The one and only Oprah Winfrey has six toes on her left foot. This is a condition known as polydactyly. Oprah has never talked about having it, but she’s been spotted out and about in open-toed shoes, and, well, we can count.

Maybe the extra toe is the secret to her success. Most likely not, but really, this woman can do no wrong. While it’s interesting to learn of celebrity’s rare birth defects, it only makes them more human to us, as we realize that everyone is born differently and we can all overcome obstacles.
