The Stars Show Their Love: Oprah's After-Party Exclusive!

Posted: 18 May 2011 10:59 AM PDT

Madonna, Simon Cowell, Jamie Foxx, Usher and more of Hollywood's glitterati celebrated at United Center for Oprah Winfrey's final tapings, culminating her impressive 25 years in television. "Extra's" AJ Calloway was there to capture all of the excitement and shared his photos from the event via Twitter!

Madonna told AJ about Oprah, "I like her because she's smart, she's really smart. I like anyone who encourages people to read. She's very dignified and she just keeps going."

"X Factor" creator Simon Cowell said the night was an "historic" moment and pointed out, "To make it for two-and-a-half years is a miracle, 25 years still at the top, all these big stars come out, no egos, all for her... it's a special night."

Simon continued, "She reinvented this genre of TV, most importantly, what we all learned is without your audience you have no show. You have to respect your audience, and she respects them."

Now that Winfrey's show has ended, Cowell told AJ that Oprah could join "X Factor" as a judge. "If she wants it, she can have it."

Oprah's pal Jamie Foxx was also there to show his support. "Everybody on stage has benefited from Oprah Winfrey," Foxx said. "You look at all the stuff, the money, and everything like that -- it's really not about that, it's about her saving people's lives in dark corners of the world, especially women."

Rosie O'Donnell, who recently joined OWN to launch a new show, marveled at the network giant, saying, "She set the bar so high, I don't think anyone will ever come close. I love Oprah in my own special way because of what she taught me about service and how important it is to give to others."

Usher admitted he almost unveiled his secret guest appearance. "I accidentally tweeted that I was gonna be here! We got it down quick enough to get it off, but she didn't find out, so it's all good."

Oprah continued, "I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it. I can't even... I was talking to Jamie Foxx about that for a while and he said, 'What was that?' and I go 'What WAS that?' I don't know. I was able to really receive it in a way that I didn't think I could. All day long I was like, 'Accept the love, accept the love, accept the love...' She was particularly blown away by the Morehouse College men's choir performance with Kristen Chenoweth. "When Tyler Perry said a few of them were here, I thought it was going to be 4... I did not know it was 415. I can't believe it!" And one of her favorite moments was when Aretha Franklin sang "Amazing Grace." Oprah gushed, "Of all the moments that would be my all-time favorite moment. Aretha Franklin actually coming out an singing 'Amazing Grace,' which I listen to every Sunday... put me in the rapture." The clearly overwhelmed O summed it up, saying, "I'm gonna think about it for a couple days -- then call me." "Surprise Oprah: A Farewell Spectacular" airs May 23 and 24 on "The Oprah Winfrey Show."

Hayley Atwell Talks About Her Role As Peggy Carter In Captain America!

Posted: 18 May 2011 10:09 AM PDT

On Wielding The Various Weapons In The Movie: "I started off with a pistol and the director could clearly tell how much I loved working with it and said 'Oh just give her a machine gun' and I was like 'yes'! So I got to play with that for a few months. There's lots of action in it and I'd love to do more of it." On The Character Of Peggy Carter: "I think she's quite stubborn, a slightly frustrated woman who struggles with being a woman in that time. But more importantly she's a modern woman and she sees something in Captain America that she relates to, and becomes kindred spirits. He treats her very differently to how she's been treated by lots of men, in this kind of dominated world she lives in. So she's very much a fighter." On What It Was Like To Work Alongside Chris Evans: "Chris was a gentleman.
