    Need Another Reason to Love Oprah? I've Got One

    I love a woman with big cajones.

    While everyone's buzzing about Oprah going natural for her latest magazine cover, I've always appreciated her keep-it-real approach to beauty.

    Exhibit A: Her instagram.

    Yesterday, she tweeted a picture sans makeup in front of her wig collection for her upcoming movie. Hilarious? Yes. Refreshing? Double yes.

    And two days before that, she took to instagram again, that time with a picture of herself getting a zit zapped. We've all been there, but who has the guts to share the moment with her 13 million followers? Ms. Winfrey, of course.

    Sure she's not the first celeb to share makeup-free pics -- we all remember Katy Perry and Lady Gaga's fresh-faced tweets. But it takes a certain level of confidence to be the most famous woman in the world and still be willing to bare less-than-perfect skin and hair, on a regular basis no less.

    So, let's take a moment and toast to Oprah. No matter what you think of her, you've got to respect the woman's down-to-earth, no B.S. transparency.

    Take that Photoshop.
