Talk show host Oprah Winfrey has arrived in Copenhagen to support Chicago’s Olympic Games bid team, according to reports.

Winfrey, 55, has gone to Denmark to campaign for her adopted city Chicago to host the 2016 summer Olympics.

US President Barack Obama is also heading over to Denmark soon to join Winfrey, in an attempt to bring the Olympics to the Windy City, say reports.

Despite fierce competition, the pair, along with others, will try and persuade Queen Margrethe ll and Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen to let Chicago host the Games.
