Oprah Winfrey Refuses the Late Show with David Letterman
Oprah and David Letterman were two people who had widely successful shows at the same time. Nonetheless, a longstanding feud between the two persisted for 25 years, which escalated to the point where Oprah Winfrey declared she would never make an appearance on his show due to his tendency to make subtle jabs at her. Their feud stemmed from a prank Letterman pulled on Oprah in Paris, where he duped her into paying for dinner.
Fortunately, they have managed to resolve their issues since then and have made appearances on each other’s shows. However, for a significant period of time, it appeared unlikely that such a reconciliation would ever occur.
