Oprah Reveals Her Famous "Favorite Things" List

It's that time of the year again! It's time for Oprah's famous 2013 "Favorite Things" list!

The famous talk show host, turned mogul, splashes the December issue of O, the Oprah Magazine, which is where the list is featured. She poses on the cover stunning readers in a red White by Vera Wang dress sold exclusively for David's Bridal. For an added laugh, Oprah shares the cover with her fave comedian Jimmy Kimmel, who is dressed as an elf. The beautiful red gown weighs a whopping 25 lbs. and took 10 people to make with a total of 100 hours of work.

Oprah called the list, "The Ultimate, ultimate list of my favorite things."

While the list features a mixture of hi-low buys including, a $500 Truffle Risotta gift box curated by Per Se chef Thomas Keller, all the way to Modern House Red Wine bottles sold at Target for $13, Oprah doesn't think it's the price tag that matters the most when gifting this holiday season. "It's not about spending tons of money. It's not about buying the biggest gift. Generosity is about using whatever you have to give a gift that means something," states the former Queen of daytime.

Check out the complete list here: Oprah's Favorite Things 2013.

What are YOUR favorite things on Oprah's list this year?

Oprah Wants To Chit-Chat With Paula Deen

Paula Deen all smiles on a better day for the chef.

When Oprah calls, you better answer!

Oprah is putting the word out that she wants a word with the controversial, celebrity chef, Paula Deen. The former talk show Queen said in a recent interview on Monday, that she is game to let Paula Deen tell her story...when she is good and ready emotionally. "I would love to when she is ready to sit down and have a conversation about what all of this has meant to her and how it's sort of settled with her," stated "The Butler" actress at a Los Angeles premiere of her new film. She went on to say, "I think Paula Deen was sort of used as a symbol, but I think lots of people use the word inappropriately all the time."

Until now, Oprah has not been very vocal about Deen's accusations, as the two have publicly had a very connected friendship. 

Deen found herself in the heart of turmoil back in June when a lawsuit was launched against her by former employee at her Georgia restaurant accusing Deen of hurling racial slurs, which Deen admitted to. While she did offer a public apology, endorsers quickly yanked her television and endorsement gigs. 

"I just really want to know what happened," says Winfrey. And who else can get to the bottom of the matter, than Ms. Winfrey herself!

Lindsay Lohan's $2 Million Buck Pay Day!

With the movie offers few and far in between, we know this must have Ms. Lohan grinning from ear to ear!

According to TMZ.com, after 4 months of negotiating, talk show queen Oprah's OWN network have finally come to a financial agreement with Lindsay Lohan to score an interview about the troubled teen star's life. It is reported that OWN has shelled out a whopping $2 Million dollars to have Lohan spill her heart out about her struggles and rehab stints in a an 8-part docu-series.

Apparently the series will chronicle Lohan's tumultuous childhood, personal battle with drugs, legal woes, and her (not-so) acting career. This offer comes to Lohan as one of the biggest offers she's seen since Playboy, who reportedly paid up $1 Million to her.

While the "Mean Girls" star has stayed mum on the offer, mother Dina was sure to add her two cents in stating to E! News, "Oh, it's fantastic. If anyone is going to help mentor you, it's going to be Oprah."

In terms of Lindsay's progress, Dina added that, "She's happy, she's healthy and she's amazing. She's doing really well."

Once out of rehab, Lindsay will be headed to the big apple to settle in her own (luxurious, we're sure)apartment..compliments of Oprah! Well, not really, but we're sure that nice big pay check will help!'

Will you be tuning in, or are you thoroughly over Lindsay's antics?
