Sayonara, Ms. Winfrey.
Oprah Winfrey taped her finale show yesterday in front of an amazing 13,000 (or 20,000 depending on who's telling you're listening to) fans that were packed into Chicago's United Center.
Weird to think I was only 11 when she started her show.
The four-hour taping included tons of stars from Maria Shriver, Will Smith, Maya Angelou, and Tom Cruise to musical guests such as Beyonce and The Black Eyed Peas. Also in on the fun was Rascal Flatts who performed for the huge crowd. Yes, that's them on stage in the picture above.
Hey, not everyone gets the premium seating.
You can watch the farewell episode when it airs in two parts on May 24th and 25th.
Update: Here's a backstage photo for you to feast your eyes on.

would have loved to have been there for that taping! Everyone expected that she would be giving away something incredible...but I heard the audience each got a tree planted in their name or something like that, I would have felt jipped, not gonna lie, lol.
