Live From New York, It's Oprah Winfrey!!!

And just when we got back to L.A., dangit!

A healthy-looking Oprah was in Central Park on Friday taping a special episode for The Oprah Winfrey Show. Some of her special guests were native New Yorker talk show hosts Regis Philbin and Kelly Ripa, NYC Mayor Bloomberg, and the still curl-cued Mariah Carey!

We’re thinking Mariah is there to promote a perfume, but it doesn’t look like Oprah is giving it her official stamp of approval.

Oh, yeah, and she’s got an album out too!
