CHICAGO, Ill. --
Oprah Winfrey is currently taping “The Oprah Winfrey Show Surprise Spectacular” in Chicago at the United Center and Access Hollywood is on the scene.
Here’s what’s happening as the superstar guests are unveiled!
7:55 PM CDT: Beyonce comes on stage for a hot performance with a stage full of dancers. Oprah is officially in tears! The audience is up on their feet and the place is going wild. Beyonce appears to have about 40 dancers on stage with her. The place is electric. Nobody is thinking they’re in the (Chicago) Bulls’ house tonight. Oprah owns Chicago!
7:54 PM CDT: Dakota Fanning appears on stage looking stunning with large group of pre-teens and teen girls. It’s the Dove self-esteem moment. Dakota is in a fabulous gown. It’s red carpet Oscar-worthy style.
7:40 PM CDT: Madonna appears on stage. She’s wearing a conservative black dress that goes below the knees and a pair of heels. Oprah is seen getting teary eyed from Madonna’s speech. Madonna is recapping a history of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” with global clips.
7:33 PM CDT: Oprah’s main squeeze, Stedman Graham, and her best friend, Gayle King, are sitting in the front row.
7:31 PM CDT: Patti LaBelle comes on stage to sing and the crowd is going crazy! Patti and Josh sing together — “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” — and they bring the audience to their feet. Patti sings in her bare feet!
7:29 PM CDT: Josh Groban is on stage singing!
7:27 PM CDT: Tom Cruise just walked on to “Mission Impossible” theme. Tom said he’s been on show 12 times. “Each time I came to Chicago, I would see a loving friend,” he noted.
7:22 PM CDT: Tom Hanks is the first surprise guest, and his appearance leads to a video recap of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”The video is of ultimate viewers talking about how her shows changed their lives. It is sentimental and heartfelt.
