This week, Oprah Winfrey stepped out for the premiere of OWN‘s new original drama series, Queen Sugar, looking her absolute best in a cold-shouldered little black dress.

She paired the chic ensemble with a pair of peep-toe pumps and statement glasses, but perhaps her best accessory was her confidence!

Speaking to People of her slender new self, the media mogul admitted how her weight loss has changed her relationship dynamic with longtime partner, Stedman Graham.

“I would like him to pick me up and carry me to the pool,” she joked to the publication.

“I’ve lost enough weight he can pick me up and carry me to the pool. I can straddle him without breaking his back!”

Oprah cut a svelte and glamorous figure at the event.

The talkshow icon has been faithfully following the Weight Watchers program for a year after becoming a stockholder and spokesperson for the points program.

Oprah is yet to reveal her total weight loss so far, but in January the 62-year-old divulged that she had lost around 11 kilograms since beginning the regime.

“I don’t feel like I’m on a diet that I’m ever going to go off again,” Oprah, who had previously considered herself to be a “food addict”, said.

“I feel like I’ll be counting points for the rest of my life.”

The philanthropist has made no secret of her appreciation for the program’s point system, which allows her to enjoy bread and alcohol without regret.

Speaking of her cheat food to E! News, she admits “Every now and then, I snack a Cheeto!”

We bet Stedman can’t wait to put on his best poolboy impression!
