Oprah tickets are harder to score than this season's new Chanel handbag, but the daytime diva is shutting down Michigan Avenue to throw a huge, free block party on Sept. 8 to celebrate the start of her TV show's 24th season.

If you don't want to have to fight crazy book club members to get into the televised event, the Affinia Chicago offers you a strategy: stay at its nearby hotel to be close to the action and you'll get a room for $109 per night.

After endless <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/Inauguration%20Hotels">speculation</a>, the big day has arrived. As predicted, its freezing in D.C., but a bevy of celebs and, of course, biggest-celebrity-in-the-world Barack Obama has transformed our nations capitol into the hotspot of a lifetime. But even through all the Obamarama hope-mongering, we know youre at least secretly still interested in another A+-lister. Thats right, Oprahs in town, and her star is not the kind to get overlooked no matter the occasion. As we <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/12/23/11726/162/hotels/Oprah_Will_Check_Into_Four_Seasons_D_C_for_Inauguration">reported</a> way back in December, the Queen of Chat is staying five nights in the Royal Suite at the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Four+Seasons+Washington/ian/115062">Four Seasons</a> (at $15,000 a night).

<![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6929/oprahobama.jpg" class="top"> Oprah Winfrey has been perhaps Obama's loudest and proudest celeb supporter this year, and the rumor mill has been churning out all sorts of Oprah/Obama rumors since Barack was elected in November. We've <a href="http://blogs.suntimes.com/oprah/2008/12/oprah_winfreys_going_to_dc_for.html">heard that</a> she's been planning to tape a couple of special shows in the nation's capitol from the Kennedy Center Opera House, and, thanks to a <a href="http://www.nypost.com/seven/12192008/gossip/pagesix/dc_househunt_144905.htm">NY Post story</a> last week, people have been buzzing about the Winfrey possibly purchasing a mansion of her own in Washington to ensure she'd be close to Obama (<a href="http://blogs.suntimes.com/oprah/2008/12/oprah_im_not_moving_to_dc.html">false</a>).

London: Memo to Oprah :: Swipe Dorchester Spa Slippers Next Time

We were so busy relating to her that we almost forgot she was Oprah for a second there -- until we learned that she was on her way back to her suite at the Dorchester London and, uh, some of their suites can go for over $5,000 per night.

Yeah. We cannot relate.
