Check out a sneak peek at Winfrey's gorgeous photoshoot and some words of wisdom from one of the most iconic television personalities of all time. On her decision to start OWN: This is the deal, when you have reached the peak of the mountaintop, which is where I was with the Oprah show, you have absolutely no worries. Id been in the right space at the right time, and Id done that the best way possible for 25 years. But you have two choices: you can come down from the mountain and spend the rest of your days thinking it was so beautiful there or you can create a vision, look upward, see the next mountain, and start the climb all over again. On the initial problem with OWN: What was missing from OWN was me. It required my full-on energy. You know, this past year has been challenging, but its also been one of the greatest experiences for me getting to know me. Wha...

Washington, October 13 ( ANI ): Oprah Winfrey has opened up about her emotional journey to provide education to underprivileged girls in South Africa . The students in Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls lovingly call the 58-year-old "mom Oprah." Even though she doesn't have any biological children of her own, Winfrey said she now understands the trials and tribulations, as well as the joys, of motherhood thanks to the first graduates of her academy. "We're texting all the time," ABC News quoted her as telling 'Nightline' in an exclusive interview. "I was on the phone last night for an hour with one of them," she said.

That's all," Winfrey said. Five years later, the girls are in col...

Source: AP Images Remember the woman who was nearly drooling at the mouth at the mere mention of Barack Obamas name in 2008? Where is she?! Anyone who was around during the last presidential election knows that Oprah Winfrey nearly had Obamas back more than Michelle on the campaign front. Dont act like you dont remember the way she would hold out O-ba-maaaaaaaaaa anytime she was introducing the President or his wife. Michelle even became the first person to share a cover withOprahon the April 2009 issue of O ; and the Commander-in-Chief and first lady also joined Oprah on one of the final episodes of her talk show last November. Im tempted to say the thirst was real. But thats not an accurate term. The support and love for the African American leaders of our nation was real, or at least it appeared to be, because during this election season all weve heard from Oprah are crickets. This isnt a new observation. Plenty of people have been waiting for Oprah to pop up somewhere along the l...
