Look for the TV guru to unveil a few more new series for her new cable network -- including one featuring herself -- in a presentation to advertisers in New York today, reports USA TODAY's Gary Levin.
The Oprah Winfrey Network, a joint venture with Discovery Communications due to launch on Jan. 1, won't include her talk show, which ends in syndication in September 2011. But Winfrey will appear in Oprah's Next Chapter, an on-location interview series in which she'll travel to places "from the Taj Mahal to her beloved oak tree," the network says. (The project is described as a "regular" series but it's unclear how often it will air).
Also due: Visionaries: Inside the Creative Mind, featuring profiles of James Cameron, Lady Gaga and other creative talents; Your Own Show: Oprah's Search for the Next TV Star, a competition series from producer Mark Burnett (Survivor); a daily version of pal Gayle King's radio show and a reality series starring country singer Shania Twain.
UPDATE: Oprah has just made another announcement. Christina Aguilera will join Oprah for a show that will be taped at 10 a.m. at Radio City Music Hall in New York on May 7 to air at 4 p.m. that day. Xtina will perform and talk to Oprah. Other special guests are expected to make appearances during the broadcast. To get tickets to the show go to Oprah.com.

I wish she would do it around the time the album is out but this is still good. I can't. She finally gonna go on the Queen's show and promote her music not rock the vote or that bull.

if its as epic and beautiful as "beautiful" or "The Voice Within" then JESS. jess. I dont care about the radio hits and fodder.. i care about HER music.
It's hard to imagine Christina performing a club banger/uptempo on Oprah. I'm sure she'll want to showcase her vocals. I just hope that with her appearing on Oprah, RCA will not feel pressured to go with a ballad for the 2nd single. I want another uptempo or midtempo for the 2nd single and then a ballad for the 3rd.
