Oprah Winfrey to dedicate show to Michael Jackson

The Associated Press
CHICAGO (AP) — Talk show host Oprah Winfrey plans to dedicate an upcoming episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to late pop singer Michael Jackson.

Harpo Productions announced Wednesday the episode, to air Sept. 16, will feature excerpts from Winfrey's 1993 interview with Jackson. Jackson died June 25 in Los Angeles. His death has been ruled a homicide.

A release from Harpo Productions says Winfrey will remember "the King of Pop with never-before-revealed personal details" from the interview.

The 24th season of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" premieres Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 14 and 15, with a two-part interview with singer Whitney Houston.

  • Just as long as it is a respectful show. I don't want to see some tabloid piece of junk. I don't want to see the likes of Diamond..Halperin.. Lavin...or any of those whose felt it was their job to tear down MJ. They didn't give a darn if it was true...
