DENNIS QUAID
It’s Ellen’s show dedicated entirely to mothers! The entire audience will be filled with expectant moms who have no idea what to expect from Ellen! She has all the best gifts and giveaways that will leave them breathless! If any of the fathers need some tips, DENNIS QUAID will have them. He helped his wife through her pregnancy with their twin babies, and now the adorable kids are two years old. He’ll have the cutest stories about them that the moms will love! Then, the Grammy-winning MICHAEL BOLTON will have a special gift for us. He’ll sing his new single from his CD, “One World One Love” -- a song he wrote with the incredibly popular Lady Gaga! And AARON KELLY from “American Idol” will stop by to sing one more song. Ellen has paramedics standing by in case someone gives birth to the very first Ellen Show baby!
Tuesday, July 6
JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS
Ellen’s All Terrain Game Week is rolling on! Today more audience members compete for a chance to win a brand new GMC Terrain! Ellen has her finger on the censor button today, because her insanely funny WB neighbor JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS is stopping by. She always keeps Ellen on her toes... it seems like every time she’s around, someone gets hit in the face with a rock! Then, before CORY MONTEITH was on “Glee,” he had virtually every odd job possible -- including store greeter and school bus driver! Now he’s on the hit show and turning into a huge star, and will tell Ellen all about the excitement. Also, Ellen once got the chance to rock out with SLASH, so why can’t her friend ADAM LEVINE? The Maroon 5 frontman teamed up with the guitarist on his latest album, “Slash,” and today they’re both stopping by to perform the song “Gotten.” Plus, Ellen has put together some of her favorite moments from the show, and you’ll love it!
Wednesday, July 7
TERI HATCHER
It’s here! Today is the huge finale of Ellen’s exciting All Terrain Game Week. Ellen’s audience members have been competing for the chance to win the Grand Prize -- and today the finalists battle it out one last time! One of them will win a brand new GMC Terrain! The competition is fierce here, but it’s just as intense on “American Idol”! MICHAEL LYNCHE is stopping by to tell Ellen what it’s like to make it all the way to the Final Four -- and will give a performance you won’t forget! Then, TERI HATCHER has been married four times, been in a car accident, had her house burned down, and even shot a neighbor... all on “Desperate Housewives,” that is! It’s not ending there; they’ve been renewed for two more seasons and she’s here to tell Ellen about the excitement in store. In real life, Teri is lots of fun. Ellen has even played matchmaker for her, but Teri didn’t take her suggestion! Maybe she’ll listen to Ellen’s great suggestions today! Also, Ellen has been getting tweets from the popular band PARAMORE. They wanted to perform on the show -- and Ellen didn’t hesitate to say yes! They’ll perform a song from their latest hit album, “Brand New Eyes.”
Thursday, July 8
STEVE CARELL
Summer is finally here! Today Ellen gives you a sneak preview of all the exciting summer movies -- with some of her favorite guests! She'll be certain to look behind her chair before STEVE CARELL drops by -- the last time he was here he did this. In addition to being the only one who has ever scared Ellen, no one can make her laugh like Steve, and she never knows what to expect from him! Steve is both a huge television star AND movie star, and now he has a new movie out this summer, “Despicable Me.” Then, another one of the most anticipated summer films is the next chapter in the Twilight series, “Eclipse,” and NIKKI REED is starring in it. The lucky actress gets to act with gorgeous guys Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner and Kellan Lutz, and she'll tell Ellen all about it! Ellen also has a huge surprise for one lucky audience member -- tickets to the “Eclipse” premiere! And, it's hard to think of two bigger legends in music than JAMES TAYLOR and CAROLE KING, and it doesn't get better than the two of them together! Their summer tour is sold out, but you can see them right here on the show. They'll sing one of their hit songs from their new album, “Live at the Troubadour.”
Friday, July 9
LEE DEWYZE
It's been an exciting first season for Ellen on “American Idol”! There's only one place the winner would go -- right here to visit Ellen! Today both CRYSTAL BOWERSOX & LEE DEWYZE are stopping by to tell Ellen what the experience has been like. And of course, they'll both get a chance to give one more performance! Then, if you've been in the audience, you've met Ellen's warm-up guy, TOM RILES. He always keeps the energy going, which is hard with a newborn baby at home! When his daughter was born, she had a health scare and had to be rushed into surgery. Now she's healthy and Tom will share the experience with Ellen. You don't want to miss this heartwarming story!

