Exclusive Details

Oprah Winfrey's been cast to play Richard Pryor's grandmother -- a cruel and abusive lady pimp -- in the upcoming biopic directed by O's pal Lee Daniels.

Pryor's widow, Jennifer, tells TMZ ... Oprah got hold of the script, and was desperate to play Marie Carter -- the woman who raised Pryor in her brothel in Peoria, Illinois ... and who was known to beat him. As we told you ... Mike Epps scored the Pryor role.

We're told Oprah really wanted to play Grandma Carter because she's anxious to show her gritty side -- after her 'Butler' performance -- and let's face it ... there's not much grittier than an abusive grandma running a whorehouse while raising a kid.

were you previously implying that Dr.Dre was out partying after his son had committed suicide? Your post about him partying was right after someone said he had been out of the spotlight due to his son committing suicide which was a few years back I was simply stating the Apple venture was more recent and thats why he would have been out partying to celebrate that occasion and it may have been looked at as rude by his new business partners if he didn't do a little celebrating :D

No it wasn't that. His son died years ago. I just meant he hasn't been in hiding recently though.

Oprah Great White Truffle Hunter 10/16/2014 12:02 AM PDT BY TMZ STAFF

TMZ TV
Oprah flew all the way to Italy to search for the world’s most expensive, and perhaps over hyped fungus -- yes, we're talking white truffles! Go ahead and lose your mind, everyone.

Important side issue: What the hell are white truffles?

If you don't know (you're not alone) ... watch this for a quick lesson -- and also to see Oprah’s ***.
