THE RULES:

I (moi) will post a one of the following: A movie quote, a celebrity trivia question or a mystery celebrity sighting. Email your responses to gossip@thriftyboutique.com The first correct answer is the winner & will receive an email notification, as well as celebrity red-carpet treatment with mention in the Gossip blog & Thrifty Boutique's fab blog. Good luck hotties!

THE GAME:

Which "oh-so-poor" celebrity recently said the following?

WINNER: Vanna P. from CA. Congratulations!!!
ANSWER: From EOnline: --Oprah Winfrey in Us Weekly. But never sure is a long time. Wasn't Oprah poor once? Poverty, as some of us may recall, requires making many decisions based upon money, or the lack thereof. And speaking of cash, Us notes elsewhere in the mag that Oprah just signed a book deal worth more than $12 million. It's a diet book, and she's clearly an expert, having broken every diet there is. So, the decision to do the book wasn't at all motivated by hard cash.
