Image Credit: Jason LaVeris/FilmMagic.comOn Feb. 24, Oprah‘s audience will have to Scream for David Arquette instead of Michael Vick. Harpo has confirmed to EW that an interview with the actor will air on Feb. 24 instead of one with Michael Vick, who backed out Wednesday for “personal reasons,” according to Harpo. Arquette taped his interview on Thursday, Feb. 17. (Said Vick via his rep in a statement: “After careful consideration, I will need to postpone the taping of the Oprah Winfrey interview scheduled for February 22. I admire and respect Oprah and hope to be able to participate in an interview in the future.”) It’s a good trade-off for Winfrey: Though not as controversial a figure as Vick, Arquette made headlines earlier this year for his split from wife, Courteney Cox, and a subsequent all-too-revealing interview with Howard Stern about his marriage. Arquette’s over-sharing tendencies should bode well for Winfrey’s ratings.

Fair trade
Yup, not bad at all
Fair trade? Are u mental? Vick, for this joke of an actor. The only movie he was good in was Hamlet 2, because he had such a limited role and said maybe 5 words at the most.
But what do I care, I dont watch harpos stupid show anyhow. The only time I liked harpo, was when she got beat up in “the coloe purple”
This is the trade off, No thanks!
Go Vick…stop talking and stay clean. Actions are better than words.
