Well, that didn’t take long … Michael Sam’s OWN Documentary Postponed Via NYDailyNews Oprah has punted, for now, on a planned documentary series about openly gay NFL draftee Michael Sam. The Oprah Winfrey Network announced Friday it will postpone the untitled documentary, claiming it didn’t want to hurt the fledgling football star’s chances of making it onto the St. Louis Rams. The team drafted Sam, the first openly gay player drafted by the National Football League, last week in a ground-breaking moment for professional sports. Cameramen for the documentary would have followed the former University of Missouri defensive end as he tried to earn a spot on the squad. The show’s air date and the number of episodes were never announced. OWN Network president Erik Logan said postponing the documentary would give “Michael the best opportunity to achieve his dream of making the team.” “OWN is about elevating and empowering people to achieve their best,” he said in a statement. “It’s clear that we, along with the world, recognize the important opportunity that Michael now has in this moment.” We’re sure there are plenty of folks who are more than happy about this recent development.

Oprah Winfrey may have reached a new low by trying to use Lindsay Lohan for ratings, but at least she straight up OWNs her when she starts acting out. Yes, OWNs. See what we did there?! During last night’s installment of Lindsay , viewers saw Lohan refusing to let the production crew into her apartment to film, which Oprah didn’t take kindly to. When she learns that the recovering actress is causing drama, the talk show queen goes to New York to confront her about this recurring behavior: Lindsay Lohan: LINDSAY Reality Show Clips Open Slideshow 1. Oprah to Lindsay Lohan: Cut the Bullshit! Oprah straight up OWNs Lindsay Lohan in this clip. See what we did there? View As List 1. Oprah to Lindsay Lohan: Cut the Bullshit! Oprah straight up OWNs Lindsay Lohan in this clip. See what we did there? 2. Lindsay Lohan: Still Sober? Has Lindsay Lohan maintained her sobriety? We would not wager a ton of money on it. 3. Lindsay Lohan: This is My Last Shot A clip from Oprah’s Lindsay Lohan docu-series, LINDSAY, shows Lohan talking about how this is her last shot. 4.

Lindsay Lohan: Under the Microscope Lindsay Lohan says she’s living under a microscope these days. Hard to argue. 7. Lindsay Lohan Shares Private Thoughts From Rehab Lindsay Lohan shares her private thoughts in OWN’s new reality series LINDSAY. “When you change a schedule, you know what happens. You’re a professional woman,” Winfrey said to Lindsay, who likely has no idea what happens. “And it’s not just for you. You’ve got a whole team of people who are relying on you right now for this particular experience, creating this documentary.” Does LiLo even want to continue this? “No, I want it,” Lindsay Lohan revealed. “It’s just weird to film things that are going on … I’m just not used to it. And I’m learning how to deal with life in a different light than I have before.” “And at the end of the day,” she insists, “my main objective is to maintain my sobriety,” at which point Oprah asked point blank if she still was. “Yes, I have,” Lohan admitted when grilled on whether she has stayed clean. “What about the Adderall?” Oprah asked. “No, nothing,” she said. Better than being off the wagon, but Oprah was still not pleased, telling her “You need to cut the bullsh!t” in a moment we’ve waited years for. Seriously. If anyone needs to hear that, it’s our girl. No mention of the Lindsay Lohan sex list , but maybe that’s coming in a future episode (it’s not). In any case: Can LiLo stay clean? Yes, she’s totally learned her lesson by now! No, she’s in denial, spineless, weak and surrounded by enablers! View Poll »
