Sky News:

Oprah Winfrey has said she recently became a victim of racism when a shop assistant in Switzerland refused to show her a £24,477 handbag saying it would be "too expensive" for her.

The US chat show host, who is one of the richest women in the world, was in Zurich for Tina Turner’s wedding when she decided to go shopping alone.

Even if the "Oprah Winfrey Show is not shown in Zurich," it seems impossible that any soul in a major First World city would be unable to recognize the face of Oprah Winfrey. It's like not being able to recognize Michelle Obama or Hillary Clinton or Whoopi. What planet does this purse monger live on? And why is Tina getting married at 73?
