10 Celebs Oprah Should Interview On 'Next Chapter'
Once you've face-to-faced with Oprah Winfrey, you’ve made it. The media godmother's must-see interviews on OWN's Oprah's Next Chapter not only present the flip side of celebrities, but also usher in major ratings for her sometimes struggling network. Artists from Usher to Rihanna to Jamie Foxx have plopped down on O's sofa and now it’s time for others to get comfy. With Beyoncé fresh off the hot seat, VIBE compiled a list of 10 other stars we'd like to see Oprah chop it up with on Next Chapter.

Jay-Z
Hov had Oprah chilling in the Marcy projects, but what's Jigga Man like now that he's a father? The birth of baby Blue Ivy and a new outlook on life, as described by Beyonce in her Life Is But A Dream documentary, has to have an effect on the former skirt-chaser. With Oprah’s platform, viewers could see a completely different side of Daddy Carter.

Adele
The U.K. songbird shouldn’t fret over any stage fright when interviewing with one of the richest women in the world. Adele's honest and simplistic aura would help ease an enlightening convo about how she flipped heartbreak into a diamond-selling album.

Drake
Oprah’s extinguished beef with hip-hop allowed the aforementioned Jay-Z and 50 Cent to pop a squat. Another Grammy Award winner on the list, Drake could take the Jigga route and bring Oprah from the bottom to the top on a tour of his old stomping grounds in Toronto to his present position atop the hip-hop totem.

Lauryn Hill
Since the “Life Is Good” tour with Nas, Lauryn Hill has been slowly creeping back to the music scene... sort of. The name of the show is a testament to where Hill is at musically, and a long-awaited interview -- broaching topics like the Wyclef Jean affair and Miseducation production drama -- would be a career highlight.

Alicia Keys
Currently on tour setting cities ablaze, A. Keys could use some down time to speak on her growth as an artist since Songs In A Minor, and what R&B needs to remain prevalent in 2013. Motherhood would also be a topic on the table, plus O could get Keys to spill the real beans on you know what...

Miguel
Quiet as kept, the breakthrough R&B singer has a story to tell, and this interview would help shine a light on Miguel, the person and artist. With big names placing an ear to his feel-good melodies, the crooner's rise to fame could make for an eye-opening hour with Oprah. Bonus: a special performance of "Adorn" just for Oprah.

Mary J. Blige
With her history of drug abuse, heartbreak and recovery, our cover girl would be a great watch on Next Chapter. MJB and Oprah’s wisdom would provide a tweet-load of motivational quotes.

Destiny’s Child
The trio made headlines earlier this month with a brief but unforgettable reunion at Super Bowl XLVII. Yes, Beyonce recently had her own segment on Next Chapter, but why not return to the intimate set again with her clique and have some girl talk with Oprah. No holds bar.

Frank Ocean
The introverted R&B singer may be quiet when it comes to interviews, but his statements (on Tumblr or in person) speak volumes. A sit-down with the Queen of Media herself might break his barrier and reveal a new side of Ocean that we’ve yet to see.

Robin Roberts
With her triumphant return to ABC’s Good Morning America on Feb. 20, Robin Roberts’ story of battling breast cancer could serve as one of the many inspirational stories Oprah's known for serving up. The co-anchor took a six-month medical departure for a bone-marrow transplant and returned to her position with a bright smile. Woman to woman, tales of faith and support would be the crux of this episode.
