The Internet Can't Get Enough Of A TV Cameraman Shading Some Poor Woman When Oprah Made A Comment About Childless Cat Ladies At The DNC

As someone who has witnessed the rollercoaster ride that is American politics over the past few decades, I must say, the latest viral moment from the 2024 Democratic National Convention has me both amused and slightly saddened. The cameraman’s sudden cut to Teresa Woorman during Oprah‘s speech, in response to her mention of “childless cat ladies,” was a masterclass in timing that had the internet buzzing with reactions.

During the 2024 broadcast of the Democratic National Convention, there’s been no shortage of buzzworthy moments. For example, when Lil Jon performed “Turn Down For What,” it sparked conversation online. Now, people are discussing the cameraman who unexpectedly focused on a random woman after Oprah Winfrey mentioned cat-loving women without children.

During her address at the DNC, Oprah emphasized during her speech that in the event of a burning house, we wouldn’t consider factors such as race, religion, sexuality or political beliefs when attempting to help. She further illustrated this point by stating, as depicted in the CBS News video linked below, that if the home belonged to a cat-owning woman without children, they would still make efforts to rescue the feline as well.

Significantly, when she uttered “childless cat lady,” the scene shifted to an audience member named Teresa Woorman at random. It’s puzzling why this change occurred, but the internet is abuzz with opinions on the matter, as illustrated by this viral response from @SpencerAlthouse on platform X:

In 2021, I recall hearing some remarks from Donald Trump’s former vice presidential nominee, JD Vance, on Fox News (as reported by NBC News). He suggested that politicians like Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who don’t have children, were part of a group he referred to as “childless cat ladies.” He further implied that these individuals, without the responsibility of raising a family, are shaping the Democratic Party in a way that may not be favorable for those with children.

In the comments section of the widely-shared video featuring Oprah, numerous individuals expressed their opinions regarding the unidentified woman depicted in the clip. A significant number drew comparisons to Beyoncé, posting remarks such as these:

Others empathized with her due to the camera’s selection, as evidenced by their sympathetic comments.

  • Omg I was thinking the same thing. And even the way the poor girl turns around –@nickelgeetweets
  • Ok cuz I was like???? Why tho 😭😂😂😂😂 –@ladidaix
  • I did the same thing! Like why’d yall cut to her like thaaaat?!?! 😂🙃 –@IPProfEvans
  • Randomly drafting someone to be the face of childless cat ladies is wicked work –@slimerothstein

In the video you saw earlier, the woman depicted is Teresa Woorman, a representative from District 16 in Maryland. As previously stated, this information was reported by The Guardian. In response to the viral incident, instead of avoiding it, she embraced it and wrote about it on platform X.

100% agree with you there! I can’t stand J.D. Vance, but I’m all for Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz! Though I don’t have kids myself, I do hope that won’t always be the case. And guess what? Just last week, I was sworn into the Maryland House of Delegates, and during my speech, I proudly declared myself a cat lady! Seems like I’m in great company with Taylor Swift and Oprah too! Let’s keep that blue wave going! 💙💪🏼🐱 #VoteBlue

Although several people empathized with Woorman, it was evident that she found the scenario amusing, marking yet another widely-shared incident stemming from the Democratic National Convention (DNC).

It’s rather disappointing that Saturday Night Live isn’t airing at the moment. With a Peacock subscription, you could be enjoying its sketch comedy, which would surely find humor in our current situation. Unfortunately, the series along with its iconic presidential impersonations and Maya Rudolph’s Kamala Harris impression won’t return until September 28, so we’ll have already passed the DNC by then.

It’s clear from the current presidential race that we must brace ourselves for the unforeseen. We’ve seen numerous surprising events, and there’s no doubt that more are on the horizon.
