Oprah Winfrey and her production company are denying she was “paid a personal fee” by Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign.
“Not true,” Winfrey said in a TMZ video. “I did not get paid a penny. Ever.”
Her statement was in response to reports Winfrey herself was paid $1 million by the Harris campaign.
“The campaign paid for the production costs of ‘Unite for America,’ a live-streaming event that took place Sept. 19 outside Detroit, Mich.,” a spokesperson for Harpo said in a statement, per Variety. “Oprah Winfrey was at no point during the campaign paid a personal fee, nor did she receive a fee from Harpo.”
