OPRAH Winfrey has secretly flown into Edinburgh to record a tell-all interview with JK Rowling.
The US chat show queens hour-long TV special with the Harry Potter writer will be screened in America on Friday.
Oprah, who is said to be the worlds most famous woman, managed to fly in and out of Scotland with no publicity.
Millions of viewers will see media-shy JK, 45, talk about her love life and a battle with depression in the no-holds-barred chat.
She also reveals for the first time why she once knocked back a mysterious offer from pop legend Michael Jackson.
A message on Oprah's official website yesterday described the interview as "one of the most fascinating shes ever done".
It added: "Oprah is on location in Scotland with JK Rowling, the billionaire mom behind the Harry Potter empire as she takes on the harsh critics, and opens up about depression, her biggest regrets and the love of her life."
"Find out how her epic failure became a billion dollar success story, and why she turned down an offer from the King of Pop, Michael Jackson."
Oprah, who is worth more than 1.5billion, spent an hour with JK, who has an estimated fortune of around a billion.
Details of the show were first leaked on Harry Potter fan sites.
TV listings in America confirmed the reports and offered an expanded preview of the interview.
Rowling has previously admitted she felt suicidal after the break-up of her first marriage. She's since wed Dr Neil Murray.
Oprah, who plans to retire from the show next year, has interviewed the biggest names on the planet.
