Oprah, like the rest of us, is mesmerised by the video’s immaculate aesthetics; however, what demands our attention is the eagerness with which Oprah moves. There is an aura of celebration that surrounds her and it is celebrative and infectious. At seventy, both in terms of age and movement, which is a part of her household brand, Winfrey is energetic and lovely. There is no DSLR to immortalise the moment; Winfrey for once is living a moment without the urge to document herself.
“The look 70 and fabulous is yesss!!!!” stated one user which perfectly encapsulates and summarises the feelings of many. The speed and nature of the responses was also in some way, positive. Hundreds of likes were accumulated for this comment which shows how much humanity appreciates the way Oprah is living her life.
Another user commented regarding how lucky the people in the video are, saying “Those people are like ‘YO! We just jammed with OPRAH!!’” with some laughing and praising emojis. The same user stated, “I love how you’re celebrating life Mama O!!!” which is the perfect example of the loving nature the media smiling vise is to Oprah Winfrey.
Oprah’s fans shared joyous and nostalgic memories of their past with the summer that was filled with so many memories. In one case, a user recalled the 90s and said, “Summer in the 90’s is spending it with my cousins! We danced, talked and laughed all summer long!” along with heart and applauding emojis. It is a perfect example of Oprah’s post positivity and the community she has created.
Expressing how the video served as the much-needed pick me up, one user said “I wanted to scream… not sing/dance and then I saw this. Thank you!!! We needed this on platform 7.” The user was stranded on a platform due to a “train mechanical issues.” It shows that aside from entertaining her viewers, Oprah’s content serves as a pick me up in annoying real-world situations.
Reflecting on one’s life was also prompted by the video. One or two users mentioned. “Absolutely live your best life and sing your heart out” and “Love this. Live your BEST LIFE.” Another one was mentioned when she said she is “looking forward to Oprah traveling, dancing, going to concerts… it is also fabulous and inspirational! I love seeing the joyful and unbothered spirit of Lady O!” She said in reaction to the video.
By far, the best joke was by a user who said, “Well, @oprah, my invite got lost in the mail. That’s ok. Maybe next year, you’ll invite me. Mom always said God is listening to our heart.” This joke is one of the many instances that show the humor Oprah enjoys with her fans.
Oprah is with her fans as she is going to concerts and mentions embracing everything. Everyone that has seen her in public has seen her with no cheer. After seeing her, the comments section erupted as people started sharing admiration for her and her dance happiness.
The incredible “I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Who Loves Me)” by Whitney Houston is particularly meaningful because of its selection. The Oprah’s video is of a different genre, but the song perfectly matches the atmosphere of working and sharing happiness because of her long-lasting community. She turns the video into a way to share memories and sentiments with someone along with her close friends.
