"I heard that Taraji is upset because she was being asked to do a rental car, I personally called Toby Emmerich who was at the time head of Warner Brothers then he said that means we have to do cars for everybody, and I said yes we do cars for everybody.

"And if it's necessary I will pay for the cars myself because we don't want you to do that. That was one thing, trailers were another thing, food was another thing, and everything got handled."

Fans weigh in on Oprah's response

As expected, social media users shared mixed reactions to the media mogul's comments.
