Black billionaire Oprah Winfrey felt generous lately. Known as being one of the world's richest women, Oprah Winfrey has never been afraid to share the wealth she accumulated as a renowned talk show host, television producer, and executive and actress. Her fortune currently sits at $2.6 billion dollars. As such, the famed talk show host took three alumni from her South African leadership academy to Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills this past Saturday. According to Daily Mail, the media executive dropped major dollar bills on the girls, including covering a $10,000 bill for a wedding dress. 

The 62-year old mogul shared a photo with the girls on her social media account and captioned the following: "I’ve known these girls since they were 12 and 13 coming to my school. Graduating from college. Grad school. Now our first wedding. Looking for the perfect dress." The four are seen all-smiles in the photo while holding onto the upscale and possible purchased wedding dress. Accordingly, the store was shut down so the group could shop in peace. 

Furthermore, this was not the only money move the Harpo productions-CEO pulled that day. Oprah's former students were also treated to a meal at Wolfgang Puck's reputable and fine dining restaurant Spago
