Oprah Winfrey apparently has a body double.

Oprah admitted that she has a 'stand in for every set', and introduced Hawaii local Shaka, who was the TV host's stand-in for April's O Magazine cover shoot.

In a behind-the-scenes video, Oprah introduced her body double Shaka, saying: "Every photo shoot that happens, happens with a huge team, and I have a stand-in for every single set,"

Shaka sat in for the 59-year-old while the magazine team set up the lighting to get the perfect shot of the host. Once everything was ready, Oprah stepped in for the photo shoot.

The cover shoot and interview for the magazine took place at Oprah's farm house in Maui.

Meanwhile, the billionaire host recently sold her Chicago storefront where she opened the flagship 'Oprah Store' in 2008 at a loss of over $1 million.

The store sold Oprah-logo apparel and Oprah's Closet items, including designer clothing and shoes owned by her. All the proceeds had gone to charity.

Oprah had originally bought the space for $1.9 million but sold it to a yoga studio this year for just $875,000.
