Oprah Winfrey got Chicago to do quite a dance. As the Black Eyed Peas launched into their summer smash single “I Gotta Feeling” from the stage looking north on Michigan Avenue from just north of the bridge, the thousands of audience members crowding those blocks stood dead still, arms at their sides. But soon the folks upfront were waving their hands in sync, and, heading back from the stage, each section sprung to life until everyone was waving, shimmying, outstretching their arms, crouching and clapping as one in an intricate, lengthy routine.
As a spectacle it was impressive, sure to be the highlight of the 24th season debut of ” The Oprah Winfrey Show,” airing Thursday. Really, the “I Gotta Feeling” dance wasn’t just a musical number; it was Oprah’s own Opening Ceremony. Peas also performed their new single: "Meet Me Halfway".
