Speaker 2: it's just like a random I've never been known. Great.
Speaker 3: No, I'm in a hoodie because you know, the studio's
Speaker 3: freezing and the ladies have to wear the cute dresses,

Speaker 2: So you were just like I'm just gonna come. I
Speaker 2: don't know what to do right now. I don't because
Speaker 2: when I between the scenes, I just say questions from
Speaker 2: the audience.

Speaker 2: I'm sassy, don't I don't know about you, but I
Speaker 2: don't like this audience person. No, she's a lot like
Speaker 2: this is making me almost go like I don't want
Speaker 2: to have an audience. But I'm basing it on one audience.
Speaker 1: Me, yeah, which which is a mistake. A lot most
Speaker 1: people are better people.
Speaker 2: Than me, Like you know, when you meet a shitty
Speaker 2: baby and then I'm not having kids, right, That's what
Speaker 2: I feel like. This audience member is like, Okay, look
Speaker 2: if I was asking, if I was an audio like
Speaker 2: this is like, this is These are the kind of
Speaker 2: audience members I will normally normally have at the show,
Speaker 2: So it would be like the person will be there, Hi, Anna, Oh,
Speaker 2: Hi Hi Trevor.
Speaker 1: They're cute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Trevor, I just wanted to know, how's your mom?
Speaker 2: You know, yes, your mom?
Speaker 1: Good's your mom?
Speaker 2: And she then like on my side, I will be like, yes,
Speaker 2: my mom is doing fantastic. Thank you so much for asking. See,
Speaker 2: well that's great. I have a question for Anna. Anna.
Speaker 2: I loved you in Pitch Perfect. I wish I could
Speaker 2: sing like you. I try to, but then my roommates
Speaker 2: tell me to shut up.
Speaker 1: Stop I Trevor, you have the nicest audience.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Can I take a Can I take a selfie
Speaker 2: with you? Thank you? Thank you? Wow? That was hardcore.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're really into no selfie.
Speaker 2: But I'm saying that. That's that's a nice that's generally
Speaker 2: the tone. The tone I'm saying. I'm not saying you
Speaker 2: were a bad audience member, by the way, I'm just saying,
Speaker 2: do you guys have any questions? What's my game? Attag?
Speaker 2: That's too personal. I was chatting to John before the
Speaker 2: show and I was like, so, what are you going
Speaker 2: to do while we're setting up? And he's like, well,
Speaker 2: I can just hang out with the audience and they
Speaker 2: can ask me questions and so and so. I said,
Speaker 2: you wouldn't want to do that, John Day animals and
Speaker 2: he said, no, no, give them a chance. Give them. So,
Speaker 2: if you've ever wanted to ask John Legend a question,
Speaker 2: don't ask him for like a record deal. Don't make
Speaker 2: it something like awkward, like real questions, like this is
Speaker 2: your moment to interview John Legend. So if you have
Speaker 2: a question that, yes, ma'am, you went up first.
Speaker 7: Just I don't think he knows anything yet. My daughter's
Speaker 7: very aware of my music. She requestsed. Finally, when I
Speaker 7: made the Christmas album, she started requesting my music from me.
Speaker 7: So she will like ask to listen to that ass
Speaker 7: Christmas music and uh in April any time of year.
Speaker 7: She doesn't care. So I've been listening to my Christmas
Speaker 7: album for like eight months now, you know.
Speaker 2: Can I tell you what I found really amazing is
Speaker 2: so Christy Tigan, John Legend. These guys are like hashtag
Speaker 2: couple goals. Everyone envies you. No, you seem like you
Speaker 2: have the most fun together, and then I feel like
Speaker 2: you have the perfect kids because no, because your daughter
Speaker 2: looks exactly like Chrissy, Like you go like, this is
Speaker 2: Miny Christy Tige, and then your son. The first time
Speaker 2: I saw the picture, I thought Christy Teagan had done
Speaker 2: a face swap. And I don't know, if you see
Speaker 2: like it looks a lot like me.
Speaker 7: He has my personality too.
Speaker 2: Are you so far?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Do you do you think either of them will get
Speaker 2: into music?
