Which Celebrity Would You Start A Business With?

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Which celebrity entrepreneur do you think would make the best business partner: Oprah Winfrey or Kim Kardashian West?

Some might choose Kim K for her self-styled achievements leveraging social media. But according to hundreds of business owners across three continents, Oprah is the best choice.

A survey by software company, Xero, found Oprah was the top pick out of eight famous entrepreneurs. She took 40 percent of the vote.

Gwyneth Paltrow, who owns lifestyle publication, Goop, came in second place. "Shark Tank" judge and business entrepreneur Mark Cuban ranked third.

Kim, somewhat surprisingly, ranked last, with just 3.4 percent.
