Oprah’s party takes over Chicago

Oprah Winfrey’s party to celebrate the launch of the new season of her long-running talk show took over a few blocks in Chicago on Tuesday, with some of Oprah’s celebrity pals helping to create extra buzz. Among the singers were Jennifer Hudson (Oprah was spotted dancing and singing along to Jennifer’s hit, Spotlight, from the side of the stage). The Black Eyed Peas, who’ve spent the past five months at the top of the American singles chart and are still riding high, received a rapturous welcome. According to the Chicago Tribune, other singers attending included James Taylor and Rascal Flatts. PHOTO CREDIT: SHOWCLIX.COM