Speaker 7: You know, we'll see. I would love it if they
Speaker 7: loved music, But I'm not going to pressure them. I'm
Speaker 7: going to be like, you know, you have to go
Speaker 7: to piano lessons.
Speaker 2: You can be an accountants, but on the piano, yes, sir.
Speaker 7: The free music out there, well most of it's not free.
Speaker 2: Really.
Speaker 7: I think it's better than you know it being pirate,
Speaker 7: because it at least gives us an opportunity to be
Speaker 7: compensated for our work. So even when it's free, if
Speaker 7: there's ads, we're getting paid off of the ad revenue.
Speaker 7: And if you pay you know, your membership fee or whatever,
Speaker 7: we're getting a portion of that as well.
Speaker 2: And not just me.
Speaker 7: I'm rich, I'm fine, But honestly, there's a lot of
Speaker 7: songwriters and musicians and producers that aren't rich, and they
Speaker 7: deserve to get compensated for the work that they do.
Speaker 7: And so I'm happy that there's a regime now that
Speaker 7: actually accounts for the spends and make sure that if
Speaker 7: people's work is being used to make money, that they're
Speaker 7: getting a piece of that money. And so I think
Speaker 7: that's a good thing.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, do you think do you
Speaker 2: think streaming has improved the way we consume music or
Speaker 2: do you think it's made music more disposable?
Speaker 7: Well, I think it's changed it. I think it makes
Speaker 7: us listen to sing I think more than we did
Speaker 7: maybe twenty years ago. Whereas I think there was an
Speaker 7: album era, I think the old days there was more
Speaker 7: of a singles era.
Speaker 2: Actually, like I don't know the exact.
Speaker 7: Dates, but probably the sixties there is more of a
Speaker 7: singles era. But I think we're in a singles era again,
Speaker 7: so it's kind of making the album a little bit
Speaker 7: of a dinosaur the whole form.
Speaker 2: But people are still.
Speaker 7: Listening to albums all the way through, but I think
Speaker 7: less so than they used to. But actually think people
Speaker 7: consuming more music now than they ever have because they
Speaker 7: have access to so much music. But I think people
Speaker 7: are just mixing it the way they want to mix it.
Speaker 7: They're playlisting it, they're listening to curated playlists, and so
Speaker 7: you're just getting less emphasis on the album as a form.
Speaker 2: Now, all right, y'all, let's get ready for the performance.
Speaker 2: John Legend. Everybody Oprah has to leave. Yeah she was
Speaker 2: going anyway. Don't be greedy, but but but but but,
Speaker 2: I mean, this is like just a moment where we
Speaker 2: get to hang out. I know you're dying, So we'll
Speaker 2: do this. Two questions. I'll take one from the side
Speaker 2: of the audience and one from that side. Something you've
Speaker 2: always wanted to ask. Don't ask you what a favorite
Speaker 2: color is. Think for a moment. I'll ask you one
Speaker 2: question first, just to hit us on them so you
Speaker 2: can think for a little bit. Just one from this side,
Speaker 2: one from outside your best. You do it between the scenes.
Speaker 2: Just hang out and do it. This is like you.
Speaker 2: It's funny. I don't know you talked to your audience. Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: this is me. I just hang out with the real people.
Speaker 2: I love it. So are you kidding me? I wanted
Speaker 2: to know one thing you are, Oprah Winfrey. You have
Speaker 2: been very wealthy for a long time. You've worked hard
Speaker 2: to get there. I often wonder how much normal see
Speaker 2: this stool is in your life, Like, how many normal
Speaker 2: random things happened to you? Like does you when was
Speaker 2: the last time your phone ran out of battery while
Speaker 2: you were speaking? Does that ever happen to you?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: Okay, like like never?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 2: So, for instance, has there ever been a moment where
Speaker 2: you're in the bathroom and then the toilet roll is done? No? No,
Speaker 2: what is the most now you know why?
Speaker 4: Because at my house, in my house, I don't know
Speaker 4: if this happens your house, but in my house, when
Speaker 4: the toilet rollers checked regularly, and when it's been checked,
Speaker 4: like after you go into the bathroom, somebody will come
Speaker 4: in and it's folded into the.
Speaker 2: Little In a hotel, it's like, okay, okay, we'll take
Speaker 2: one from we'll take one from each side.
