OPRAH RELEASE AN EMOTIONAL STATEMENT ABOUT HER MENTOR MAYA ANGELOU DEATH

Oprah Winfrey is mourning the loss of Maya Angelou, who was a mentor, a friend, and a mother figure to her. OWN Network, For more than three decades, she has given life advice, a shoulder to cry on, and brand new cars to complete strangers, before a devoted audience of millions who revere her as something of an oracle. But when Oprah Winfrey needed advice herself, she turned to her longtime mentor and friend Maya Angelou, who died on Wednesday at age 86.

Angelou had a close relationship with Winfrey, who said ... "What stands out to me most about Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it’s how she lived her life.  

And her words are revealing that pain as she has released an emotional and beautiful statement on the loss:

"I've been blessed to have Maya Angelou as my mentor, mother/sister, and friend since my 20’s. She was there for me always, guiding me through some of the most important years of my life. The world knows her as a poet but at the heart of her, she was a teacher. ‘When you learn, teach. When you get, give’ is one of my best lessons from her.'

She won three Grammys, spoke six languages and was the second poet in history to recite a poem at a presidential inauguration. But what stands out to me most about Maya Angelou is not what she has done or written or spoken, it’s how she lived her life. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace. I loved her and I know she loved me. I will profoundly miss her. She will always be the rainbow in my clouds.

RIP MAYA...YOU WILL ME MISSED! 

DONE DEAL....APPLE BUYS DR. DRE’S BEATS FOR $3 BILLION

Apple is acquiring the companies for a total of $3 billion, consisting of $2.6 billion in cash and $400 million in Apple stock.

It’s official. Nearly three weeks after initial reports, Apple has agreed to acquire Beats Electronics and Beats Music, founded in 2008 by Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine.

The deal, which is expected to close before the end of September, is the most expensive acquisition in Apple’s 38-year history, and includes the subscription streaming music service Beats Music, and Beats Electronics, maker of Beats headphones, speakers, and audio software.

As part of the acquisition, Dre and Iovine will both become key executives in Apple’s music divisions.

“We have known these guys forever,” Apple CEO Tim Cook told the AP. “We’ve dated, we’ve gone steady and now we are getting married. This relationship started a decade ago, so we know there is an incredible cultural fit. These two guys have a very rare set of skills. It’s like finding a particular grain of sand on the beach. It’s that rare.”

Dr. Dre was seen celebrating the news earlier this month in a video posted online.

“The first billionaire in hip-hop right here from the motherfu**ing West Coast,” declared Dre.

According to Forbes, the deal would bump Dre’s net worth to around $800 million. While not quite enough to land on the Forbes 400, it would easily make him hip-hop’s wealthiest mogul, topping current champ Diddy by $100 million.
