Ellen DeGeneres
Host and Executive Producer
“The Ellen DeGeneres Show”
THE LATEST: In January, DeGeneres became the second person to accept the Carol Burnett Award at the 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards. The first recipient of the award was Burnett herself. In February, "Ellen's Game of Games" game show was renewed for a fourth season on NBC.
BACKGROUND: Louisiana-born DeGeneres started as a stand-up comic with a deadpan delivery before moving to film and television. She made history with her sitcom "Ellen" in 1997, when her TV character came out as a lesbian. In 2003, she launched her long-running talk show "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." DeGeneres voiced memory-impaired fish Dory in the Pixar hits "Finding Nemo" and "Finding Dory." She has received the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. DeGeneres, who has hosted "Ellen's Game of Games" since 2018, served as host of the Oscars in 2007 and 2014.
