Jerry Seinfeld’s wife Jessica went on Oprah last week to promote her cookbook (*yawn*), Deceptively Delicious — and, surprise, surprise, it became a national best-seller the following week. So when Jerry visited Oprah yesterday to promote Bee Movie (*yawn*… sorry, I must be tired), with Jessica sitting in the front row, Oprah took the opportunity to inform everyone that Jessica had thanked her by sending 21 freakin’ pairs of mostly Christian Louboutin shoes. Yes, 21 pairs of $1000 shoes. Which, by my calculations, equals… one MILL-ion dollars! Oh wait, no — it’s $21,000.
Math never was my forte.
Gosh, it warms my heart when a multi-multi-millionaire wife sends a Louboutin basket to a billionaire who already has a walk-in closet of shoes bigger than my house. It makes ME want to perform a random act of kindness, like go to The Ivy and pay for Eva Longoria’s tab!
I wonder, however, if Jessica accounted for Oprah’s sixth toe, aka her bunion? That’s right — Oprah can’t wear just ANY ol’ overpriced pair of strappy heels. So if you need someone to take that basket off your hands, Oprah… you can find me at The Ivy today.
Looks like Oprah has a hammer toe that needs fixin’, too. Yikes.

October 16th, 2007 at 11:01 amShe couldn’t donate that $$$ to a charity in Oprah’s name? I don’t think Oprah would’ve minded in the least.
October 16th, 2007 at 11:06 amJessica should have written a book about how to land a super rich man. I would have bought that.
October 16th, 2007 at 12:47 pmHH: and she would have to add to the title: “how to land a super rich guy AND crush the heart of your 1st husband of 1 week.”
October 16th, 2007 at 1:09 pmPayless..BOGO wouldn’tve cut it I guess.
October 16th, 2007 at 4:01 pmOK, this just gets worse. (My initial reaction to this is at http://www.soysister.blogspot.com)
Why doesn’t JS use the profits to combat childhood obesity?
G-d knows neither she nor Oprah needs the money or shoes…

October 18th, 2007 at 9:50 pmShe should have bought her some Birkenstocks.
