Holidays with Ellen

Every Tuesday a member of the Ellen staff is selected to bring in an old picture of themselves. (We call it Photo Tuesday) Today our costumer, Elise Archer, brought in a bad Santa photo of her own. Elise says, "All I know is that I wasn't keen on the idea of sitting on his lap from the moment I laid eyes on him." If you want to see more bad Santa photos, check out our bad Santa gallery.

We asked for them and you sent them in. Bags and bags of less than picture perfect Santa Photographs. Click here to see them now.

If you would like to send in your bad Santa photos, click here to submit.

When Ellen wishes everybody happy holidays, it’s important to her that she gets it just right.

You've been sending them in, and we've been showing them to you. Now it's your turn to vote for your favorite bad Santa photo!

We've added a hilarious new batch of Santa photos gone wrong to our photo gallery. Check out these pictures of visits with Mr. Claus that go ho ho horribly.

We asked you to send us your pictures of Santa gone wrong and you've responded in a big way. Click here to check out the first installment.

We will be adding more and more right up until Christmas. In the meantime, send us yours.

Today my chef, Sean, has whipped up some faux cream (non dairy) of tomato soup. I don’t know where fake cream comes from. I don’t want to know. But I’d like to say something about lactose intolerance. Can’t we all get along? If we try to understand lactose, maybe one day we can tolerate each other and it will be a better world for all of us.

For the main course, I have some crab cakes and sprouts resting comfortably on a bed of baby lettuces with raspberries for garnish. By the way, you haven’t really slept until you’ve spent the night on a bed of baby lettuces. This is the perfect lunch for me to be light on my toes when I go trick or treating later.

Happy Halloween and have a good lunch,

Ellen

J Lo Hew looks on nervously as Jennifer Lopez (Ellen) feeds her bat lunch.

Ellen is dressed as J Lo This Halloween and she insists that she's not pregnant.

Executive producer Andy Lassner hid in this hollowed out pumpkin for over 35 minutes so that he could surprise Ellen during her show. He is still pulling pumpkin seeds out of his ears.

As you can see, The folks in Ellen's control room are not waiting for October 31st to get into the Halloween spirit. They know that it's just one day to what many believe will be the best Ellen Halloween show ever!

Ellen goes trick or treating early before all the good candy gets taken and terrorizes an unsuspecting neighborhood in the process.

Halloween is almost here and as you can see, my staff are already getting into it. And if you think they are colorful now, just wait till they dress up in their costumes.

Ellen asked for them and you sent them in. Finally we see some of the funniest and most unusual costumes you viewers have ever come up with.
