Ellen DeGeneres: April 2008 Archives

This clip is hilarious. After seeing it, I'm not sure Neil Patrick Harris' head is still attatched to his body!

Neil Patrick Harris is hitting the talk show circuit hard promoting "Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantamino Bay" which opens Friday. But he spent more time talking about "American Idol" on yesterday's Ellen DeGeneres show saying that he is most impressed with David Archulleta who "I think will sell a trillion albums." He also defended arrogant judge Simon Cowell saying: "I think he's the coolest judge ever...Paula (Abdul) talks and talks and talks and talks."

But Ellen took issue with some of Simon's rudeness such as when he told Carly Smithson that she was dressed horribly: "He doesn't have to be personal and he doesn't have to attack and say, 'You're forgettable.'"

Well said Ellen!

Sen. Hillary Clinton musta read in Out Magazine that Ellen DeGeneres heads the list of the 50 most powerful gay folks because the presidential hopeful paid yet another visit to Ellen's daytime chatfest on Monday. Here's a clip from the appearance:

Ellen DeGeneres, who famously came out in 1997 with a "Yep, I'm Gay" Time Magazine cover, was named by Time Magazine as THE most powerful gay person on its second annual list of the top movers and shakers. The mag has Anderson Cooper in the number three slot even though he's never come out publicly on a magazine cover or anywhere else that I know of!

Some the people I'm especially glad to see included: Brian Graden (15), Greg Berlanti (19) Rosie O'Donnell (31), Lorri Jean (38) and Martina Navratilova (46).

Here is a LINK to the complete list.
