, I was in the airport and I was just minding my own business and a woman came up and she said, ‘You’re not acting like you do on TV.'”
