Oprah Winfrey's hotly anticipated, two-part interview with Lance Armstrong will air Thursday and Friday nights at 9 p.m. EST/PST on OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network. For those without a cable subscription, "Oprah and Lance Armstrong: The Worldwide Exclusive" will also be streamed live at Oprah.com.
Although the exact content of their lengthy conversation remains to be seen, the disgraced cancer survivor turned cycling champion and philanthropist reportedly confesses in the recorded interview to using performance-enhancing drugs to win an unprecedented seven Tour de France titles.
LIVE UPDATES: Lance Armstrong admits doping right away on Oprah
Armstrong's carefully maintained reputation began to unravel last year when he announced he would no longer fight charges from the United States Anti-Doping Agency.

Rumors of a confessional with Winfrey -- famed for her tell-all conversations with the likes of James Frey and Michael Jackson -- began to swirl a few weeks ago. On Jan 8, OWN officially announced the "no-holds-barred" interview, which was recorded Monday in Austin, Texas.
