Accrediting her career to staying true to her self, Oprah has inspired many from her talk show to her many uplifting series on OWN. Now that she has moved on to greater ventures, the entrepreneur still uplifts others via twitter.
“I have a tendency to look at everything from the point of view of: What is going to be meaningful, and uplift people? That can become too stoic and too serious,” she says. Oprah plans to take her talents on the road for a speaking tour. Lets take a look at celebrities who should join her.
She may condone adultery as her fictional alter ego but the Kerry Washington is far from that. If she wasn’t on TV turning fans into Gladiators, she would be a great motivational and political speaker. She was very open about her stance on Obama and joined his campaign speaking in support of him at many occasions across the country. And how can we forget she just recently spoke at her Alma Mater, George Washington University.
Meagan Good
She remains under the Hollywood’s microscope for her choice in wardrobe because of her marriage to pastor Devon Franklin. However the Think Like a Man 2 actress stands by her choices and her marriage, in which we hold her to high regards. We think she would be a great speaker on self-worth, image and celibacy.
Gabby Douglas
Competing in the Olympics is pressure enough, but having your own race turn your historic feats into a mockery is nearly impossible to handle. However, Gabby has gracefully held her own and we think she would be a great speaker on self-esteem.
At one point Gabrielle Union was Hollywood’s bully. The outside world thought she was amazing but her peers hated her. She has since turned her ways and speaks positively on women and bullying.
For Better or Worse’s actress Tasha Smith is one tough cookie. She’s vocal, straight-forwarded, and very honest on her intentions and thoughts. She will tell you she’s no angel but she understands her purpose. After hearing her life story she would be a great speaker on seconds chances and confidence.

Jada Pinkett Smith
Jada Pinkett is a woman of many colors. The actress loves her step-son unconditionally and would be a great speaker on blended families.
The new mother again openly spreads love to her fans and her family on her IG page. Mrs. Brown is known for speaking highly of her husband, Shannon, and her ex Rocko and not letting her home issues surface on social networks. She would be a great speaker on uplifting black men and keeping your business private.
