Could you imagine a world without Oprah Winfrey? Although the talk show maven has one of the best rags to riches stories ever, there was a time when things in Winfrey’s world seemed bleak. A then 14-year-old pregnant Winfrey attempted suicide by drinking a bottle of laundry detergent. The media mogul blames the attempt on the fact that she was so scared of coming home to her father pregnant. Winfrey’s baby died shortly after birth.
