Oprah's $6 Million Chicago Co-Op For Lease

Nov 18, 2011 02:45 PM

For a mere $15,000/month, you too can live like Oprah!

The Talk Show Queen has just listed her $6 million 4607 square foot 3 bed/3.5 bath co-op in The Windy City for lease, and while she's never actually lived there, it's still grand enough for Miss O to consider.

The Benjamin Marshall Beaux-Arts style luxury home is definitely worth the $15K a month price tag -- it includes a library, living room, a master bedroom with 10ft ceilings, an inner foyer, a grand foyer, a formal dining room, a solarium, a butler's pantry, a wine room, a gourmet custom kitchen, a walk in closet, city views, a laundry room, an office and a two car garage.

Mega-mogul Winfrey purchased the swanky pad in the upscale Streeterville neighborhood circa 2006 for $5,600,000, but she never moved in. O decided to list the property last June for $6,000,000, but it failed to sell.

Oprah also owns lavish properties in Montecito, Califo., Lavallette, New Jersey, Chicago, an estate on Fisher Island, a ski house in Telluride, Colorado, and property on the island of Maui, Hawaii.

Oprah Winfrey is hoping Rosie O'Donnell will be a good fit for OWN TV. Both Lady O and the former View co-host are gracing the upcoming issue of O Magazine.

These two women certainly have their own sense of style and a great sense of humor!

Rosie, who will begin her own talk show on Oprah's network, opens up about moving her family from New York to Chicago. She tells the mag:

    "Sometimes you go outside and get beat up by New York. The city accosts you. But being in the middle of Chicago, it's peaceful."

As for the fame that goes along with the job, Rosie adds:

    "There are some things I'll never get back -- like the normality of life pre-fame. I've had to come to terms with the fact that fame is like a tattoo -- it doesn't go away."

Good luck, Rosie!

Jenny McCarthy and Oprah Winfrey will not be working together afterall. The 38-year-old former Playboy model has decided to take her talk show to NBC ... pulling it from the OWN network, according to FOX411.com.

A source tells the site:

    "Jenny wasn't thrilled with the direction that OWN producers were going with on the show. She had been working with Oprah and her producers for over a year, developing this project for OWN. Jenny finally decided to embrace Oprah's philosophy, which is to 'follow your bliss.' Well, Jenny followed her bliss and walked right off the project."

The OWN network had signed a development deal with McCarthy back in 2009.

Great to see the 13-year-old boy in such great spirits after his recent boogie boarding accident that sent him to the hospital with a collapsed lung.

As for Maria, her impending divorce from Arnold Schwarzenegger appears to be taking a heavy toll on her and, no doubt, being surrounded by friends like Lady O, is just what she needs.
