This chick, Ellen... she just annoys me. Her voice is so high-pitched and I hate her whiny babbling schtick. Now she's schilling for JCPenney and I just want to scream every time I hear her.

They really need to give Ellen a rest. I find her voice annoying, just as you said, and she's not even funny. My mom used to watch her show and it was one of the most boring anti-humorous things I've ever had the displeasure of seeing. I reckon the only reason she's considered 'entertaining' and 'funny' is because she's openly lesbian.

I used to know her, and have seen her perform live many times---50, 100 times, I dunno---back in the early 80s. She wasn't a particularly friendly person (though not nasty), but her stand-up was quite good. I don't begrudge her her success. I don't watch her show, but from what I've seen of her, she seems true to form. Even her commercials are totally congruous with the humor she displayed 30 years ago.
And, no, she didn't earn it by being a lesbian. She's a natural entertainer.

I think these commercials are stupid and annoying. I know Ellen has a lot of fans, but I don't find her funny in the least, And can somebody tell me what's with the "anywayyyy...." after she mentions the airline on her show?

I've never had anything against Ellen, but - I see very little TV nowadays (thanks to recordings), and almost every time I do see even one hour of TV, there's a commercial or a promo with her! That gives me some idea of how much exposure to her the rest of you get! And for me, that's about all it takes to want to stop seeing someone or something.

Actually, these commercials are the closest I can come to stomaching her. They're tolerable, not too bad.

Actually, people tend to put the fact that she's a lesbian on the backburner. They just find her natuarally funny, adorable, and entertaining.

My name is Donathan, pronounced the same way you pronounce Jonathan, except with a D.😀 Hitting on a Lesbian who speaks to you and about you like trash means you're REALLY desperate! 😀

Why? She's in a loving partnership and is a success in her business. How is that disgraceful?

I suspect that being politically correct is a part of why she's being used by JCP.

I just wonder what JCP plans to do when "Black Friday" comes around. They're saying "no more door-busters", but will they still hold the line when the competition is opening at midnight?
