Atlanta - Talk show host Oprah Winfrey realises many women wish they could have her successful life.
"I know what that's like because I grew up wishing I could be Diana Ross," Winfrey said.
Winfrey spoke on Saturday during her Hi Gorgeous tour, which promotes health, body acceptance and individuality. The sold-out event was geared toward subscribers of O, The Oprah Magazine, but also drew fans of her TV show.
Nearly 3 000 women paid $45 each to hear Winfrey speak and to learn lifestyle tips on healthy eating, matching wine with food and yoga.
"It's OK to be who you are," said Zannett Meeks, 39, who brought her 82-year-old grandmother to the event. "We all have the potential to reach high goals."
