Oprah: I'm not seeking job with Obama

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Oprah Winfrey says she has never considered going to work for President-elect Barack Obama's administration.

Winfrey worked hard on Obama's campaign, but the talk show host says she already has a few full-time jobs.

Winfrey says she would stay put, even if the president-elect came calling.

Earlier this week, Winfrey's production company confirmed she would host her Chicago-based talk show in Washington for at least two episodes during inauguration week.

She'll have a live show from the Kennedy Center Opera House one day before the ceremony, and tape another one on Jan. 21.

Despite rumors to the contrary, Winfrey says she hasn't picked out a dress for the inaugural ball yet.
