Earlier this week, we were wondering -- who will escort Oprah to this weekend's Kennedy Center Honors festivities? Would it be her BFF Gayle King (the editor of O, The Oprah Magazine) or her longtime BF Stedman Graham (with whom she has a "spiritual union" instead of a marriage)?

Well, we're still not sure, but Stedman just arrived in Washington, D.C., and one thing's for sure ... we are on the lookout.
