Oprah's lips are sealed when it comes to discussing her recent holiday in Tahiti with Barack and Michelle Obama.The 63-year-old was quizzed about the getaway at the New York premiere of her new film The Immoral Life of Henrietta Lacks, but the talk show queen refused to spill any secrets.

"This is the deal, what happens on the boat stays on the boat," the media mogul quipped to Extra  about her time on a yacht with the Obamas. Oprah wasn't dishing up any details on the former president and his wife, but she did gush over fellow vacationers Tom Hanks  and Bruce Springsteen.
