@q-girl wrote:. . . if a product that is being presented is an “Oprah’s Favorite Thing” ? That means absolutely nothing to me when I’m deciding on making a purchase. If I like a product, or if I believe the person I buying it for will enjoy it, I don’t really care if Oprah, or any other celebrity likes it or not.
How about you?

Absolutely not!
I will never "buy into" the cult goddess groups, to which a number of my friends in San Diego belong. Everything is always, "Oprah this...Oprah that." These ladies have stopped thinking for themselves - I swear!

Since I don't personally know any celebrities, I haven't judged whether or not I like them. If I do not like their public persona or comments, I will judge the endorsed product on its merits, not the celebrity's. The celebrity may have taken payment for the endorsement and have no personal experience with the item.

I don't buy a product because Rush recommends it, either. I use my own judgment.

I would tend to NOT buy it, if it is one of Oprah's favorites.

But the celebrity makes money on it.
For myself, I guess I consider it a sort of boycott against the celebrity, but I understand not everyone does, that's just me.

Not only that, if it's on Oprah's Favorite List, I probably can't afford it, LOL!

If I like something and want it, I buy it. It matters nothing to me who or if no one endorses it. I would never deny myself something in this type of situation.

I ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT BUY IT!!
