Oprah/Chelsea: Our Generation's Frost/Nixon?

  • She's also known for hanging out with famous friends, like Charlize Theron and Jennifer Aniston.
  • "Chris Brown is so annoying and obnoxious, I mean, can we just send him to Russia or something?
  • "Many call Chelsea a paradox....Behind that vodka-swilling acid tongue is a vulnerable romantic who dreams of the perfect love story.
  • "I'm sitting down with the woman Time magazine called 'the anti-Oprah.'
  • Oh my God. Love a great kitchen, don't you?
  • I love that slab of wood for the table." "Thank you, that's from the Venice canals.
  • Sometimes those moments happen, and they pass you--" "That's right. That's why I said, I'm glad you took it in." "And then you look back at it, and you say, 'Oh my God, that was one of those moments I missed.'" "I just said this to Beyoncé.
  • The very first time I saw you, I knew you were going to be successful.
  • When Time magazine called you the anti-Oprah, what did you think that meant?" "Well...I don't, um...you know...people, it's funny when people--
  • For me, I feel like...deep down, I am a very good person....I always do the right thing, regardless of whether anyone's looking.
  • I think everybody loves Oprah; not everybody loves me.
    Well, not everybody loves me either.
    Well, most people do.
  • Are you a cruel person?" "Not to wax poetic about myself....
  • I don't feel like I'm a mean person, I would never do anything to hurt anybody.
  • First of all, you know I don't believe in serendipity. I believe that everything is happening in order. But that, when you receive a DUI....
  • There's no better revenge, I think, than success.
  • 'I know, you used to torture me. Can you believe how great my life has turned out?'...You'd have to be really a vindictive kind of person to really focus on that for that long.
  • I love Rosie.
    We both do.
  • My friend Charlize -- Theron -- is throwing me a birthday party, and I go, 'Let me at least pay for it. I'll let you throw it, but let me at least pay for it.'
  • It's very hard for me, in general, to let people pay for things.
  • Well, I can't meditate.
  • My friend's baby fell in the pool, and she's like, 'Chelsea! Hello! You're sitting right there!' I'm like, 'You're closer to him! You're right there! Why would I get up? You're his mother, you save him!'
  • Is it true that you actually, at fifteen, called Child Services on your father because you wanted to go to a party?
    Yes.
    And accused him of child molestation?
    No, not child molestation. I think I accused him of child abuse....I accused him of hitting me.
  • You were talking about how you would come home, you would watch the Oprah show, and you would masturbate.
  • I lied, because I always looked older than I was....
  • I've been able to do great things for all my family.
  • Do you think you are a paradox? That on the one hand, you can tell a joke, you can be crass, you can go all the way there with somebody, and then there's this other side, where you want to take care of your family, you're generous to your friends, you are, you know -- the softer side!
  • A lot of people would presume I'm just a bitch, and that...I don't care about anybody's feelings, which is not true at all. I'm completely empathetic to anybody. I mean, I don't even have to know them. I'm always trying to think of things.
