Sorry to disappoint you, folks, but it ain't happening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're told in no uncertain terms by Oprah's peeps -- she's not throwing a party during Obamafest. There had been loud whispers she would be hosting a shindig at her ex-personal chef Art Smith's new joint, Art and Soul, in the District. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The whispers only got louder when people who tried to get a reservation for Jan. 18-21 were turned away because, they said, the eatery was \"bought out\" during those dates.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seems O will be concentrating on her show, which will be live from DC that week -- and keeping an eye on her own waistline."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
