Oprah has opened her own Leadership Academt for Girls in South Africa. And to the girls, they refer to the mogul as Mom O. In a recent interview, Winfrey said “They are my greatest, deepest joy,”.

Opened in 2007, OWLAG, as it’s called, is a boarding school with facilities rivaling those of top prep schools in the United States. More importantly, 90 percent of graduates have enrolled in colleges including Harvard and Oxford — remarkable in a country where roughly 20 percent of students attend university.

“They’re the daughters I did not have,” Winfrey, who’s turning 65 on Jan. 29, says. “I never thought that that mothering instinct was something for me. I like babies, but I like them like, ‘Hi baby, okay, now go over there.’ I like children when they can actually speak to me and tell what is the problem. This is how having children was supposed to manifest for me.”
