Today, Mike Tyson was the latest troubled/redeemed celebrity to sit down with Oprah Winfrey, and true to form, Oprah got her buzzworthy quote:
Even On Oprah’s Couch, Mike Tyson’s Default Mode is Rage
↵↵“I don’t want to know,” he says.
↵Oprah asks, “You don’t want to know?”
↵Yes, says Mike, “Because if I know, then there might be a blame for it. And if there’s somebody to blame for it, there will be a problem.”
↵↵Tyson later called this reaction “his rage” and said he is “happy to have the tools [...] to not go in that direction.” And he should be. If this were 10 years ago, and Tyson underwent this sort of devastating personal tragedy, Lord knows how he would have reacted. It would have been bad. It’s a testament to Tyson’s personal development that this* is the first we’ve heard of him since his daughter passed away.
↵(*Excepting this year’s documentary, of course, but you know what I mean.)
