Ellen!!! Hey!!! I sent you an email today. You crack me up with your humor and your dancing. I laughed so hard at Kaley Cuoco when she was talking about practicing with the shake weight..... your facial expressions are to die for... lol. Well - I was trying to send you an email and see if you can help me get 2 tickets to your Orlando show. My mom and I just love you, we watch you everyday. We always call each other everyday to discuss your show and your dancing. We are about 45 mins from Orlando, and my mom says something about you being there every chance she gets. It is hard for her to get out(arthritis in her knees) but she is determined to see you. I can't find a way to get tickets anywhere. Please help me. I sent you a picture of us in the email I sent you. :) Hope to hear from you. Love Ya.
Hi, Ellen.
I have written you several emails through the years but have never received a reply. :(
I have seen all of your shows. If I am at work, I tape your show. I am a Labor and Delivery nurse (hence the email address-plus a big Gator fan).
Ellen, what does it take to get a ticket to your Orlando show? Every year, as soon as you make the announcement of coming to Florida, I immediately request tickets (2) but never get them.
I think you are a wonderful person and would love to be in your audience. I appreciate all the humanitarian thing you do to help those in need from animals, individuals who have fallen in bad times, and expecially disaster victims. I love your humor, spirit, and love for your mom (I lost mine in '87 - she was my best friend).
I will be driving down from Jacksonville and at least will try to get in the "Riff Raff Room". Hope to see you and Portia there... maybe on the Hulk! I also love to ride roller coasters! :) If I don't get to see y'all, have a wonderful visit and maybe next time. Almost didn't have this opportunity since 2 weeks ago I was driving on a Florida road and swerved to miss a deer bolting from the left and hit a bridge instead, totaling my car. Thankfully, I only received a sprained middle finger and concussion but have been unable to work until my finger heals ... necessary in my work ... my eyes!
Take care Ellen and hopefully our paths will cross someday. :)
By the way, I think one of the funniest moments is Sherry Sheppard on the luge and bobsled!
Welcome to sunny Florida!
Joy :)
HI ELLEN!
We live near Orlando and would LOVE to come see you at Universal. My daughter and I watch your show all the time and now my little boy who is 9 months old is watching with us too (though he doesn't have much of a choice).
My daughter Georgia is 9 and has autism. She runs around the house singing your theme song and shaking her booty... "Give a little love today....." She also repeats the line "and here she is now...Ellen DeGeneres!" She also know you as "Dory" from Finding Nemo who we LOVE too. WE WANT A FINDING NEMO 2!!!!
You are a bright spot in the world and inspire people to want to be better to our fellow man. Anyway,Hope to see you in the beautiful sunshine state!
All my love

Hi Ellen!!! I've been watching your show for years, it has helped me overcome many obstacles in my life and helped mold me into the young woman I am today. There is not a minute i go without smiling. I recently moved to Florida from Pennsylvania and would love to find out how I can get a chance to finally get tickets to come and see you live!! With or without I will be @ Universal Studios trying to catch a peep! Please let me know if there is any way to obtain a pair! xx Aimee
Hi Ellen, I see you are going to be in Orlando again, we have huge dreams of being at one of your shows. I would love to scrap together the $'s to go to Florida but only if we were fortunate enough to get tickets to your show. Can you tell me if there is any way for us to get some ??
I love your show, its the best !!!
thanks
Debbie
Ellen,
My daughter Sydney will turn sixteen April the 15th.She is a huge fan and watches your show everyday after school. My husband and I can not afford a car at this time.I think coming to the show in Orlando would be a great surprise for her. I would love to have three tickets.We live in Alabama and would make the drive.

