Oprah Winfrey has kicked Russell Simmons to the curb -- by scrubbing his name and thoughts from her best-selling book.
The Wisdom of Sundays, first published last October, collects excerpts from conversations between Oprah and guests of her OWN network series “Super Soul Sunday.” According to the New York Times, Oprah and her publisher, Flatiron Books, came to a mutual decision to remove all mention of Simmons from future printings, starting with the one that's slated to drop this month.
At least 12 women have come forward to accuse Simmons of sexual abuse, and the New York Police Department has revealed publicly that it is “reviewing information” on the matter. The mogul has denied all charges.
