US talk show host Oprah Winfrey has said she was the victim of racism during a recent shopping trip in Switzerland.
The media mogul, who is one of the world’s richest women, told a US television show that a shop assistant in Zurich refused to show her a handbag because it was “too expensive” for her.
“I was in Zurich the other day, in a store whose name I will not mention. I didn’t have my eyelashes on, but I was in full Oprah Winfrey gear. I had my little Donna Karan skirt and my little sandals. But obviously The Oprah Winfrey Show is not shown in Zurich,” she told the Entertainment Tonight programme.
