No one tells O where to go! But then again, Oprah never met the inspiration behind the book and movie The Devil Wears Prada.

Back in 1998, Anna Wintour, the notoriously acid-tongued editor of Vogue Magazine, demanded that the Queen of Talk lose the lard ass if she intended to appear on the cover of the Fashion Bible.

In an unaired segment from Anna’s interview on 60 Minutes last Sunday, CBS correspondent Morley Safer asked the fashionista if she had indeed asked Oprah to lose 20 pounds before appearing on the mag’s cover when she was promoting the film Beloved.

“It was a very gentle suggestion,” Anna replied. “I went to Chicago to visit Oprah, and I suggested that it might be an idea that she lose a little bit of weight before she appeared in the magazine.”

Anna said, “She was a trooper. She totally welcomed the idea. She went on a very stringent diet. It was one of our most successful covers ever.”
