When I searched for Tommy Hilfiger, this is what I came up with. So, I decided to post this here...



Good for Oprah!!!! I'm sure many of you watched the recent taping of The

Oprah Winfrey show where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she

asked him if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true.
Statements like"... if I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jews and

Asians would buy my clothes, I would not have made them so nice. I wish

these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class
white people." His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES". Where after she

immediately asked him to leave her show. My suggestion? Don't buy your next
shirt or Perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. Let's give him what he asked for.

Let's not buy his clothes. Let's put him in a financial state where he

himself will not be able to afford the ridiculous prices he puts on his

clothes.

At the end of the email, it asks that folks boycott Tommy Hilfiger

this story has been around for a while and is considered an urban legend. it is interesting that it is now resurfacing.
