Oprah Winfrey is so desperate to get the first interview with Jaycee Lee Dugard that she's taken an unprecedented step: She actually called her producers. The New York Post reports that Oprah's desire to interview the now-29-year-old who was raped, kidnapped, and held captive for 18 years led her to actually ask her people to work on it. The talk queen said, "It's the first time I have ever called up my producers and said, 'Are we on this story? Because I want that interview!'"
