Ellen DeGeneres is a popular comedian and talk show host. While contacting Ellen directly, like many other celebrities, isn’t possible, you may be able to get her attention by sending a message, photo, or video to the Ellen DeGeneres Show. You can do this either online, on Ellen’s official ellentube website, or by snail mail. You can also follow Ellen on social media to interact with messages, videos, and photos she posts.
Steps
Getting in Touch with the Ellen Show
-
1Submit an online message if you want to be part of the show. If you found a headline you’d like to share with Ellen for her segment “Correct Me If I’m Wrong,” want to show off your special skill, or just want to tell Ellen a personal story, you can get in touch with Ellen’s team by filling out an online message form on ellentube, the companion website to Ellen’s television empire. Just visit http://send.ellentv.com/be-on-the-show, select the reason why you want to get in touch with Ellen, and fill out the requested information.[1]
- To submit an online form, you’ll have to provide your name, email address, phone number, and home address in addition to the photo, video, or message you want to send.
- Try not to be discouraged if you don’t hear back right away. The Ellen Show receives lots of messages every day, and it might take them a while to read yours.
-
2Contact the Ellen Show by snail mail. If you prefer traditional means of getting in touch with people, sending Ellen a letter is also an option. Just send a stamped envelope with your return address to the following address:[2]
- The Ellen DeGeneres Show, PO Box 7788, Burbank, CA 91522.
- If you want Ellen herself to read your letter, instead of someone on the Ellen Show’s production team, be sure to make that clear in your letter.
- You can either write about something related to the show or write a personal letter to Ellen herself.
