Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Oprah Winfrey BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Oprah Winfrey has had quite the eventful few days as we head into the second week of December 2025. The media mogul arrived in Sydney on Monday, December 1st, touching down via private jet ahead of her highly anticipated return to Australia after a decade away. She appeared in excellent spirits at the airport, smiling and waving at fans eagerly awaiting her arrival. According to multiple entertainment outlets, Oprah seems thrilled to reconnect with Australian audiences, having stated before her arrival that the energy and warmth she felt from audiences during her last visit in 2010 stayed with her all these years.
Her In Conversation tour kicks off this Thursday, December 4th, at the TikTok Entertainment Centre in Sydney, marking the beginning of what's shaping up to be one of the biggest celebrity speaking events of the year. The intimate live conversations will be hosted by Australian journalist Melissa Doyle and will take Oprah through Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Melbourne before wrapping up with a New Zealand date. Ticket prices start around 109 dollars, with premium experiences commanding significantly higher prices as demand has been exceptionally strong.
In her recent conversations with Australian media, Oprah has emphasized that she's sharing stories about how life continues to open doors and offer wisdom as she's gotten older. She spoke about planting trees whose shade she'll never experience, a poetic reflection on legacy and passing knowledge to others. The 71-year-old, who turns 72 on January 29th, appears energized and ready for the tour despite some recent social media backlash. Earlier this week, Instagram users criticized Oprah for posting a video about her Thanksgiving leftovers, with some calling her out for perceived hypocrisy regarding her health and wellness platform, though she ultimately disabled comments on that post.
On the business side, Oprah's 2025 Favorite Things list continues to drive significant retail activity, with numerous items from her curated selection currently discounted during the Cyber Monday sales event. Products ranging from Apple Watches to luxury robes are seeing major price cuts across retailers including Amazon.
A false claim circulating online about Oprah allegedly being ordered to return 22 million dollars to FEMA has been thoroughly debunked by fact-checkers, who confirmed the story originated as satire and spread through misrepresented trolling posts.
