Oprah had a little run in with a fan over the weekend in more ways than one. After getting dinner at Miami restaurant, Prime 112, the former talk show host's SUV ran over a woman's foot. However, Lori Geller Bender was very calm about the whole incident as she got to snap a picture with Oprah after the event.

Bender spoke out to Page Six, where she recalls the incidents.

"We were crossing the street to arrive at the restaurant, and there were a lot of cameras," Lori explained to the news site. "I could see a big crowd of security guards, and as soon as Oprah got into the car, it pulled out from the curb, and a wheel went over my foot. I was wearing heels, my toe was trapped under the wheel and I feel to the ground, hitting my coccyx and my head... I am lucky because if the SUV had gone slightly further forward it would have crushed my whole ankle."

After Bender's husband alerted the driver by banging on the window, he reversed off of Lori's foot and Oprah got out of the car to make sure that she was okay.

"The driver reversed off my foot and Oprah jumped out," Lori continued. "She couldn't have been nicer and more gracious. She looked really shocked and asked me if I was OK, and took a good look at my foot. I wasn't hurt, and I told her I was fine. Oprah said, 'Well, that's worth a picture,' and she put her arm around me and we took some photos."

Bender was a good sport about the whole incident as she says, "it was always on my bucket list to meet Oprah, but I could never have imagined it would be because her driver ran over my toe."

Luckily Lori is okay and she has a great story to tell now. (via E! Online)
