Tonight, Oprah will be the first black woman to take home the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globes. Given the level of prestige that comes with such a distinct honor, it makes sense that Oprah would have the best seat in the venue. Not only does she have a prime view of the entire ceremony with a front row seat, but she is also in the company of pals Gayle King, Stedman Graham, Ava DuVernay, Viola Davis and Denzel Washington. Obviously, it didn't take long for everyone on Twitter to notice the VIP table and the memes have been rolling out. Scroll down to see some of the best tweets.

I think whoever was in charge of seating at the #GoldenGlobes was like “How can I make every winner and presenter feel inadequate despite their accomplishments? Oh I’ll sit @Oprah front and center and everyone will freak out” #Globes75 #GoldenGlobes2018

i love how everyone just says "oprah!" when they get up there, like they are bathed in the light of a deity and need to acknowledge it up front so as to let everyone know they have been blessed
