A New Jersey woman claims Oprah Winfrey stole her famous phrase "Own Your Power" -- according to a lawsuit filed against Oprah and Harpo Productions.

In the lawsuit filed Thursday in a New Jersey federal court, Simone Kelly-Brown (CEO of Own Your Power Communications, Inc.) claims her company has been around since 1996 -- providing "a personal brand of self-awareness and motivational communication services."

According to the trademark infringement suit -- Kelly-Brown claims all the problems started with the October 2010 issue of Oprah's magazine, which included the headline "Own Your Power."

Kelly-Brown hasn't mentioned how much she is suing for -- a rep from Harpo issued a statement to EW, saying, "Harpo has not been served and we have no information about what allegations are being made."
