The Inauguration Night gossip is starting to pour in!
And here's a very juicy bit to kick it off: apparently Oprah Winfrey shared a "top, top secret" private dinner with President Elect Barack Obama last night.
Entertainment Tonight reports that the high-powered pair were among 100 people at a closed-doors banquet at Blair House, across the street from the White House.
Oprah's close friend Gayle King, who was also at the dinner, confirmed the rumor to ET.

"It was a buffet dinner, so everything you'd expect in a buffet was there - as someone who's trying to fit into a red hot inauguration dress, a buffet is not my friend," Gayle said.
She added that she wasn't sure what Oprah would be wearing to the inauguration on Tuesday, but said, "she will look stunningly gorgeous whatever color or designer she chooses."
Gayle herself said she will be wearing something red from designer Angel Sanchez, according to ET.
