I don't mean to hijack the thread but i just want to share a post from my friend back in the philippines which was aired there recently, I guess?
"I am sure many of you watched the
recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey show in
Chicago where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On
the show, she asked him if the statements about
race he was accused of saying were true.
Statements like "if I'd known African-
Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians
would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have
made them so nice. I wish these people
would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they (my
clothes) are made for upper-class white
people."
His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES"
whereafter she immediately asked him to
leave her show."
