chat with Oprah

Billy Joel and wife, Katie Lee, offered fans a glimpse into their lives together on Monday’s “Oprah,” sitting with Oprah Winfrey for their first ever joint interview.

Joel seemed fine performing “Only the Good Die Young” with his band, but looked a little uncomfortable sitting on the couch next to Winfrey, who rolled through his career, his driving mishaps and stint in rehab in a matter of minutes.

Winfrey talked him into admitting he was a legend, though he did back away from her description of his glamorous lifestyle.

“I’ve never been a glamor boy,” said Joel. “My house is glamorous. I try to surround myself with as much glamor as I can.”

“But you don’t think you are?” asked Winfrey.

“Nah,” said Joel.

Katie Lee Joel, on the other hand, played the role of hostess for the “Oprah” cameras, taking them on a tour of the couple’s West Village home - decorated by Winfrey pal Nate Berkus - introducing them to their pug, Fionnula, and cooking a meatloaf.

As the Joels sat on the couch holding hands, Katie Lee explained to Winfrey how the 32-year age difference never really mattered to them. “He has this job that’s allowed him to be really immature for a long time and I happen to be more mature for my age, so we meet somewhere in the middle,” she said.

“When it works, when it clicks, you don’t fight it,” Billy Joel added. “You just go with it… I would’ve married her if she was 30 years older than me.”
