In July of 1992, Oprah Winfrey, a talk show host from Hollywood, put her audience through a social experiment just like the brown and blue-eyed project. Elliott was her guest of the day to help her set up the project and she helped set the whole thing up. Brown-eyed people were given the right to cut in line and were given refreshments while waiting to be seated. Staff were instructed to be extra polite to brown-eyed people. People with blue eyes were made to wear green collars and wait in a crowd for two hours. Once they all took their seats, people started to argue with Jane that they weren’t being treated fairly. Elliott, being the good actor she was, did the same thing that she did with the kids, and argued with just about everyone.
