Oprah Winfrey has denied claims that she received a $1 million personal fee from Kamala Harris' presidential campaign, clarifying that the payment was for production costs incurred by her company, Harpo Productions, during the 'Unite for America' event. Winfrey and Harpo have consistently stated that she was not personally compensated, but the funds were to cover expenses like lights, cameras, and crew. Harpo Productions confirmed receiving two $500,000 payments, totaling $1 million, for the live-streamed event, which featured several Hollywood A-listers. These responses came after reports on campaign expenditures, which included significant spending on celebrity endorsements and events. Despite the controversy, Winfrey emphasized her support for Harris was voluntary and based on shared values. The Harris campaign, which ended in substantial debt, faced scrutiny for its lavish spending during the election cycle.
