Oprah's Fans in Chicago

Oprah Winfrey is an icon in the world today. Her fan base is as far reaching as her good deeds. Her fans are drawn to her because of her approach to life and her desire to help others.

Oprah’s Chicago fans have been beneficial to Oprah. The Chicago fans in the past helped Oprah to contact AJ McLean and support him in his struggle with addiction. Their inspirational help is a positive way the fans of Chicago have made a difference with others.

Oprah’s fans can become a little too excited at times. This did occur during one of the times when her Chicago fans were locating seats during a show's taping. One fan was injured in the hustle and bustle of excited fans, and was pushed down some stairs and seriously injured. This controversial dilemma can be viewed as one way Oprah fans in Chicago become unruly due to their excitement over seeing Oprah.

On a more positive note, Chicago fans are able to enjoy the benefits of living in the same city as Oprah. They can and do visit the store in Chicago where Oprah sells the clothes and shoes she is not wearing any more. This boutique also includes other items from her home which she no longer needs. The items available for Chicago fans are either new or used, but are deemed authentic as previously owned by Oprah. The proceeds for these items all go to Oprah’s charities. Helping Oprah maintain the charity donations through purchasing her personal items is another way Oprah fans in Chicago support their local icon.
