World-famous US talk-show host, Oprah Winfrey, has announced that her popular show will come to an end in 2011, after completing its 25th season.

The show has spawned amongst others; the Angel Network (for doing good), The Oprah Book Club (helping authors become best-sellers) and O Magazine.

The Oprah Show has been syndicated in 145 countries, including South Africa. Though, our local broadcaster, the SABC, has the annoying habit of repeating the same old episodes over and over.

Ms Winfrey can certainly afford to step down, in 2009 Forbes estimated her net worth to be $2.7 billion.

I wonder what we will get to watch after 2012 (I’m assuming that we’ll have the show at least until then in SA, because we get the episodes well after the US). Maybe the world will end in 2012. Or maybe SABC3 will continue to run the same old epsisodes every day until 2050.

I just hope they don’t bring back Felicia, is she still on the air?

Thomas Cruise Mapother (IV) was born on 3 July 1962 in Syracuse, New York. He initially wanted to become a priest but when he became an actor it became clear that acting was his calling. He had his debut in Endless Love (1981) and got his big break with a lead role in Risky Business (1983).

Even thou many people think that this Scientology obsessed man has lost the plot, Tom Cruise remains once of Hollywood’s most talented and successful actors. This luck son of a top gun is married to Katie Holmes with who he shares a child.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you have a few of his movies in your DVD collection.