Monday, June 21
CHRIS O’DONNELL
There’s nothing worse than a Bad Paid-For Photo, but there’s nothing better than bringing one to Ellen! She’s got another group of audience members showing off their hilarious photos -- and you’ll get to see how they’ve changed! CHRIS O’DONNELL hasn’t changed -- he’s always been a great actor! He’s also quite the family man with five young kids. If that weren’t keeping him busy enough, he’s also in “NCIS: Los Angeles” -- and will share all the details with Ellen. Also, “The Bachelor” was full of scandals and surprises, but no one can forget last season when Jason proposed to MELISSA RYCROFT -- and then changed his mind! She revealed everything in the “20/20” special, “Inside the Bachelor: The Stories Behind the Rose,” but not before visiting Ellen first! Plus, Ellen has more behind-the-scenes fun from “American Idol”!
Tuesday, June 22
KIRSTIE ALLEY
She was on one of the most successful sitcoms ever, but now everyone seems to focus only on KIRSTIE ALLEY’s weight. That’s fine with her, because she’s starring in a hilarious reality show where she opens up about her struggle and vows to get healthier! Fortunately, Kirstie won’t get fired from her own show, like CYNDI LAUPER was fired from “Celebrity Apprentice.” She is here to share all the behind-the-scenes details with Ellen. And from one of the biggest shows of the year, MATTHEW MORRISON is dropping by to tell Ellen everything about “Glee!”
Wednesday, June 23
HOWIE MANDEL
Katie Stevens made it far on “American Idol,” but she was eventually eliminated. Now she’s here to give one last performance after chatting with Ellen! Now that Ellen has been a judge for a while, she’ll have a lot of tips for HOWIE MANDEL. He’s a judge on “America’s Got Talent” and he’s sure to have everybody laughing. Howie has always appreciated gifts from Ellen -- especially the hermetically sealed inflatable ball he can walk around in! Then, we’ve watched TORI SPELLING & DEAN MCDERMOTT’s relationship grow through some tough times on their reality show, and today they're stopping by to give us a sneak peek at what’s happening on the latest season! With two young kids, there’s sure to be drama. And this season of “Dancing with the Stars” began with a surprise elimination, so none of the contestants feel safe -- including *****cat Dolls lead singer NICOLE SCHERZINGER and her partner, DEREK HOUGH. They’ll show Ellen they’ve got what it takes to win -- when they perform right here.
Thursday, June 24
WANDA SYKES
Today is all about the Earth, and Ellen is dedicating her show to our planet -- and you! The hilarious WANDA SYKES is here for the 10th time, and Ellen is ready to celebrate the occasion. Wanda’s twin babies just turned one year old, and we’re sure she has her hands full! Then, EVAN LYSACEK has brought his gold-medal-winning skating moves to the dance floor -- and makes it look easy. He has a great partner in ANNA TREBUNSKAYA, and they’re stopping by to chat with Ellen and perform a dance. Also, a lot of contestants were voted off “American Idol” this past season, but that doesn’t mean it’s the end of the road for them. They only need to look at former contestant JASON CASTRO, who is about to release his debut album. He’ll stop by to perform his hit song, “That’s What I’m Here For.” And you’ll want to pay attention to Ellen’s tweets. You may find yourself talking with Ellen live -- and winning huge prizes
Friday, June 25
JENNIFER LOPEZ
After the last time JENNIFER LOPEZ was here, Ellen might need to start padding the set! We’ll see if she trips when she visits today to talk about her movie, “The Back-Up Plan.” She’s also focusing a lot on being a mother -- her twins are already two! Then, for the first time ever, the incredible NORAH JONES is stopping by. She’s performing a song from her latest CD, “The Fall.” Also, the very cute TIM URBAN was a fan favorite on “American Idol,” but was eventually voted off. He’ll be here today to chat with Ellen and perform. Then, Ellen is always looking for the next best game, and she may have found it! Today she’s introducing a hilarious new game that might be the most fun -- and most complicated -- ever!

| Another Book on the Way From Ellen Degeneres |  NYtimes.com reports: "The book publishing industry may be in a slump, but not when it comes to celebrity authors. The comedian and talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has signed a deal with Grand Central Publishing, part of the Hachette Book Group, to write her third book, “a look at her life through her humor,” the publisher said on Sunday. The book is scheduled for publication in the fall. “I found that between my talk show, ‘American Idol’ and my late-night blogging, I didn’t have enough ways to express myself,” Ms. DeGeneres said in a statement. Her first two books were best sellers."

Everyone has fun when Ellen is on vacation -- including you! She’s taking the show to Universal Orlando Resort and has lots of plans. She brought her favorite game, Know or Go, and added an exciting new twist -- today’s contestants better know how to swim! Then, Ellen will get the entire Universal City Walk moving when USHER performs. He’ll sing a song from his CD, “Raymond v. Raymond,” before sitting down to chat with Ellen.

It’s Ellen’s second day at Universal Orlando Resort, and she’s having a blast! Ellen’s been having fun around the park, and she’ll show you everything she’s been up to. Here to heat things up is the sexy MARIO LOPEZ. Ellen knows the best way to cool him off from the hot Orlando sun -- get him wet! He’s busy hosting both “Extra” and “America’s Best Dance Crew,” and he brought the dance crew SALTARE with him. Joining in on all the fun is one of Ellen’s favorite bands, RASCAL FLATTS. They have a lot to celebrate -- this summer they'll mark 10 years together! Everyone will be up and dancing when they perform two of their hit songs.

