The media mogul – who turned the big 6-0 in January – shows off her slim figure on the cover of the May issue of her namesake O Magazine.

Reclining on a rug wearing a lilac Vicky Tiel of Carms Couture dress with her long dark mane delicately framing her perfectly made-up face, Oprah looks simply sensational in the image.

Ahead of her milestone 60th earlier this year, Oprah revealed that she’s reached a phase in her life where she stop worrying about being judged by others.

“I’m turning 60, and — please don’t take offense — I no longer have to be concerned about what anyone thinks of me!” wrote Oprah on her website. “I’ve earned the right to be just as I am. I’m more secure in being myself than I’ve ever been.”

Among her pre-birthday reflections was Oprah’s revelation that her “highest achievement” was her ability to overcome obstacles in her life by never shutting her open heart.

“Even in my darkest moments – through sexual abuse, a pregnancy at 14, lies and betrayals – I remained faithful, hopeful, and open to seeing the best in people, regardless of whether they were showing me their worst.”

Oprah’s upcoming issue is all about celebrating the skin you are in and in the past Oprah has joked about how to stay young.

“You can be and do whatever you want, thanks to exercise and hair colour. Hair colour. The greatest invention of all time for women. Thank you, Miss Clairol.”

The May issue of O, The Oprah Magazine hits newsstands on April 15.
