Iyanla Vanzant and Oprah Rehash Eleven Year Feud (VIDEO)
Iyanla Vanzant was Oprah Winfrey's relationship expert in the 90s before the two had a falling out. Iyanla went on to lauch her own show, but it never quite took off. The two revisited their feud on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show' (Weekdays, Syndicated).Oprah said she felt like Vanzant tried to strong-arm her into backing her show by saying she had another offer on the table. Vanzant pleaded ignorance and said she had no idea that was the way she was presenting herself. "I did lectures, workshops, class, public speaking -- but don't know, didn't know doodly about television."
Winfrey didn't buy it. "What I accept is that you knew what you were doing when you walked into that room and that you had the intention to force our hand," she said.
Vanzant vehemently denied that she was trying to force Winfrey's hand, but then seemed to backtrack. But just take a second to imagine if things had gone differently ... the world might never have ben introduced to Dr. Phil. We'll leave it to you to decide if that's a good or bad thing.
