CHICAGO — They shrieked, they gasped, they cried, they hugged — and that was before Oprah Winfrey’s studio audience got a trip to Australia.
Winfrey kicked off her 25th and final season of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on Monday with promised surprises. “Maybe I should take you all with me to the other side of the world. We’re going to Australia,” Winfrey shouted to the 300 audience members.
With that, a mock-up of a Quantas Airlines jet rolled onto stage, its door opened and actor John Travolta stepped out dressed as a Quantas pilot.
Winfrey, who opened her 19th season six years ago by giving out cars to everyone in her studio audience, will take this group of loyal fans on an eight-day trip in December. The Associated Press
