Oprah sure knows how to steal the spotlight!

A spy at Saturday’s M.A.C. cosmetics bash for Mo’Nique at Phillippe Chow in L.A. said that when Ms. Winfrey made a surprise appearance, attendees like Shondrella Avery and Jackee Harry “flipped out” and even “had tears in their eyes.”

“The ladies really couldn’t believe she was at the same party,” the source says. But ever the diva, Mo stole back the limelight when she insisted the entire Parisian-themed luncheon area be turned into a dance floor when the guests finished eating. She then requested that Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” be turned on full blast.

“Mo’Nique started a conga line that went throughout the restaurant and eventually led out to the valet parking area,” the partygoer says. “The ladies, who were all decked in pearls and white gloves, were really getting down.”