Hi Ellen- My name is Katherine Shaw and I live in NY. Since I have been working from home lately I have to turn to channel 4 everyday at 4pm; my 7 yr old and 11 yr old are also hooked. I am not writing to ask for anything, just wanted to tell you that I love what you do for the people- you are amazing. Not only the amazing gifts but the the love and caring. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO! May God continue to bless you and your family... Hugs and kisses!
Hi Ellen
so really who dose'nt love your show only a crazy person would nt love you you make everyone laugh dance smile the hole time your on its the best part of my day anyway.............
Ellen, I was one of the fortunate one's to be able to request tickets for the Universal Florida show, as of today I have not received a call saying I was picked for tickets, but I hope to soon....My son Hunter loves your show and rushes home from school everyday to turn it on. He says you will be mad if he misses it. I notice you have a "14" year old audience policy. If we get called can you please make an exception... If he can not attend the show can he at least meet you. He has told me several mornings that he dreamed last night he was on your show...it would make him the happiest child on earth.
Hi Ellen,
I watch your show every day if I am home,(which is most the time). Actually, my teenage son's watch with me too. My oldest son, (who is 16)is a look-a-like Justin Bieber. People have asked for his autograph before. Well, I watched your show today and your song today was, "Born This Way" by Lady Gaga. I am a big fan and would love to go to your show and see the new Harry Potter exhibit at Orlando. I would love to take my husband, he definitely needs a destresser. I know we would never get to Orlando otherwise 'cause it is so expensive. I would love to see you!
Your faithful watcher,
Brenda
Hi Ellen,
Iam writing to you today. To let you know iam a disabled person. I have a heart and lung problem, I watch and enjoy your show every day. My girlfriend came from massachusetts to take care of me. And she has never been to universal, and I cant afford to take her and would love to be able to do just that. While there, to be able to see your show would be my wish come true. I was watching on Thursday 3/3/11. And the song that you danced to was Running Away. Thank you so much for all your laughter, you cheer me up.

Hi Ellen- we plan on being in Florida to go to Spring training camp-baseball on the 28th but will be there until the 1st of April. My son is Autistic and loves any roller coaster ride unfortunately I do not and so he usually has to go alone. How great would it be to have someone like you on the ride with him. That Harry Potter Dragon ride looks perfect for him and I bet he would even try the Hulk although it scares me to death. I am currently a retired teacher and did so to take care of my son once he graduated from high school. Thank you for considering us.I actually have time to watch you everyday and when I retired the one would they used for me was-DANCE!!
Dear Ellen,
As I watched your show this evening after my husband went to bed. I was again touched by your
generosity when you gave someone a car and 10,000
dollars. I am writing to on behalf of my husband. He is an attorney and you would think that we would be doing well but he is a real estate attorney. His business has been very slow for over a year. I am coming out of retirement to teach again but have had some medical problems so these plans have been delayed. I work part-time taking care of a special needs child.
My husband has never been to Universal or Disney World so when I heard you were going back
to Universal I thought why not write to you. I have never done anything like this before in my life but my husband has been so stressed I thought he could use a treat. I am sure there are people a lot worse off than us but our spirits
sure would be lifted if you happen to have two extra tickets you could spare for us.
I will continue to enjoy your show daily. It
brightens my day. Thank you for making a difference in our world.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Tucker

Dear Ellen,
I'm retired and enjoy watching your show every day of the week...My wife and I are facinated by your sense of humor and clever wit. We would be thrilled to be able to visit Universal Studios with you...my wife won't ride roller coasters with me and you're my only hope to not ride alone.
You're truly an awesome person...Hope to hear from you soon!
Hi Ellen,
I have tried for the past 5 years to get tickets to bring my mom to your show in universal. She has alzheimers but so much enjoys watching your show each day. If there is any way we can have two tickets, that would be great. Thank you, you are the best, we love you!
hi ellen
i can't lie to you and say i see everyone of your shows, though i do tape them all. but i am being truly honest when i tell you that you are a hero to my kids and i. with what we see on t.v. now days you are a Godsend and it is so refreshing to see a truly good human being treating others with such kindness. that being said...i would love to be in your audience while you are in orlando. i'd could even be one of your riff-raft! i turn 50 on april 2nd and it would definitely be a memorable day for me. i know you have alot of others that may have better reasons to attend your show, but it never hurts to ask, right?
enjoy orlando. we love you!

Just wondering usually after you announce your coming to florida the link for tickets is closed within a few days but it is showing as still open? Its been over a week and wondering if you picked who will be able to attend and when can we expect to hear something....usually you send an email to let everyone know if they did not get chosen but inviting them to be part of the orlando walk riffraff but that has not come either...really excited.... its been years since we have been lucky enough to be picked but that was way back when you did three taping in 3 days...
Dear Ellen,
My mother-in-law is 75 years old and has wanted to come see you for ever! We tried to get tickets for your show in LA, but didn't make it. We now live in central-east Fl, and we are trying again.
"Mom" watches your show everyday, whether it's new or a repeat, and repeatedly says " one day I'll be in Ellen's audience!" Please help me make her dream come true. This is the one thing that I can try to do for her to make up for ALL that she has done for us.
She is not only my mother-in-law, but she's my best friend as well! Hope we can make it this time!
Thanks for being the inspiration that you are!
Your loyal viewers,
Patti and Marta
