British singer Seal has lambasted Oprah Winfrey for her supposed hypocrisy following the recent Golden Globe awards ceremony.

Seal took to social media to accuse the talk show host of being “part of the problem for decades” in regards to sexual harassment in the entertainment industry.

Winfrey’s speech at the awards ceremony was widely praised for its celebration of women who have spoken out about sexual misconduct in Hollywood.

Seal shared two photos of Winfrey and Harvey Weinstein together, with the caption “When you have been part of the problem for decades, but suddenly they all think you are the solution”.

In his accompanying post, Seal sarcastically suggested that Winfrey was aware of Weinstein’s alleged behavior all along.

The singer’s accusations have sparked a heated debate on social media, with some users coming to Winfrey’s defense, while others have praised Seal for calling out the talk show host.

Winfrey’s speech at the Golden Globe awards has also sparked widespread speculation that she may run for US president in the next election.

In a BBC interview with Andrew Marr, director Steven Spielberg and actors Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks all voiced their support for a potential Winfrey presidency.

Streep said that she had heard that Winfrey was “really considering” running for office, and praised her as having “the voice of a leader”.

Spielberg also voiced his support for Winfrey, citing her years of experience building bridges and creating conversations between people who disagree on her television show as qualifications for office.

Hanks added that he believed Winfrey wakes up every morning wondering how she can make the world a better place.

Alluding to President Trump, Hanks also said that recent events have proven that anyone can become president if they want to.

Winfrey has not yet commented on the speculation surrounding her potential run for office, but President Trump has weighed in on the matter.

In a recent interview, Trump stated that he likes Winfrey but doesn’t think she will run, adding that it would be “a lot of fun” to go up against her.

The talk show host’s fans and supporters will no doubt be eagerly awaiting her response to the speculation and Seal’s accusations.

Regardless of whether or not Winfrey decides to run for office, her speech at the Golden Globe awards has undoubtedly resonated with many people and has sparked important conversations about sexual harassment in Hollywood and beyond.

The singer Seal may have ruffled some feathers with his accusations, but his intervention has also added fuel to the fire and has brought further attention to the issue at hand.
