Oprah gathered her best Australian pals -- Nicole Kidman, Keith Urban, Hugh Jackman, Olivia Newton-John and Russell Crowe -- to tape her second show at the Sydney Opera House today in Australia. Some 12,000 audience members were selected from 350,000 applicants to participate in two tapings of The Oprah Winfrey Show.
Also on hand for the tapings: Jay-Z, Bono, Bon Jovie and Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's widow, Terri Irwin, along with kids Bindi and Robert. Terri broke down onstage as she spoke of her husband, who was killed by a sting ray barb in 2006.
