WINFREY'S HOUSTON CHAT HER 'BEST INTERVIEW EVER'

OPRAH WINFREY is ecstatic at how her interview with comeback queen WHITNEY HOUSTON panned out - branding the no-holds-barred chat 'the best interview I've ever done'.

The I Will Always Love You superstar is returning to the limelight with her first album in six years, after battling an alleged drug problem and divorcing husband Bobby Brown.

As part of her promotional duties in preparation for her new record, I Turn To You, Houston gave media mogul Winfrey the exclusive comeback interview for the new season of her hit talk show.

And it seems the session has been a tremendous success - Winfrey insists her sit-down talk with Houston is the most significant "connection" she's ever had with a guest.

She says in a statement to Access Hollywood, "I think it's the best interview I've ever done. But I guess you're supposed to let other people say that about yourself. I can't think of a moment, ever, when I had a stronger connection to the person I was interviewing.

"My approach to this interview was to not be judgemental in any way, and not to go in trying to get her to say things to make a 'moment'. I just wanted to be able to have an honest conversation with her. One woman to another woman. And the day of the interview I literally prayed about that all day long. I just wanted a connection between the two of us. And that is what happened."

The interview will air in the U.S. on 14 September (09).
