TV talk show diva Oprah Winfrey wants to be the first to get an interview with Jaycee Dugard, the 29-year-old rescued weeks ago from her abductors and abusers Philip and Nancy Garrido. Ever since her miraculous rescue, Jaycee Dugard has maintained a low media profile. To this date, not a single photo of Jaycee or her two daughters has been leaked.

But in a recent interview to the Insider, the prime time queen Oprah said she wants to be the first one to talk to Jaycee on camera. Really, it is hard to imagine anyone but Oprah talking to the long-term abuse survivor Jaycee Dugard. After all, Oprah is famous for her down-to-earth convo style and approachability.

There are speculations that Dugard will appear on the show in December and will be paid a whopping $1 million for her interview. Dugard's family members are denying these speculations. Interestingly, producers on Oprah are also denying that they have Dugard booked.

"I want that interview," Oprah said. "This is the first time I have ever called up a producer and said 'are we on this story?' because I want that interview."
