Oprah Winfrey will end her daily talk show today ... after 25 successful years on the air.
During her final show, taped yesterday but airing today, the 57-year-old host addressed her final audience with the following:
"There are no words to match this moment. This show has been going on for 4561 days of my life."
As for her fashion choices before hiring a stylist, Oprah added, "[I had] just a Jheri Curl and a bad fur coat."
300 audience members, including friends Gayle King and Maria Shriver, watched as Oprah gave her final words. Lady O said:
"Gratitude is the single greatest treasure I will take with me from this experience. I thank you for sharing this yellow brick road of blessings. I won't say goodbye -- I'll just say, 'Until we meet again.'"

Biggest Loser as a full-time coach, and it was finally revealed on last night's season finale -- along with the
BL season 11 winner, Olivia Ward!
But the sexy tennis star isn't new to
Biggest Loser, she made an appearance at the Ranch in 2010, where she coached contestants in a tennis-themed challenge. The producers loved her so much, they offered her a full-time gig!
Kournikova is taking over for trainer Jillian Michaels, who is leaving the show to focus on starting a family. After the announcement, A.K. expressed:
"Mind is a powerful thing. You can make things happen if you want them bad enough. I know all about discipline, strength and conditioning, commitment. This is my chance to give back -- the opportunity of a lifetime -- and a way to teach the contestants everything I know."
Welcome to LA Anna!

Kim, Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian need your help!
The
newly engaged Kimmy K expressed on her blog Monday of the girl's venture, "The novel is based on our lives but we’ve added a lot of crazy fictional twists and turns. You’ll have to decide for yourself which story lines are true to life, and which ones we dreamed up."
Sounds like a page-turner!
So why can't they come up with a title themselves? Kardashian expressed: "We thought it would be super fun if we asked our fans to name the book! We couldn’t decide on a title, and we know how creative you guys are."
Apparently the fan who comes up with the best name gets more than the satisfaction of having their mark on the Kardashian sister's first novel, they actually get to be IN it! The winner will have a character with their name woven into the book.
We can't think of a better prize than that!
The novel is set to hit shelves November 1.
Find out how to submit your ideas to the Kardashian sisters, after the jump ...

Maksim Chmerkovskiy and his celebrity partner Kirstie Alley came in second last night on the
Dancing With the Stars finale, and according to Maks, this may be his last time on the hit ABC show.
As for whether he'll be returning for Season 13, the sexy pro tells
AOL TV:
"I don't know. It takes a lot out of you. When you invest that much of you into something that's supposed to be just work you [can] get misinterpreted. I don't know [if I'm coming back]. We'll see. Right now, I'm drained."
Kirstie Alley added:
"He's got good qualities. He's handsome, he's got a good voice and he's funny. He's got other qualities ... he's broody, he's deep. All the bad boy actors are like that. He could be a really great actor if he wanted to act."
Good for him! But if he doesn't return, we'll miss that sexy chest, for sure!
This isn't the first time Maks has taken a break from
DWTS. Ready about the first time ... after the jump.
