Hi Ellen,

I'm a singer/songwriter from Manchester, England. I love your show and think you're a wonderful figurehead for modern America and beyond. I know this comments section is mainly for talent spotting for your show, and I'm well aware that I'm unlikely to be invited onto the show, being that I'm across the other side of the Atlantic(!), but I thought I'd let you listen to some of the music that I write and let you know that your fan-base extends further than just the reaches of America.

Check out the music that I wrote on my website:

Hope you like it!!

Thanks for your time and we look forward to more great shows in the future.
Best wishes and God Bless.

hey Ellen,
My name is Nakia i am 13 years old and my hidden talent is i can sing i know it isn't really that unusual or anything but i want the chance to get out their and have people notice me as a singer my mom and sibling's think i have a very good voice and i want people to actually see that i can sing and would love it if i could sing in front of a bunch of people and be able to get a music producer and be able to go far with my music this is like my dream.

I can eat with my toes lol : )

hey Ellen
my special talent is that i am double jointed in my shoulder blades and i can pop them out of my back and make them dance
i can also pop my shoulder in and out of place quickly it sounds gross but its is really funny

hi ellen. when i was in highschool i got the nickname chipmunk girl. haha i know its funny sounding.
well anyways the way i got it. One day at lunch my friend dared me to see how many grapes i could hold in my mouth, without chewing. that means keep them whole.
I tried it. the first time i did it i was able to hold 22. yes 22. the next day, one of the football players challenged me to a contest.
At lunch the whole group of kids there, got 2 lunch trays of grapes, one for each of us. then they said go.. we had to stuff as many as we could, no time limit, just until we couldn't do anymore. then we had to be able to close our lips. Well the football player only had 24. when i pulled them out i had a total of 44. yes 44. i have tried and cannot put that much in but the most i have been able to hold was 30. so that is my talent, strange i know but i can hold 30 whole grapes in my mouth. wow.

My friends, Charles & Sarah Arthur have great talents. Please view Charles doing a song he wrote. It's on YouTube.com. Santa vs. the Hambone Kid. It's Charles doing the hambone about Santa....the challenge in song is against Santa doing the hambone. Sarah also has a Patsy Cline song and "I Could Have Danced All Night" video there also. They are with great local musicians. Hope you enjoy. Would love to see him and her on your show.
I just started doing ballroom dancing at 64 after a divorce and won lst. place in some local ballroom competition. Love to dance. I love your show and you are such a genuine person that brings such joy. Thanks so much

My hidden talent is, da da da da. . . . . running! Last month I just ran a full (26.2 miles) marathon on my TREADMILL! This year I had been training for the Teton Dam Marathon. Unfortunately, after I had been training already up to 17 miles, I found out that I had to get my tonsils out and the only available surgery date happened to fall the week of the marathon. There was NO WAY I was going to let all of my training fly out the window so I decided to do my own "dam" marathon, on my 10-year-old treadmill, in my basement! I ran it in 3:57:09. I wanted to videotape the whole thing but I couldn't find a tape that could record that long, however, I did get the ending recorded for proof. My kids held up a crate paper finish line that I just fell backwords into. It was awesome!

Hi Ellen, I guess you could say that I have hidden talent because it's been hiding for most of my life. I'm 54, a wife of 32 years, a mother to 3 grown children and a grandmother of 2 beautiful little girls. Our youngest son just left for the Navy in May. At the moment, I'm an unemployed Marketing Manager but my passion has always been singing. It's taken me a long time to build up confidence to pursue what people have told me is a God-given gift. I've never had a voice lesson, it just comes natural to me. Unlike a lot of emails you've received, I am not asking to appear on your show. I think that's like putting the cart before the horse. Since you've been a successful talent in the entertainment industry for most of your life, I'm just asking for a little advice. I will respect whatever you advise. I respect you because you're so real and there are so few out there who are. I would like to invest some of my hard-earned savings and get recorded professionaly. I know today's music is mostly for kids but I still believe that there's a market out there for some of the beautiful standards that we've grown up with. I've had a lot of people give me positive feedback on my voice but I'm not sure if they really have any expertise to do so. I was wondering if you or someone in your staff might listen to some of the songs I've recorded on myspace. I can't believe how lame that sounds but it's one way that I can prove or disprove that I am talented. If you don't think I have anything special, please just tell me straight that I'm barking up the wrong tree or as Simon Cowell would say, Sorry! If the advice you provide is to keep my day job, I'll respect that but I'll be honest, I'm still looking for another one! My contact info is below.

Ellen!
I just realized I spelled hidden wrong! Haha :) I spelled it with one d! Haha.
Xxoo.

Ellen!! My hiden talent is, I can sing! I know it's not a really near talent or unusual but no one knows I can sing really good or knows I love to sing! I hear I have a great voice from a few people I know and I want other people to hear me and tell me what they think of my voice! I just need to have the opportunity to get in front of people and sing! Because I really do enjoy it and love it! It's part of my life. So, that's my hiden talent Ellen! Love ya!

I also wanted to know why Scott Mcintyre was not on the show. I figure it may be his problem, as he is very religious and maybe could not tolerate Ellens being gay. Or maybe he fell ill, now that we know he had a kidney transplant. Let us know.

hi ellen my name is Esther and i'm 16 years old girl, and i was woundering if you can help me out with a little problem. i've been liveing in the UK for the past 7 years i came from CONGO in 2000 and my live has been OK ever since, i'm about to do my GCSE and i'm so nervous even thought i'm about to do travel and tourism in collge my dream has always been to become a model and right now i find it really hard to try and presude my dream because on mondy to wednesday i'm in school and on thrusday and friday i'm in colege doing a BETC/NVQ course of catering and hostpitality and on saturday and sunday i'm working in IKEA CROYDON even thought it seems easy but it is really hard for a 16 year old how wants to be some were else and not hear how every one tells me that "you should be a model" " you have the talent" i want to show it off and not just sit in a boring lesson or serving RUDE CUSTOMERS i want to be me. thanks for reading im sorry that this is so long, oh heay don't my spellings.
