Ludacris mimicked one of Oprah Winfrey's signature moves and gave away 20 cars in the Atlanta area on Sunday. 

You gotta wonder if he shouted, "You get a car...and you get a car...and you get a car!" just for the heck of it!

But seriously, enough big "O" jokes. The rapper-actor teamed up with his Ludacris Foundation and Nissan South to show some much needed Southern hospitality to Atlanta residents, awarding 20 used vehicles to those in need.

President of the foundation Roberta Shields said: "This year we want to do something to help youth and families manage during these tough economic times. Having a vehicle to get back and forth to work and day care can make the difference in getting and keeping a job."

Contestants submitted essays for the "LudaCares Stimulus Package," detailing their need for a car, with the lucky winners driving off in a used vehicle and free gas for 30 days.
