*Students, faculty and guests of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa were sworn to secrecy last weekend after finding out that the school's founder was on her way for a visit.
South Africa's News24.com is reporting that everyone at the Academy had to sign an agreement promising not to have cameras or cell phones when Winfrey arrived, and not to tell anyone that she was coming.
The talk show host arrived via private jet from London, where she had attended events surrounding Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday celebration. With best friend Gayle King by her side, Winfrey threw a dinner for the students and presented 11-year-old South African violinist In-Cha as the evening's special guest.
Oprah and the school's executive head, John Samuel, gave speeches at the dinner, while later in the evening, she joined the girls for dancing.
