Chris Rock bashes Oprah’s pal

Oprah Winfrey’s best friend Gayle King caught a Chris Rock performance in Las Vegas, but she didn’t expect to be part of the act. The National Enquirer revealed that’s just what happened when Gayle brought a date along for the show.

“Chris went on for about 10-minutes about Gayle and her new friend Dean, who is considerably younger than her, and it go so bad she told her date she was leaving and they stormed out,” a source explained.

Chris shot back, “I’m sorry! If y’all don’t see me again, Oprah did it!”

While it’s unlikely Oprah will make him disappear, the Queen of Talk isn’t happy with the funnyman. “Oprah understands it was all in good fun, but Chris hurt someone she cares about very much,” an insider told the Enquirer. “Oprah says she plans to talk to Chris about it, but the damage has been done, and even a heart-felt apology won’t erase Gayle’s humiliation.”
