The three stars of the premiere of "Becoming Chaz" were, in order, Oprah Winfrey, Chaz's mom Cher, and Chaz's longtime lover Jen.
The documentary that premiered at Sundance last weekend chronicles the journey through gender reassignment of Chaz Bono, formerly Chastity Bono, daughter of Sonny and Cher.
But the buzz at the Park City premiere was all about Oprah, who, to the delight of Chaz and the film's directors, has bought "Chaz" for distribution on her new OWN Network.
