OWN has been working out of YouTube Space LA for more than six months to experiment with digital formats and online talent. The result of that partnership is a growing slate of digital programming, including the new series Who Am I, which will feature interviews with celebrity guests, including Richie, about the qualities that define them.

After the first two episodes of Who Am I premiere this Thursday, subsequent two- to three-minute episodes will be made available each week.

In addition to Richie, guests will include beauty vlogger Michelle PhanBrandy, former American Idol judge Randy Jackson and La Toya Jackson.

Who Am I is the second digital series from OWN. #OWNSHOW, a daily series that features stories from the Oprah community, debuted in March with the relaunch of Oprah.com, a digital hub for the network, O, The Oprah Magazine and Harpo Studios.

Meet Caesar Rivera: Rosie’s PA-Turned-Show-Stealer

Rosie O’Donnell better watch out! She’s facing some stiff competition in the talk show department at the OWN network… And, it’s coming from inside the elevator.

Meet Caesar Rivera, a production assistant on O’Donnell’s The Rosie Show.

The Rosie Show Caesar Rivera

Rivera, who studied film & video production at Columbia College Chicago, has transformed an elevator at Harpo Studios into the set of his very own talk show.

He’s even created his own logo, interview cards and mug for his cleverly titled show, Up & Down with Caesar. And he’s already scored some big name guests, including Andy Dick, Tracy Morgan and Leisha Hailey.

So what’s Rivera’s method of preparing for his next elevator confessional? “Doing nothing and expecting something!”

It looks like Rivera’s career is headed up, up and away… to the top floor.
