You know that God Telephone Gag Ellen did? She thought of that when she was depressed over her girlfriend's death in a car crash. See fact is that she just drove past the accident her girlfriend died in. She had no idea till she saw it on the news. She had it bad. And now I'm just happy for everything Ellen is experiencing now :)
No, most people knew. She came out in '97 on Time mag saying "Yep, I'm Gay". So she was just reaffirming what most people already knew by then. People knew in 1994, too. She chose the word "Yep", because everyone already assumed she was gay. It's like she was saying "Yep(you're right), I'm Gay". She just never officially announced it until 1997.
the grandma bit is still one of my all time favorite lines i think its hilarious when she said " now we dont know where the hell she is" this isnt even Ellens best, other stand up act she has here around youtube are amazing
In Desert Storm we had a rec tent with a TV, VCR and a stack of tapes, movies, whatnot. In there was Ellen DeGeneres stand up special and I watched that so many times. I liked the joke about things tasting bad, and for some reason it makes you want everyone to taste how bad it is. haha she says it better. And she kept making jokes about doing drugs, not really, yes OK I do drugs.. no no just a joke... ok yes, really I do cocaine. She's hilarious.
I watched several of her early stand-up performances repeatedly, and it was amazing. No wonder she was named "America's Funniest woman". With talent and hard work, we knew she could be so successful later. She is a national treasure.
My Lord, is that what we wore back in the 80's? I must have looked hideous. Yes, most of that routine was on her Johnny Carson debut, so what, you use your jokes as often as possible if the audience is new.
It's been week since I started loving this beautiful person and I think I'm never gonna stop!! #2021❤ and I'm here and every ellen fan should watch all her shows before Ellen show came up.❤ I love her ..
Who else noticed that she did almost the exact same monologue with just some parts cut out that she did on the johnny carson show where she had her first tv appearance
I don't know but somehow I feel she resembles Queen Of Hearts Lady Diana. Specially her hair style and her smile compels me to think in that way. She was superb pretty and still she is. Love you Ellen.
This is one segment taken from the HBO special "Women of the Night" from 1987, hosted by Martin Short. It also featured Judy Tenuta, Paula Poundstone, and Rita Rudner. It aired on July 11th, 1987.
I think it just depends on your preference on humor. I found her jokes quite funny actually and very witty. Her delivery is what makes it even better.
@Language Lab how do you know it's not their job? What if Empire is a comedian?

She's so cute and her voice is soo sweet. Love herrr
She was gorgeous.. Oh dear God, her eyes are the most beautiful i ever saw.
What I've always liked about Ellen is that she never plays "blue". her comedy is thoughtful and kinda innocent
She seems to me child at heart .. Innocent

Looks like Meg Ryan in this.
I always die at that first joke about her being an accountant as a child hahahahaha.
"we dont know where the heck she is" omg that grandma joke was amazing
This is the ellen i remember. Such beautiful eyes and a beautiful smile
So no one thought she was a lesbian before 1994?
aveuch I remember before she came out my mom would always say “I think she’s gay/She seems like she’s gay”
She came out in 1997.
Back then if a girl tried to look like a boy, usually a lez

@@fadingworld5569 Well maybe you didn't
Pants are horrible but look comfy as hell
LMAO 😂
Dunno I find her outfit pretty neat
Ellen was so pretty with great voice and humor. I love her till now. She is very special.
BTW she also adds knowledge and lessons through humor.
She still is
the grandma bit is still one of my all time favorite lines i think its hilarious when she said " now we dont know where the hell she is"

Ellen is one of the funniest & witty comedians ever. Love her sarcastic humor!

she is sooo cute... goofy n cute...and funny...
She was a hybrid of Pricess Diana and Meg Ryan. Beautiful.
I have a bad crush on her, like, a very bad crush... and I'm not a lesbian.. :p
me too....i resolve to not put a label on it ....i guess its some people....
Don't worry - the theory goes, women are emotional, so likely to be more fluid in their sexuality.
haha okay :p
You must be a guy then :P
Lilly Filly i can relate to you..
Oh God she was so cute
She said the exact same routine in the Johnny Carson show, like not the rapper or deer bit but the rest is exactly the same! X
She looks like Kristen Stewart!
I had no idea she started in standups :) She seems to be a very kind person.
the point being that nice people couldn't possibly have started in comedy:) ?
Am I the only one who thinks she looks like Meg Ryan?
Same!
Joyce Salome same
Joyce Salome maybe even a little bit like Princess Diana?
Me, too.
I watched several of her early stand-up performances repeatedly, and it was amazing. No wonder she was named "America's Funniest woman". With talent and hard work, we knew she could be so successful later. She is a national treasure.
I just watched the Carson show..she's using the same jokes :x But I still love her.
Wow Allen was so pretty 😍 ❤️
OMG! Her face hasn't changed at all! She certainly takes care of herself!
2:05am for me. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
1987 - Women of the Night special on HBO. Ellen Degeneres, Judy Tenuta, Paula Poundstone, and Rita Rudner.
Always loved Ellen!! Clean and classy!!
Her eyes 😍
Who doesn't like them
Her convo with God is so clever and funny.
Thats when her girlfriend died in a car accident and she was living in a flea infested appartment... 😭😭
i hope she sent bob newhart a check though
@@Vasciannie Wait what?
she sounds a lot like bart Simpson
Joke Braem lol not really
My Lord, is that what we wore back in the 80's? I must have looked hideous.
Yes, most of that routine was on her Johnny Carson debut, so what, you use your jokes as often as possible if the audience is new.
Yeah, this audience didn't seem as receptive. She started with some different jokes, though, so the composition has a different lead through.
i ran out of ellen shows so now im watching the old stand up its still fun though :P
Her jokes are never laugh out loud funny to me but her charisma and timing are impeccable.
Thumbs up if you thought the boy at the beggining was Ellen...Lol
1:12 so dancing HAS always been her thing. I just thought she started doing it only AFTER she started her own show.
the most expressive eyes ever seen
"Let's try that note again ... Oh, to hell with it!"
😂😂
Same jokes still funny
LAWL. She's wearing socks with flip-flops XD
I Love You Ellen

It's been week since I started loving this beautiful person and I think I'm never gonna stop!! #2021❤ and I'm here and every ellen fan should watch all her shows before Ellen show came up.❤ I love her ..
I’m always out there fighting her haters. What scam that was. Fake news
who was the guy singing at the beginning?
the hair ! the shirt ! the pants ! the shoes ! :D
Way back in the early 90's, prehistoric human hips were much higher than they are today.
"I LOVE ELLEN"
Who else noticed that she did almost the exact same monologue with just some parts cut out that she did on the johnny carson show where she had her first tv appearance
She's parachuting!
Her accent! HAHAHA! Love her.
Some of it like the beginning is from her appearance on Jonny Carson
I just watched the one on Johnny Carson and yep its the same.
love her dance moves 1:12 lol
thats the first thing i asked when i saw her lol
I don't know but somehow I feel she resembles Queen Of Hearts Lady Diana. Specially her hair style and her smile compels me to think in that way. She was superb pretty and still she is. Love you Ellen.
She looks like Meg Ryan here.
Thanks!
Damn, that was funny especially the family part

Good eye hahahaha
...because it didn't matter then and it doesn't matter now!
What year is this?
Did two minutes of Googling and this was probably in the early 80's
This is the same thing she did on the Johnny Carson show :) With a little more stuff.
