Oprah Mocks ‘Childless Cat Ladies’ Remark & Mindy Kaling Shouts Out Ben Affleck At DNC

Night three of the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 21 brought out many celebrity cameos from Oprah to Mindy Kaling to John Legend and more. Oprah took the stage to deliver a rousing speech endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz in which she also threw a jab at Republican Vice-Presidential nominee J.D. Vance’s now-viral “childless cat ladies” remark from a 2021 interview. Meanwhile, Mindy Kaling served as the celebrity host for the evening, taking center stage a few times including giving a speech about her friendship with the Vice President and a moment where she shouted out fellow Massachusettsan Ben Affleck amid his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. “I love you Massachusetts! Everyone is always hating on us, but they just don’t get it. Go Sox! Go Jayson Tatum! Ben Affleck… hang in there! Dunkin’ Donuts is the best coffee in the world,” the actress exclaimed. Plus, John Legend performed a ‘Lets Go Crazy’ Prince tribute with Sheila E and Kerry Washington reunited with fellow “Scandal” costar Tony Goldwyn.
