Oprah Winfrey may have recently dubbed Beyoncé the "preeminent mistress of the universe," but did you guys know that on top of that, the superstar is also the Queen of the Leafmen warriors, guardians of good who protect the forest - and nature, in general - from the nefarious Boggans creatures?!

If you've been keeping up with us, you did!

As we previously reported, the iconic diva - or at least her voice - has returned to the world of feature films in the upcoming animated flick Epic, in which she stars as Queen Tara, a Mother Nature-like being attempting to save her people - with the help of Amanda Seyfried, Josh Hutcherson, Colin Farrell, Pitbull and Steven Tyler - from Django Unchained's Christopher Waltz!

Yeesh! Even when he's CGI, he's still doing the villain thing, huh? LOLz!

Ch-ch-check out the theatrical trailer (above)!

Yeah! Pretty much just seems like Ferngully all over again, huh?

Except instead of Robin Williams as a bat, we've got Aziz Ansari as a slug!

But hey! We LOVED that movie when we were little, so hopefully this one can elicit the same kind of natural magic and wonder of nature that made the 1992 animation so special!

What do U think?? Will U check out Epic??

It's been 18 years since Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere divorced after four years of marriage.

But, now, the supermodel and mother of two is opening up about their relationship and what role their huge age difference played on their eventual separation.

And of course, who better to talk about it than to Oprah??

On OWN's Oprah's Master Class, Cindy opens up about being only 22 when she married 37-year-old Gere back in 1991, saying:

"I think I was more willing at 22 to be, like, 'Okay, I'll follow,' but then you start going, 'Well, I don't want to just follow — I want to lead sometimes and I want to walk side by side sometimes.'"

She has since moved on and started a whole new life with restaurateur Rande Gerber and their two children, but we'll never forget the original superstar couple of the '90s! They were the Brangelina of their day!

Watch what else Cindy has to say about her marriage to Gere (above)!

Oprah Winfrey is one of the most successful people on the planet, so it is no surprise that one of the most esteemed universities in the country—Harvard University— invited the fa-bu-lous O to speak to the graduating class of smarty pants this year!

It was announced this morning that the talk show host, entreprenuer, entertainer, and philanthropist will be Harvard's principal speaker at the Ivy league's 362nd commencement ceremony on May 30 during "afternoon exercises."

Along with the announcement on the Harvard Gazette's website, President Drew Faust wrote:

This was probably the best idea.

Lance Armstrong had plans to be interviewed under oath by the US Anti-Doping Agency in hopes to clean up the insanity behind how he doped his way to stardom, and to try to not get banned from cycling forever.

But after meeting his deadline today to let the USADA know if he was gonna see them — Armstrong decided that he didn't want to be interviewed.
