Details of Oprah Winfrey's Aussie shows revealed as US talk show host returns after 15 years for four-date live national tour

Oprah Winfrey is set to return to Australia in December for the first time in 15 years, for a national speaking tour. The US talk show titan, 71, will bring her Oprah In Conversation show to four states as she marks her first visit Down Under since 2010. The presenter will begin her Australian tour at Sydney's ICC Theatre on December 4, before heading to the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on December 6. She will then visit Brisbane 's Entertainment Centre on December 8 and end her tour in Melbourne at the Plenary Theatre on December 11. Presale tickets go on sale on Wednesday via while general tickets will be released on August 12. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I have always enjoyed sitting down for real, honest, enlightening conversations, and this experience is all about that,' Oprah said. 'The energy, warmth, and spirit I feel in Australia and New Zealand have stayed with me, and returning will be an opportunity to reconnect, reflect, and be reinspired together. 'I look forward to sharing stories, ideas, and meaningful connection about what's possible in our lives moving forward.' Oprah is also expected to enjoy a private holiday during her time in the country. Oprah's 2010 appearance at the Sydney Opera House had been dramatic, with thousands of people lining nearby streets and filling the forecourt of the iconic harbourside building. Some fans had waited all night for a glimpse of the world's most famous talk show host. It was a cultural moment that saw her film four episodes of The Oprah Winfrey Show at the Sydney Opera House, which was temporarily rebranded the 'Oprah House'. That tour brought 300 ecstatic American fans with her and featured headline-grabbing moments, including surprise giveaways, a $250,000 donation to a cancer patient, and Hugh Jackman's headline-making zip-line mishap during a live taping. The trip, which cost Australian taxpayers $5 million, drew criticism at the time — but Oprah maintained it was a worthwhile investment in tourism. The episodes eventually aired in 145 countries, giving global exposure to local landmarks. In another of her surprise splashes of gifts, she gave a cheque worth over $100,000 to a Sydney couple after watching an emotional video in which the husband said he was battling cancer. She also gave everyone in the audience a silver necklace with an 'O' pendant. Oprah rose to fame as actor in Steven Spielberg's 1985 hit film The Color Purple. She later transitioned to television, launching a long and celebrated career as a talk show host.

Lions star Bundee Aki reveals he missed arrival of his daughter during Australia tour after wife gave birth in a CAR

Aki admitted he played poorly in the defeat to Australia YOU'RE KIDDING Lions star Bundee Aki reveals he missed arrival of his daughter during Australia tour after wife gave birth in a CAR Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) BUNDEE AKI has revealed he became a dad again during the Lions' series win in Australia — with his wife giving birth in a car. The Irish centre held his hands up on his shocker in Sydney on Saturday in a 22-12 defeat, which saw the tourists miss the chance of a Wallaby whitewash. 3 Bundee Aki's wife has given birth to a daughter Credit: Instagram 3 Aki now has five children Credit: Instagram After the Lions failed to clinch a series clean sweep, Aki then announced he had become a father for the fifth time two weeks ago. The 35-year-old has yet to meet new daughter Aine, who was born in the build-up to the opening Test win in Brisbane. Wife Kayla was in New Zealand with family when she got in touch to say she was ready to give birth before he helped the Lions to a 27-19 triumph. Aki recalled: 'Credit to my wife. She's a powerful woman. I was in the hotel in Brisbane and I knew we were overdue.

'Five minutes later, her waters broke. I was like, 'Are you almost there?' This is like 40 minutes away from the hospital, so I said, 'You'll be all right, Mum is there'. 'Ten minutes later, she video calls me and I was like, 'S**t, what's going on?' I saw a baby on the video call, so she had it in the car. 'They're both healthy. I knew it was good juju and we were going to have a good day.'

But their old man admitted he put in nothing close to an A-star performance in Sydney as the Lions were mauled in a monsoon. The game was suspended after half-time for 38 minutes due to lightning, with the Aussies 8-0 up through Dylan Pietsch's try and a penalty. Finn Russell was spotted in the dressing room flicking through his phone and Aki had his feet up on a bean bag before play resumed. But the Wallabies struck twice after the delay to get the victory. Aki had his worst game in an international shirt but fronted up. He said: 'I wasn't great. It was a poor game but you have those days and you have to live with it. 'We won the series and that's all we came for. 'Now, I want to enjoy my break. I haven't seen my family for eight weeks. I have a newborn child I haven't met yet.' Australia got it over the line thanks to a turbo-charged display from lock Will Skelton, who was on the wind-up all match, and second-half tries from Max Jorgensen and Tate McDermott. Jac Morgan and Will Stuart crossed to give the Lions some consolation — but Skelton had shown the Aussies the way. Wallabies scrum-half Nic White said: 'For once, someone stood up to them.'

Sydney Sweeney inundated with messages for a date from Man Utd, Liverpool & Arsenal aces after split from fiance

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) NEWLY-single Sydney Sweeney is inundated with messages from Premier League stars offering to fly her to Europe for a date. The Euphoria star, 27, has been propositioned by football players from Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal.

Sydney split from her ex- fiance, producer Jonathan Davino, earlier this year. They had dated since 2018 and got engaged in 2022. However, she is now said to be casually dating in America. A source said: 'Her Instagram DMs are packed with messages from famous men trying to get in contact with her. 'It's mostly guys playing for teams like Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal. 'They offer her trips to Europe to see them and take her on a date, but she's not the kind of person who does that. 'Some of them are very insistent and have even tried to find her address to send her flowers, but she always refuses. 'I'd say more than 100 people, from celebs to millionaires or very rich people from the Middle East and Asia, contact her every month.' Pals are now joking to the White Lotus actress that she is 'the most wanted woman in America since Madonna'. While Sydney doesn't mind polite messages, the source said she is quick to call out those who misbehave. They added: 'The ones who cross the line of respect are quickly blocked. 'Not long ago, an American actor who had recently divorced approached her to take her on a date. 'She declined and he started being very rude, so she told him to stop talking to her and to show some respect to her and all women.' In May, Sydney said of her new single life: 'I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I'm loving it.' Sydney and Jonathan are said to have been 'rocky for some time' before calling it quits. 3 The source said Sydney is quick to call out those who misbehave Credit: Getty Her busy work schedule was reportedly partly to blame. Sydney is an executive producer and the leading role in her upcoming film The Housemaid. Last month, her campaign for clothing brand American Eagle was hailed as the 'end of woke'. Killjoys accused it of racism for its 'good jeans' line — saying it promoted white supremacy. Unlock even more award-winning articles as The Sun launches brand new membership programme - Sun Club.
