Oprah Winfrey Instagram – I had my first tequila shot 2 weeks after I turned 50 at @johntravolta’s 50th birthday celebration. Those of you who partake know how it changes a party. In all these years I’ve never gotten @ava, nor @gayleking or @stedmangraham to take a sip of alcohol. So this was a monumental moment. Ava’s first on her 50th birthday party—then after much convincing second shot!
