Some physical trainers, Unicus Performance Training, are suing Oprah Winfrey and her Harpo, Inc. for firing and not paying for the workout plan they were developing for the company. Oprah and co. fired Unicus for breach of contract after Unicus sent out a mass email promoting their appearance on Oprah's radio show. Turns out, they were not allowed to do that according to a confidentiality agreement they signed. TMZ got a copy of the contract and it states that Unicus was not supposed to "use HARPO's name, Oprah.com's name or Ms. Winfrey's name" for any promotional or advertising use AT ALL!! Sounds like Oprah's got a pretty good case to me. DUH! Who beats Oprah?
