You are such a funny, strong, intelligent and loving person Ellen and I'm so glad that JCPenny stood up to those women who disrespected you and your values! I will make sure that I visit them again soon too because I stand behind anything that you do and anyone who stands behind you too. Stay strong and proud of who you are because you are beautiful!!

Posted by Heather Tucker | February 13, 2012 10:36 PM

Right on Ellen! I knew you would tell em like it is. I to stand for everything you believe in. JCPenny's is one of my favorite stores. I will just have to make it my most favorite store now. : )

Hey Ellen, It's 12 days by mail lady here, Really? people need to get a grip. Like you say be KIND to one a nother. Can't we all just get along? Take care Love you.

Ellen, I watch you every day with my children Mary Catherine 8 and Christopher 4 we LOVE you. You're Awesome. You do so many wonderful things for so many and for our animal friends too. Thankyou!!I have been a long time customer of J.C. Penny and will continue to be. I started shopping with them when I lived in North Carolina in the early 80s. When I moved back to Mass I shopped with them online.I now have stores near me and shop ther often. If there is anyone that doesn't have a store near them go to the web site and order online they deliver very quickly. I am so proud of Penny's for standing up to such nasty BULLIES. Keep up all the GREAT work you do. Sherri Duggan Sullivan and Family

Ellen,
I have watched and loved your show(s) for years. Your a wonderful person and you do so much good. You bring smiles and hope to everyone. I love JC Penney and will continue to shop with them even more now. I went to the million moms facebook page to let them know how I feel and they must have pull all comments because there is nothing posted there now. Hope they will leave you and Penney's alone, the bad thing I noticed on their facebook page, seems they put down more than they lift up.

Posted by denise dillon | February 13, 2012 7:36 AM

I am such a fan of yours, and appreciate all you stand for as an individual.....love your mother too......definitely applaud JCP for their stand. Keep smiling and dancing.

Posted by Catherine McCarthy | February 13, 2012 4:32 AM

Ellen, you are a wonderful human being, and I am proud to be your fan. Shouldn't a group proclaiming themselves to be One Million Moms be ashamed that they are teaching their children prejudice and shame. What disgraceful parents they must be to promote such negative and socially harmful ideas in our future voters and decision makers. Enough of that-wanna go to Penney's? I have great email discounts.

Posted by Eileen Carlson | February 12, 2012 10:27 PM

Ellen Your an amazing person and here in Australia my friends and I admire you very much, after those comments if we had a J.C. Penny Store here I and so would my friends go and shop there.
It's strange how minority groups seem to think they can dictate to the rest of us.

Posted by Antonia | February 12, 2012 8:53 PM

Way to go...Ellen Ive followed and loved you since the very beginning I even have some of your books Our values are the same and I too rescue animals (40 years now) I think you and JC Penney are a perfect match ...We all just need to remember to "banish" the negative stuff as there is so much "positive" You are one of the best people I know Keep up the good show and good works

Posted by carol | February 12, 2012 8:17 PM

Ellen,

I appreciate you for all the good that you do! You are always helping people who are so deserving. And your love of animals and supporting shelters who save lives every day is so important (go Halo and Freekibble.com!).

JCP is a great store, one of the few that has truly stood the test of time. I applaud them for standing their ground and will continue to shop there. Thank you for who you are and what you represent!

Posted by Jackie | February 12, 2012 8:12 PM

Way to go Ellen :)

Posted by Anonymous | February 12, 2012 7:31 PM

Ellen...I am a 70 year old WASP...OK, that's getting to be a minority now too...and I agree with you, honesty, integrity, and treating everyone with respect are more than good values.

We have been JCP shoppers for more years that you have been born, and now that you are aligned with them, we will shop there even more. Mr. James Cashmore Penney would stand hand in hand with you if he were still here, so YOU GO GIRL...you are a winner in our book.

Posted by Norma Shaw | February 12, 2012 4:23 PM

It's a shame that some people have NOTHING to do. If you choose to stop shopping at Penney's,SO BE IT !!! Get a life or maybe you should find a REAL CAUSE to "get on the bandwagon" for. Do something to HELP other people and stop the abuse of children and elders, and stop racial and sexual discrimination - now, those are real bandwagons to hop on !!!

Good for JC Penny for selecting a spokesperson who stands and represents what humanity SHOULD BE! I have never shopped at JC before, but am now committed to buy all my purchases at this store because of the respect and support I have for Ellen! I hope all of Ellen's fans will do the same. Kudos to Bill O'Reilly for speaking out and verbalizing his support for Ellen! (I didn't even know where the closest JC was located-- I do now-- headed there tomorrow! :). Ellen, you're the best! JC Penny, thank you for not acquiescing! :)

Posted by Lainey Rogers | February 12, 2012 1:16 PM

let's not give them our energy!!

Posted by DEBBIE PHELPS | February 12, 2012 1:15 PM

Ellen I think you are such a wonderful person, and I stand for the same values that you have. You are the kind of person I would want my children to learn from, and I am worried about what kind of children that will mature from these "million moms". Good for you and JC Penny, and since I am from Canada, I will make sure on my next visit to the U.S. to stop by JC Penny and have a look!

Posted by Roxanne Spence | February 12, 2012 12:52 PM

Dear Ellen,
I am 80 years old and have bought from JC Penny
for all my life. My Parents and my whole family
shopped there.We were a family of 12.My parents
and 10 children.Sadly there is only four of us left. My mom dressed us well from Pennys.I had
3 brothers and six sisters.Now only 3 sisters.
Oldest sister is in a Golden Living home,she is 90. I also bought our things from Pennys.My husband(now deceased) and my 3 children and their
families were also customers as were my nieces and their families.
I think you are a wonderful spokesperson for
JC Penny, and wish you the best of everything
because you are so giving to people that needs so much.I watch you every day.

Posted by Evelyn J Williams | February 12, 2012 12:00 PM

I was happy to see that JCPenney had chosen you as their spokesperson and elated when they stuck by their decision in spite of the uproar.
I admire the work you do for the less fortunate and the animal kingdom. I also admire you for keeping yourself above the fracas (as hard as that can be at times). You're one exceptional lady....hugzzzz
