Oprah at 60: ‘I’m more secure’ than ever / Опре Уинфри – 60: Я чувствую себя увереннее, чем когда-либо




   Well wishes are in order, right?
   Yes, Oprah Winfrey celebrates a milestone today. She's 60, and she's taking it, of course, all in stride.
   – All right. Open your boxes.
   – She won us over on the small screen.
   – Everybody gets a car!
   Dazzled us on the big screen.
   – Everything you are and everything you have because of that butler.
   Has a magazine named after her and her own network. Now Oprah Winfrey is facing her next chapter, the big 6–0.
   – This is a special month. Not only the beginning of a new year but it's the month I turn 60. And what a transformation that is.
   The queen of talk shared her feelings about the milestone with our own Al Roker in august.
   – It's the only age I've ever been that I had to like – the 60s, 60.
   – It's the new 30.
   – I don't think it's the new 30, al.
   But as the big day arrived, Oprah doesn't seem to be sweating 60 writing in her magazine: "I'm more secure in being myself than I've ever been", and posting this pre-birthday workout celebration to her instagram account.
   – I just had the best birthday ever, ride baby, ride!
   – At 60, Oprah is really younger than a lot of 30-year-olds I know. And the reason I say that is because she is the least complacent person I know. She is a searcher and a seeker. And is excited about life as I'm sure she was decades ago.
   It's been a busy few months leading up to the milestone, complete with red carpet, award nominations for her role in "The Butler" along with some award snubs. Even receiving the medal of freedom from president Obama.
   – Oprah's greatest strength has always been her ability to help us discover the best in ourselves.
   But there's also been some moments of candor telling the "hollywood reporter": "If I had kids, my kids would hate me. ... something in my life would have to suffer and it would probably have been them."
   – Because she's not like any 60-year-old we used to think about, she's what the new 60 is. And I think that it will make people really realize that, you know, their best years may be ahead of them.
   And this new phase, Oprah's letting the world in, showcasing her handyman habits via social media and showing everyone what it means to own 60.
   – So, in addition to Oprah, other fabulous women turning 60 this year, Christie Brinkley. And we were talking about the fact that 60 really – how do you define it today compared to in the 1950s and '40s? Men and women look so great. But breaking news, developing news, Oprah has canceled her birthday. Well, reportedly according to E! Our friends over there say she felt the guest list was getting out of control. But i'm thinking, you're Oprah, you are the epitome of control.
   You get to go and you get to go.
   Come on.
   You can't go and you.