SHEMAR MOORE
Ellen is lucky to have SHEMAR MOORE on the show today! Last summer, he was hit by a car while on his bike and could have been killed! Fortunately, he’s all healed and back to work on “Criminal Minds.” Shemar is looking better than ever, which means Ellen will keep trying to get his shirt off for you! Then, the beautiful EMILY DESCHANEL is stopping by. Ellen will have the champagne ready -- Emily’s show “Bones” celebrated 100 episodes, and Emily will share all the excitement today. Also, you’ve learned the best recipes from Ellen’s personal chef, ROBERTO MARTIN. Now he’s back to teach us another great meal that you’ll love! And three of Ellen’s audience members better have a story that Ellen loves -- or else they’re getting dropped when Ellen plays another round of the hilarious Mo’ or Go!
Thursday, June 10
MARTIN LAWRENCE
Just like Ellen, MARTIN LAWRENCE started as a stand-up comedian. Now he’s starring in huge movies like “Death at a Funeral.” The hilarious guy is stopping by to tell Ellen all about it.

EVA LONGORIA PARKER
The last time EVA LONGORIA PARKER was here, almost four years ago, she told Ellen that “Desperate Housewives” was going to be her last television show. Fortunately for us, the show keeps going -- and she’s back today! Quite a bit has changed for Eva since then; she’s now married to basketball player Tony Parker. Also, a little while ago, Ellen showed this video of the Irish singing family CRYSTAL SWING and it got quite the reaction! Now they’re here today, and hopefully they brought the tequila!

PAMELA ANDERSON
The producers of “Dancing with the Stars” had to be prepared for anything -- PAMELA ANDERSON competed this season! Ellen can never predict what she’ll do here; one time she flipped over the couch and another time she stripped down to a bikini! We’ll find out what she’ll do today when she visits with her dance partner, DAMIAN WHITEWOOD. Then, Ellen will welcome CHEF JOSÉ ANDRÉS to teach everyone a delicious recipe. His restaurant in L.A. was awarded a rare four stars by the L.A. Times -- so the food is bound to be amazing! Also here is the very cute jazz musician JAMIE CULLUM. He’ll be putting an unbelievable new twist on a popular hit when he sings “Don’t Stop the Music” -- you don’t want to miss it! And Ellen will feature another group of audience members with amazing hidden talents you have to see to believe!
Tuesday, June 1
TAYE DIGGS
A few months ago, a school in Mississippi cancelled their school prom because CONSTANCE McMILLEN wanted to bring her girlfriend. She stood up for her right to bring a same-sex date, and today she’s here to tell Ellen everything that’s happened. Then, the competition was tough on “American Idol” this season, and LACEY BROWN knows that first-hand. She’s stopping by to share the experience and sing one more time. When TAYE DIGGS was last here, his baby was just 6 weeks old! He’s back today and Ellen wants to hear all the adorable stories. He’ll also share the latest on his show, “Private Practice.” Plus, CHELSEA HANDLER is sure to answer Ellen’s questions honestly -- and then some!

Wednesday, June 2
BETTY WHITE
He’s suave, he’s sexy, and he’s on the show -- PIERCE BROSNAN is visiting Ellen today. He’s more than just a good looking guy -- he’s also quite the family man, and even won a Young Hollywood Award for being a Hollywood role model! Then, after 500,000 joined a Facebook group begging for it, BETTY WHITE hosted “Saturday Night Live!” It’s been almost four years since she’s been here, so Betty and Ellen have a lot of catching up to do! Also, Ellen has been introducing you to great musicians from all across the world, and today she invited MELANIE FIONA to perform her Grammy-nominated song, “It Kills Me.” And Ellen is still giving away trips to Universal Orlando Resort.

Thursday, June 3
KRISTIN CHENOWETH
Ellen’s friend KRISTIN CHENOWETH is so funny and incredibly talented. She’s an amazing actress, and now she’s returning to the Broadway stage in the musical “Promises, Promises.» Ellen feels she helped Kristin get there, since Kristin starred in “Ellen: The Musical”! Or it may have been her role in “Wicked.” Kristin always seems to have a new story about her hair -- last time she told Ellen how she accidentally lit it on fire! Ellen will have the fire extinguisher ready before the interview. Then, THE BIRD AND THE BEE have had two successful albums and their music has been featured in a variety of movies and television shows. Now, with their new album, they’re paying tribute to the classic group Hall & Oates and will perform one of their greatest hits today.
Friday, June 4
GERARD BUTLER
It’s hard to believe that GERARD BUTLER could be any sexier, but he’s become even hotter since his last time on the show! If looks aren’t enough for you, how about the fact that he saved a stranger’s life? He once saved a boy from drowning! When he’s not saving lives, he’s hard at work... he was just in two movies; “The Bounty Hunter” and “How to Train Your Dragon,” but he made sure to find time to visit Ellen! Plus, Ellen has been introducing you to new music all month long and she has another great artist on the show today. DIANE BIRCH is here to perform “Valentino” from her album “Bible Belt.”
