Inauguration Week: Oprah Goes to Washington!

December 4, 2008

Oprah Winfrey plans to go to Washington, DC for the inauguration of Barack Obama, and she's bringing her audience, which is spread out across places like Saudi Arabia and another 140 countries!

During inauguration week Oprah will tape her show at the Kennedy Center's Opera House, also the location of Oprah's rumored star-studded inauguration night party. I guess we can start calling it the Kennedy Center's Oprah House.

Since Oprah really, really wanted Obama to win, you know she'll throw a celebratory bash to remember! Are you one of the 1.5 million people that plan on being in DC with Oprah for the inauguration?

runningesq, I've seen prices between $2,500-$5,000 so far, depending on location and number of bedrooms.

That party is going to be the hottest ticket in the world. If you get an invite to Oprah's party... You must be at the top of the A-list.

Oprah could afford to sponsor 5 inaugurations. I heard on NPR I think that one hotel is offereing a presidential package that costs like $250K a night or something ridiculous. I will watch from the comfort of my own couch.

Agreed, Steph. Unless, like LaurenG22 said, she sponsors it--hell, she could afford to ;)

I wish Oprah would lay low during the Inauguration - it's about Obama and the nation, not her.
