What Oscar Nominee is with Ellen?

Answer: Ed Norton

He was once rejected for a license to be a New York City cab driver.

Before starring in films, he worked in Japan as a consultant for an affordable housing developer.

He was nominated for an Oscar for his first major movie role.

Last year, he portrayed a man who turns into a very famous comic book hero when he becomes angry.

I love Sandee George's post, I agree 100% that there should be a special mom and daughter show with a 5-6 year old limit. My daughter Jordan loves your show she is 6.
We DVR your show every day and the whole family loves it. Ellen, we love what you do, how you do it and how amazingly you touch so many lives around the world.
If you ever decide to do a mommy - daughter show that would be awesome. I would have a huge shot of being husband and father of year, decade or maybe lifetime.
Good luck in 2009, I really hope you can get George Clooney in that seat next to you.

Hi Ellen,I love your show.I always get a laugh.I enjoyed todays show.Especially the guy from Truro Nova Scotia Canada.That's not far from where I live.He was amazing on the pogo.All the guests were great.It was fun to see Clint Eastwood on a talk show.He's very funny!!He's like Al Pacino,you never see him unless he's in a movie.I really enjoyed him.I hope your show never ends.I have an 8 yr old son who loves Akon.When I told him that Akon was on your show while he was in school he was so disappointed.I would have taped it but I didn't know he was going to be on.I recently retired so I can watch you everyday(until I get a part time job)Thanks for the laughs you have a very special gift!!

Hi Ellen
I have to tell you that my husband who is 75, watched Oprah, until one day last year, he had a heart attact and now he is home , permentely. He saw your show and was hooked, when I get home he is smiling and laughing, he gets
such a great kick out of your show, you boost his morale, by the way sometimes he watches Oprah after and sometimes not, but he has afit if he doesn't get to see your show.
Thanks for being there, you have helped a lot.

Ellen,
I watch your show everyday, whenever possible.
My two grandsons Joshua and Justin 6 and 8 watch
with me.(sorry no pictures) The other day my 8
year old grandson asked his Mom, my daughter "why
aren't there any kids in the audience, we like
Ellen and
watch her everyday with MaMa and would like to go
to her show the next time we go to California, so
why don't other kids. I told them that Ellen really liked kids but there was probably a rule about kids
being in the audience. Justin said, "but she has
them on her show all the time so why can't they be
in the audience".
Could we have an answer from you for his question?
Sorry about how this letter came out I love you and your show but I'm not to good on the computer.
See you tomorrow at 4:00

Love you,

Sandee

day

I was hoping to win the tv,but it took me so long to get onthe computer. I guess I blew it.
I am canadian so I probably don't qualify,but I thought I'd try it anyways. What the heck!

Hi Ellen,
Happy 2009! Congrats on People's Choice Award. Thank you so much for scheduling your show to appear before the Oprah show comes on. I used to watch your show and missed Oprah's, but today, after watching your show, I was able to see Suze Orman on Oprah's show. Suze talked about finances and offered her book for free to anyone who wanted to download it (over 200 pages!) Offer good until Jan 15 if you are interested. Or, you could just buy it for $9.99.
You and Oprah are SO GOOD for the human race!

This quiz would have been harder if you hadn't had his picture on the TV right behind him. Love the show!

Ellen, I get a big kick out of your show. I think it is just great, but you haven't talked to Gladys lately and I was wondering why. I really would like to see you have her on your show sometime if at all possible.
Thanks for your show

Ellen, I just love you and your show. I too am an animal lover. I am also writing a book, I'd love you to read it when It's published. Also your comment about panty lines. My way to prevent them is I don't wear any. Loved you on the cover of O.
