I'm sure this would've gone over great if someone like Ellen DeGeneres was talking an African product and going, "Oomboogooleh oomboogooleh tik tik AYA KENYAAAA!"

Double standards of racism in America FTW.  Get off your fucking high horses.

[OnEarthTravel]

you are retarded and an idiot, how is it not racist? She's mocking asian people and their language. Saying random shit and saying oh "thats what I said?" oh man wtf

It's basically like me saying for example "Galadsjdks dsfkdsfyuh nohdsfds dead yetedsf'

oh I'm speaking jamaican.

now thats EFFING racist.

You can tell she was angry that the Japanese want whiter skin.

[keverinkarama]

let oprah say her ignorant shit... im more interested in who that sales lady is ;)

[standingabove]

it was more her incapability to speak japanese than the japanese language itself that was mocked. niggas need to grow up

[RudeDan]

What? She was light-heartedly imitating the Japanese language. People are so oversensitive and ridiculous.

[ohtanit]

lol "howaito sengan" and "sohafddgsgas" is different.

but thats what happens when you can't read/pronounce a language. i was the same with german lol

I think it was supposed to be more light-hearted than what many seem to be making it into. Anyway, it does still make you think about societal standards. Especially because it's a "skin whitening" product AND she talks gibberish!

[Dred7315]

WOW nice video qualitys

[asianmovement]

I don't find this offensive. She said it jokingly. light humor. She was making fun of herself and not Japan. :D

[davisonguy2000]

it wasnt funny when rosie did it and its not funny when oprah does it it its not an imitation of an accent its plain racist period.
