Oprah To Inauguration, She Tells Access Hollywood

Oprah Winfrey is headed to Washington for inauguration, she tells Access Hollywood:

The media mogul (and staunch Barack Obama supporter) will be hosting "The Oprah Winfrey Show" from Washington, D.C. during the week of the presidential inauguration, she revealed to Access Hollywood exclusively at an Essence Magazine event in New York on Tuesday night.

"I'm going to break that right here; that's where I'm going to be," Oprah told Access. "See you there . . . that's the place to be."

She also confirmed to Access that she has rented out the Opera House at the Kennedy Center to film the show.

Other celebrities expected to attend inauguration include Bruce Springsteen, Will.i.am, Anne Hathaway, Spike Lee, Tim Robbins, Maggie Gyllenhaal and many other prominent Obama supporters.

Oprah won Obama both Iowa and South Carolina. Think of what would have happened if Oprah had endorsed Hillary Clinton, Obama would have been DOA.

NOT.

You'd love to re-script history, wouldn't you? Oprah did not win the election for Obama. Obama and his brilliant team won.

Not true. Two brilliant ecomonists proved that Oprah single-handedly delivered over one million votes in the razor close primary. Had it not been for Oprah he would have lost the nomination:
