Oprah hails Legends

May 17, 2005





SANTA BARBARA, Calif. -- Oprah Winfrey rolled out the carpet for a lavish tribute to pioneering black women, then strolled it herself in a red Vera Wang ball gown. Guests including Usher, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were on hand for the Legends Ball on Saturday night.

The talk-show host joked with friends and praised the 25 honorees, including Coretta Scott King, Diana Ross, Maya Angelou and Cicely Tyson. ''These are women who, when I was growing up, made a difference for me,'' Winfrey told reporters. ''The first time I saw Diana Ross and the Supremes on 'The Ed Sullivan Show,' it changed my life.''
