Who would've of thought the song 'HAPPY' would make Pharrell cry?

I guess Oprah is the new Barbra Walters. She gets famous people to cry. Sunday night on 'Oprah Prime', she brought Pharrell Williams to tears.

In the interview, Oprah and Pharrell talk about how the song 'Happy' was on the Despicable 2 soundtrack and it got no air play at all! It got "Nothing" Pharrell said in the interview.

Then on November 1st, 2013 he uploaded the video to YouTube and "BOOM!" The world went crazy, and it no longer was his song.

Pharrell's fans took off with it, making their own videos of the song.
