For Oprah's 40th birthday in 1994, she was surprised on her show by none other than music legends Patti LaBelle and Aretha Franklin. As you can see in the flashback, she was genuinely shocked and overcome with emotion to also be joined by her partner Stedman and close friend Gayle King.
Another surprise was in the works ten years later for Oprah when she was paid special visits by both actor John Travolta and singer Tina Turner on her show for her 50th birthday.
The party continued later that weekend for Oprah, as she was feted with an all-ladies luncheon and an extravagant birthday party that carried on until the wee hours of the morning.
