It’s all work and no play these days for Oprah. The television titan recently cut her vacation short to continue working on the Oprah Winfrey Network — and can you blame her?

The woman has quite the checklist ahead: rev up network ratings, launch new summer shows, interview O.J. Simpson, and get him to admit the truth. 

“The vacation that I thought that I was going to have is over. I need to be there. I need to be engaged and involved,” she said at the National Cable & Telecommunications Association convention in Chicago. “I have committed everything I have to this cable venture. I wouldn’t bet against me.”

We wouldn’t either, Oprah — we’re behind you 100 percent. Keep up the good work!
