This week on Ellen...
Monday, August 3
JENNY MCCARTHY
Last year’s “Britain’s Got Talent” winner, 6-year-old Connie Talbot, kick-starts my week with her signature song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from her debut album. You won’t want to miss it. She even wowed Simon Cowell! Then I’ve got some really fun stuff in store for JENNY MCCARTHY! She is always game for anything I ask her to do. Plus, since I have a gorgeous girl on the show, it's only fair that SHEMAR MOORE from "Criminal Minds" stops by to even the playing field. Then, Scottish singer AMY MACDONALD, who is earning rave reviews, will perform "This Is the Life" from her debut album of the same name!
Tuesday, August 4
VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN
On Tuesday I get to interview our Vice President, JOE BIDEN! I'll ask pointed questions about the direction of our country, the economy, and a serious issue that's very close to my heart. It's a must-see interview! Last time COLIN FARRELL was here, he kissed me. (And I'm not talking a peck on the cheek.) I think he might still have a little crush. I'm a married woman now. But he does look better than ever, and the women in the audience may just melt when he heads into the crowd with a special surprise for one lucky audience member! Plus, it's samba time! TONI BRAXTON and ALEC MAZO give an amazing dance demo. And, Toni will discuss the incredible odds she faced to make it onto “Dancing with the Stars” after battling an illness.
Wednesday, August 5
KRIS ALLEN
I start the show with some incredible Hidden Audience Talents -- and I still can’t get over them! Plus, it was one of the most unpredictable “American Idol” finales ever -- and I welcome the winner, KRIS ALLEN! We’ll chat and he’ll sing for y’all, live! Also, what happens when you follow my tweets and are the first to show up at Tulane half-naked? Ask Michelle Holmes, who I named my “American Idol” Red Carpet Correspondent. Today I’ll show you the exclusive footage that you can’t see anywhere else! Then, singer and actress double-threat MANDY MOORE will perform her new single, “I Could Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week”!
Thursday, August 6
MARCIA CROSS
Thursday, MARCIA CROSS is gonna stop by, and I hope she brings pictures of her kids! I hope they’re dressed up as a monkey and a kitty cat! She’ll explain all about “Desperate Housewives,” which is now taking place five years in the future. KYM DOUGLAS is a television host, author, and beauty expert. She’s gonna give tips on being a “recessionista” -- which she defines as a person who looks good without spending a lot of money. Then, he was born a living Legend (literally). JOHN LEGEND'S gonna perform his hit “Green Light” from his CD “Evolver.” He’s a busy guy. John also has a role in the movie “Soul Men.”
Friday, August 7
HEIDI KLUM
HEIDI KLUM has a new makeup collection. The two of us are gonna compete to see who can do a better job of putting her makeup on members of my audience… in just 45 seconds! (Did I mention that we’ll be blindfolded?) And I’m going to play back Heidi’s sexy commercial that parodies “Risky Business.” (If my censors will allow it!) Next, SEANN WILLIAM SCOTT tells me he’s single, and I think I’ll try to set him up! He also tells me about an incident he had when he worked at the L.A. Zoo. It involved a gorilla, a pinecone and an epiphany. (That’s all I can say right now.) Plus, they might not have taken home the title for “Dancing with the Stars,” but SUSAN LUCCI & TONY DOVOLANI are here to show me their amazing dancing skills! (And I still can’t imagine Susan Lucci not winning something -- of all people!)
