Ellen DeGeneres talks to Gladys Hardy

February 4, 2009 @ 12:46 pm

Ellen DeGeneres had a very funny old lady named Gladys Hardy call in to her show to suggest some rearrangements on the set. Ellen apparently like the caller so much that she called Gladys back, and the resulting conversation on the phone is very funny. I really hope Gladys becomes a regular on the Ellen show because that lady is good. Real good.

ROFL: Ellen DeGeneres uses a Hawaii Chair

ROFL. Ellen DeGeneres ordered a Hawaii Chair from Perfect USA and used it on live TV. [via]

Watch as Ellen attempts to sit seriously at the chair while pouring a glass of water, answering the phone, writing notes, and just “relaxing”. Oh man, this chair is a hoot! Ellen pretty much uses the chair for the entire remainder of the show.

For those who don’t know, the Hawaii Chair is a chair that claims to keep you in shape while allowing you to sit down all day. Again, this is TECHNOLOGY AT ITS BEST.
