In this web-only clip from Oprah Winfrey's sit-down with Piers Morgan, the hugely successful talk show host talks about her biggest failure. Find out what it was – and how she dealt with it.
The full interview will be the premiere episode of "Piers Morgan Tonight" – and airs Monday, January 17 9pmET/PT.
Oprah says her biggest failure was the box office response to "Beloved." It "sent me into a massive, depressive, macaroni and cheese eating tailspin,” she says. It was "the only time in my life I was ever depressed. And I recognized, 'I am depressed'...where you feel like you're behind a veil."

If Oprah had indeed learned from her shows about depression, she should realize that it is a physiological condition. She may have been severely bumed out, but she definitely wasn't "depressed. I like Oprah, don't get me wrong. I just feel as if she is being a bit overly dramatic and insensitive to those who really struggle with depression.
I agree with Jane. True depression does not occur the way Oprah is describing it. I believe she was in a bad place for a limited time. The fact that this is her idea of "understanding" what the people she interviews goes through, then I venture to say, it is a surface interview which she can not truly understand; so therefore, is it just about ratings. Same as "quick-fix" Dr. Phil. Can be dangerous to open a can of worms with individuals for an hour, and then leave them on their own to deal with what comes up during a show. It's about the show in the guise of "helping" others.
OMG what was the bloody florist thinking?

What's the pinging sound in her mic? Did no one have headphones on when they rolled this?
Piers isn't really a slimeball. Don't believe what EVERYONE says in Britain.
So this is CNN's big thing? a tough interview with Oprah? sad
If he asks: You had the good sense to stop going to the church of Jeremiah Wright, who is anti-American and anti-White according to many. Why? Fopr business reasons or b/c you found him extreme?Why do you think President Obama didn't at least anticipate that people would raise eyebrows at that association of his?
that would be a good question--likely not asked but I will check
I'd like my children to know that God is real. He is aliavable and desires to be involved in every area of their life. I'd like for them to know His voice and to communicate with Him daily. I'd like for them to involve God in all of their life and to trust Him with everything.If they know these things, they can handle anything with Him as life happens!