Speaker 4: I will tell you something's very normal that you wouldn't think.
Speaker 2: Okay, let's I travel.
Speaker 4: With my own uh, I travel with my own bread,
Speaker 4: and I bring my own avocados.
Speaker 2: Yes, I do. So I have an avocado orchard. So
Speaker 2: I think the story but normal over. You just said,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you something normal. They should have orchid.
Speaker 4: So I think it's ridiculous to pay for avocados, which is.
Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? That is not a normal story. Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, I made my own avocados because they're too expensive.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, another thing very normal, very normal, I do
Speaker 4: not The one thing I will not do is send
Speaker 4: my underwear out to be washed or clean.
Speaker 2: Wow. Okay, no, that's okay, that's you know why my
Speaker 2: grandmother would love that.
Speaker 4: She's just like five dollars for pair panties.
Speaker 2: That's the reason. That's the reason, oh, my grandmother. My
Speaker 2: grandmother would say, like, so, for instance, you know when
Speaker 2: you put the washing in the bosket and everything, and
Speaker 2: so everyone in the family, So I would do washing,
Speaker 2: then my cousin would do everyone want to do it,
Speaker 2: and then sometimes I would throw the under it and
Speaker 2: then my grandmother would come and then be like Teva,
Speaker 2: you want people to know your secrets? You want people
Speaker 2: question this, Yes, sir, I must know your secrets. All right,
Speaker 2: that's kid. We're gonta get out broadcast, so we're gonna
Speaker 2: get two questions. Yes, right at the top.
Speaker 7: To school in the United States.
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm actually thinking about it. I'm actually thinking about where.
Speaker 4: And the reason why I called it the Open Win
Speaker 4: Free Leadership Acady for Girls in South Africa because even
Speaker 4: then I was thinking, this will just be one, this
Speaker 4: will be like the satellite school, and then I will
Speaker 4: I will do others.
Speaker 2: But it's taken me a while to get it right.
Speaker 2: It took me about ten years.
Speaker 4: To actually get it right.
Speaker 2: So thank you for that question.
Speaker 4: I'm actually thinking about it.
Speaker 8: Where I want to do it?
Speaker 9: Yes, No, I just wanted to find up for me
Speaker 9: because I was mental health trained. Me that mental health
Speaker 9: first ay trained, and in my culture, I see people
Speaker 9: who with mental health issues because of trauma and parpacy.
Speaker 2: But they won't admit it. Yeah, what's the thing.
Speaker 9: How am I getting them to realize what the experience
Speaker 9: is actually trauma?
Speaker 2: We're going to normalize it.
Speaker 4: So Harry and I are going to normalize it to
Speaker 4: the point that people will be like, hey, I got
Speaker 4: mental illness, and that's what you want for it, To
Speaker 4: call it out to the point where it's no longer
Speaker 4: such a stigmatized big deal, is no longer a taboo
Speaker 4: that people say they recognize themselves immediately. I will tell
Speaker 4: you this that I when my girls, some of my
Speaker 4: girls first came here, I was talking to one on
Speaker 4: the phone who all the girls had said, this girl
Speaker 4: is depressed, she hasn't come out of her dor and
Speaker 4: blah blah blah. And we on the phone googled all
Speaker 4: the symptoms for depression. And this girl, who's now by
Speaker 4: the way, very well but said to me, I said,
Speaker 4: so you're every single symptom of depression. You need to
Speaker 4: get help. And she said, I can't be depressed. I'm African,
Speaker 4: and the Africans.
Speaker 2: Don't get depressed. That's that's a true thing of it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I can't be depressed. I'm African.
Speaker 4: So I want to erase that, and the way to
Speaker 4: do it is by talking about it more.
Speaker 2: So watch the series. All Right, So that's it. That's it. Fuck,
Speaker 2: But I like, I have one final question before you
Speaker 2: go I one of the greatest pressures, in my opinion
Speaker 2: of being Oprah Yeah, is that everywhere you go people
Speaker 2: are waiting for you to tell them to look under
Speaker 2: their seats. Yes, because everyone's waiting for you to give
Speaker 2: them something. So I want to say, look out to
Speaker 2: your seats. Everybody get dumpo. You're all getting a book.
Speaker 2: You're getting a book.
