Oprah wants Internet sensation Ted Williams to join OWN

Oprah Winfrey wants to offer You-Tube sensation Ted Williams a job.

 

The multi-millionaire, who recently kicked off her new network OWN, says she has a position available for the once-homeless man with the deep, refined voice, according to Inside Edition.

Winfrey said she was like millions of others who were "fascinated" with Williams' story

"The reason we're all so fascinated, I think, is because it means you can be homeless on the street, carrying a sign like we've all seen, and this can happen to you," she said at the launch party for the network in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Since a Columbus, Ohio newspaper posted a clip online of Williams demonstrating his voiceover skills as he panhandled on the side of a road, jobs have been pouring in.

First, the Cleveland Cavaliers offered to pay for his living expenses and a two-year contract to announce their games. Then, Kraft snatched him up to tape four new macaroni commercials, which will air throughout the year.

Now, Oprah wants him.

"I would like to see him be part of OWN," Winfrey said. "It would be fantastic to hear him say, 'The Oprah Winfrey Network.'"  icelebz
