FWD: Tommy Hilfiger hates us...
Did you see the recent Oprah Winfrey show on which Tommy Hilfiger was a
guest? Oprah asked Hilfiger if his alleged statements about people of color
were true - he's been accused of saying things such as "If I had known
that African-Americans, Hispanics and Asians would buy my clothes, I would not
have made them so nice," and "I wish those people would not buy my
clothes - they were made for upper-class whites." What did he say when
Oprah asked him if he said these things? He said "Yes." Oprah
immediately asked Hilfiger to leave her show.

clothes. Boycott! Please - pass this message along.
Is this TRUE?
