Oprah Winfrey is on the grind this week, urging the people of Texas to get out and vote — and her first grassroots outreach effort is something you gotta see to believe.
The TV icon, media mogul and billionaire revealed Monday night she was making cold calls to prospective voters … in partnership with Beto O’Rourke‘s Powered by People org.
Anyway, she says her first call was to a guy named Christian, and ya gotta see the intros — “Christian, this is Oprah Winfrey.” At first, he can’t believe it, but after hearing the voice for a few seconds, he comes around. Yeah, he was starstruck.
Oprah asks him — on a scale of 1 to 10 — how ready he is to get engaged with early voting in the Lone Star State … and Christian’s answer was a home run with O.
If anything … he kinda left her starstruck with how prepared he was to hit the polls. You can tell, whatever speech she was prepared to make to rally Christian to vote was rendered useless. Beginner’s luck … it even applies for Oprah!
Next time ya dodge that unknown number, it could be a legend trying to get you on the line. (We know you still won’t pick up)
