I didn't vote because I would vote for "indifferent." I find her boring and bland, very middle of the road humor but someone's got to fill that niche, I suppose.

Ellen is hilarious I been following her since she did stand up and I wish she would do a stand up special again that is when she at her full colors.
I have the first book of hers she did.
Ellem has went from stand up comedian to her own sitcom. Her show sitcom would have lasted longer but after she came out the show took a serious tone with little comedy. Alot say she first gay character on TV but it was actually Sandra Bernhard on Roseanne.

Next she created her own talk show and co judge on American Idol, which I enjoyed her lighten the mood on that show.

She well deserves her spot on Hollywood Walk of Fame.

If you never seen Ellen stand up here is a clip. Also on youtube there is a 4 part called here and now, watch and enjoy!

Ellen is seems truly genuine, extremely kind and equally humble; I can think of very few celebrities who come across as all three. I like that she is not afraid to show/share her emotions... she appears very 'real' with others and is think this quality is rare among celebrities.

I have come to like Ellen------she has a good heart and I feel she genuinely cares about people.

Her show is fun to watch and I enjoy the fact that can also take a shot at herself-----the fact that she does, shows her humanity and true decency.

I find her show a great way to unwind and relax------she doesnt push the political angle too far, and for an afternoon talk show I find that fine. Although I dont necessary always agree with her, I find that I respect her very much,and have grown to admire her tremendously.

I've always liked Ellen since she first started out. I just do not "do" daytime tv.

I voted yes, because I like her sense of humor, her quickness, her intelligence, and her warmth. That said, I never watch her program. There's something about afternoon talk shows that I can never get over. Too much noise, too much fake excitement. Works my nerves. Anything with a live audience always reminds me of a game show. "Come on down!!" No, stay up there.

Yes. She actually is selfless. She's capable of clean humor (even though I roll much further in the other direction as far as humor goes). She's very giving and caring. She provides attention for normal people that would otherwise never be discovered. She married Portia! She's badass. The end.

I can't stand that dark haired lil girl! I think she's going to grow up extremely snotty and spoiled in a very unattractive way. The blondie is cute, but of course, she doesn't really do anything but look cute. haha
