Oprah's Favorite Things - 2012 edition...

In a show aired on 20 November 2007, Josh's Christmas album made the list of Oprah's favorite.   Not all that surprising given the CD was released in October 2007.

Fast forward five years, and once again Noel has been included in Oprah's Favorite Things 2012.

Josh took to Twitter to express his appreciation.

Thank you @oprah for making Noel a "favorite thing" for a second time!! I'm honored!!

Oprah farwell...

Josh didn't let being on tour stop him from being part of the all-star cast for Surprise Oprah! A Farewell Spectacular in front of a crowd of around 13,000 at Chicago’s United Center.

It turns out that after his show in Dallas, Josh flew to Chigaco to be part of this farewell, and then after his performance he flew right back to San Antonio. 

Josh sang 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' and was joined on-stage by Patti LaBelle.

Josh told Access Hollywood that he just wanted to say thank you.

The episodes are scheduled to screen on US stations on May 23/24 (check your local guides).

Josh on Oprah (Pt.2)...

Memorable Viewer Surprise - The Josh Groban edition -

Josh Groban and Savanna

Savanna, a 22-year-old audience member, says Gayle's serenade is her favorite Oprah Show surprise of all time.

"I'm a huge Groban-ite, which is what they call themselves, all the Josh Groban fans," she says. "When I watch it, I just picture myself as Gayle, and I just start crying." If she were in Gayle's shoes, she says she would react the same way…or would she?

As Savanna stands facing Oprah, Josh walks out and surprises her! Tears run down her cheeks as she follows Josh on stage for a serenade of her own.

"I'd like to sing a song for you," Josh says to Savanna. "It's a song that means a lot to me, and today, it's for you."

"For all of you who love his music, [Josh] is as good, as kind, as gracious, as humble and as grand as his music," Oprah says.
