Oprah Winfrey, Whoopi Among Celebs Named Disney Legends




Several big names in entertainment were hailed as Disney Legends as part of the Disney fan convention D23 on Friday.
   The event, which happens every two years, saw Star Wars’ Mark Hamill, the late Carrie Fisher, actress Whoopi Goldberg, the former Marvel chairman Stan Lee and actress and TV host Oprah Winfrey got honored.
On the press line, Hamill spoke about how his Star Wars co-star would have reacted to getting the award and how he hoped her presence in the final of the new trilogy would be treated after Fisher died in December 2016.
American media proprietor Oprah Winfrey said “What have I done to be a legend that is the first question. Legend is such a profound, dramatic and dynamic title to hold in the world, so I was thinking, what have I done to be a legend? And then I thought, ok, the Oprah show was legendary so I can accept it in the name of the Oprah show.”
