NEW YORK—Gracing the cover of her magazine for the 218th time since it began publication in 2000, Oprah Winfrey has broken the record for most appearances on the cover of O, The Oprah Magazine, staff at the publication confirmed Thursday. “We always love having Oprah in the office. She just really embodies what this magazine is all about,” said O editor-in-chief Lucy Kaylin, who noted that the June 2018 cover featuring the media mogul edged out the previous record of 217 cover appearances, previously set in May of 2018 by Winfrey herself. “Ellen DeGeneres, Michelle Obama, and Beast, a 10-year-old African lion, are among those tied in second place for the title with one cover each. Though I should mention that Oprah does in fact appear along with them on the front of those issues as well.” Kaylin added that to mark the occasion, the record-breaking edition of the magazine features an exclusive cover story on Winfrey, plus an eight-page photo spread featuring the talk show host and actress.
