Ellen's seriously injured, but the show goes on

by Anna Johns, posted May 1st 2007 8:02AM

ellen degeneresEllen DeGeneres is one hell of a trooper. Or she's crazy. You decide.

DeGeneres seriously injured her back over the weekend and is under doctor's orders not to get out of bed. So... she's going to conduct interviews from a hospital bed on her set. Her first guest is Ryan Seacrest and that bedridden interview will air today. She's also expected to explain what happened to her.

Not sure if it's because we're in sweeps, because Ellen loves her show, or because she's trying to outdo the recent Rosie O'Donnell/Elisabeth Hasselbeck news, but she's not letting anything sideline her. Take that, Regis!

*UPDATE: Ellen says she hurt her back while trying to pick up her dog. Isn't it crazy how something so simple can lead to major pain? People has photos of the bed-ridden host.

What can I say except that Mz. Ellen is one of the finest ladies I have ever watched on TV. She is talented, kind, generous and giver and that means she gives her all. She is just a plain good person and loves people and loves to help one and all..Bless her for doing her show on a hospital bed with such a serious injury...Go for it Ellen, luv ya...
