Talk show giant Oprah (our personal favorite!) collapsed from heat exhaustion during a recent visit to her hometown of Kosciusko, Mississippi.
Oprah was in town for the opening ceremony of the Oprah Winfrey Boys & Girls Club, when temperatures hovering around 100 degrees and the very high humidity caused her to feel unwell.
An onlooker said, "Just as Oprah was about to cut the ribbon, she collapsed.
"She was getting dizzier and dizzier, she started sweating profusely and her vision became blurred. Her knees were buckling under her and she nearly blacked out.
"Oprah quickly stepped back and found a seat. She tried to revive herself by putting cool compresses on her head and drinking liquids.
"Oprah made light of the situation, telling everyone it was due to the heat."
