Oprah & Gayle King Not Knowing Gay Slang Words Is Now a Meme
"I've never heard this from any gay person, ever."
Oprah and Gayle King cemented their auntie status by attempting to guess modern day slang words in a new video for O Magazine.
They're both surprisingly in-touch with what the kids are talking about these days, with the two besties successfully defining words like "okurrrr," "shade," and "snack." But both aunties take a major stumble with the term "wig snatch."
Oprah guesses it is "some kind of offensive thing, right?"
"Or it could be that wig is so good, it was snatched?" King guesses.
O Magazine producers define it as "a phrase that became popular thanks to the Black and LGBTQ communities" that is "used to call something wonderful, beautiful, or to express surprise."
Oprah and King are baffled that they've never heard of the word, "and we have lots of gay friends," King proclaims.
Oprah adds, "I've never heard this from any gay person, ever."
Needless to say, gay twitter has already turned the clip into a meme...
