Lance Armstrong to Open Up About Doping Scandal on Oprah’s Next Chapter

Truth rating: 10

Lance Armstrong will appear on “Oprah’s Next Chapter” later this month, marking his first in-depth interview since he was stripped of his cycling wins last fall.

The former Tour de France champion is expected to “address the alleged doping scandal, years of accusations of cheating, and charges of lying about the use of performance-enhancing drugs throughout his storied cycling career,” says OWN.

In October, Armstrong was officially stripped of his seven Tour de France titles after the United States Anti-Doping Agency’s decision to bar the athlete from competitive cycling for life.

That came after the athelete’s own decision in August to no longer fight the doping charges that have dogged him for years.

The special 90-minute edition of “Next Chapter,” which will be taped at the disgraced cyclist’s Austin home, will air on January 17.

    he’ll be playing the victim, he’s had years to admit to his crimes, only once everyone rats him out is he forced to admit it. He could just apologise on a blog but instead will play the victim on tv.

    Oprah … Good Lord. And immediately after this he will open a vein, drop to his knees and beg forgiveness from Harpo Productions. I’m sick to death of this Lance Armstrong “investigation.” Apparently they couldn’t reward his finishes to the other cyclists either because there was strong evidence they were doping as well. Sounds like an endemic issue in cycling. Either way, I could care less. I give the man props for coming back from cancer and being in the shape he’s in, natural or not. But I’m sure Oprah will get to the bottom of this “scandal.” If not, she can tag out and bring in the B team of Barbara Walters who will be happy to sit with Wance and discuss his peccadilloes and feign outrage just as well as Oprah can … can’t wait to watch. Not.

    This will be an interesting tell-all interview with Armstrong so I can’t wait to watch. It will be good to hear his side of the story on the doping allegations. My DISH coworker first told me about his interview so I knew I wouldn’t be missing it. I’ll be recording this on my DISH Hopper. This way, my roommates and I will be able to record up to six shows that are on during primetime. This prevents a lot of house hold arguments on what to watch.
