Oprah’s 60th Birthday: Ellen DeGeneres Gives Her A Giant Sequined Portrait

Ellen gifted the OWN Mogul and woman who has probably seen it all with a giant sequined portrait of herself! She then went on to take credit for the thoughtful and unique gift by joking, “I spent a lot of time on it. Pretty. Each one hand-done. Took me months to do that thing.” Following the big reveal, Ellen then pretended to get on the phone with the big O herself.

According to E!, Oprah had plans to celebrate her milestone birthday in style by throwing a huge black tie event, but he party was canceled because the guest list got out of hand. Instead, it seems like the birthday girl celebrated a little early with friends at a SoulCycle class, according to her Instagram.

We are glad to see that Ellen could still make Oprah’s big day shine with the help of some sequins. However, there is a catch to this great gift. Oprah will have to collect her present in person, because “shipping is going to cost me a fortune,” according to Ellen. Watch the  hilarious video Here!

What do you think HollywoodLifers? Do you love this gift idea?
