Ellen DeGeneres is skilled at making fun of most anything, including her own health. As you may have read on TMZ, DeGeneres experienced some tightness in her chest yesterday, and before taping her show, called the paramedics to the Warner Bros. lot.

On Tuesday's show, Ellen addressed the scary incident in her monologue, assuring her loyal viewers that she was fine, while cracking several jokes about the experience of calling the paramedics.

Ellen quipped that 50 fire trucks and ambulances showed up, and that the scene was "one marching band short of a parade." She joked that the firemen broke through her office door with an axe, which was strange, considering the door was open. Ellen closed by thanking TMZ for caring so much about her health.

Check out the video after the jump, and rest assured that Ellen is doing fine.

In their personal lives, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi make an excellent team. Now, the married couple is about to find out how well they can work together.

According to Deadline, NBC has won a bidding war for a scripted comedy pilot, produced by DeGeneres and starring de Rossi, about "two dueling sisters."

The currently unnamed, multi-camera show will be written by former 'Samantha Who' creator Don Todd and marks the return to scripted TV comedy for both talents.

Ellen DeGeneres teamed with HGTV for a crossover event on 'HGTV'd' (Mon, 10PM ET on HGTV). She received a request for tickets to her show from a military family, but decided to up the ante for them. She teamed with David Bromstad and the 'HGTV'd' crew to surprise the family with a $100,000 makeover for their backyard.

Bromstad did an amazing job, creating an oasis for the family when husband Ryan is at home, and a great place for Krystal to relax when her husband is deployed overseas.

But the team didn't stop there. They went inside the house and gave the living room and bedroom a makeover as well, with all new furniture and carpeting, and even new artwork for the wall. It was a way for DeGeneres to thank Ryan for his service, and it was all the couple could do to pick their jaws off the ground and thank everyone.

A host of A-list celebrities turned out for the '2011 Teen Choice Awards' in Hollywood last night including Sean Kingston, who made his first red-carpet appearance since his jet ski accident in May.

The ceremony, which was hosted by 'Big Bang Theory' star Kaley Cuoco, aired live on Fox, and country star Taylor Swift was the big winner of the night.

She took home six surfboard trophies including the Ultimate Choice Award for her "extraordinary contributions to the entertainment industry."

Where can you find A-list Hollywood talent doing some of their wackiest work? On the Teen Choice Awards, of course!

During the '2011 Teen Choice Awards' (Sun., 8PM ET on FOX), celebs including Cameron Diaz, Ashton Kutcher, Zachary Levi, Ellen DeGeneres and Selena Gomez showed up to present awards, pick up a few trophies, and perform for a crowd of screaming, tweaked-out teens and tweens.

But the real star of the night was Justin Bieber, who sat in the crowd, but was referenced almost every five minutes by whoever was on stage at the time.

There's not much to celebrate about daytime TV these days with 'All My Children,' 'Oprah' and Regis Philbin going away, but don't tell that to the Daytime Emmys. The annual awards broadcast threw on quite a party last night on CBS.

Hosted by Wayne Brady ('Let's Make a Deal'), the show entertained with musical numbers (from Brady and Marie Osmond), had touching tributes to Oprah Winfrey, Susan Lucci and Lifetime Achievement Recipients Pat Sajack ('Wheel of Fortune') and Alex Trebek ('Jeopardy') and, if you're a soap fan, you saw some surprising wins including a tie for the directors of 'The Bold and the Beautiful' and 'The Young and the Restless.'

Read on to get the scoop from your winners and see how why the Father's Day-win was especially poignant for one trophy recipient.

"I'm on a horse." If you don't recognize these words, then maybe you haven't seen the now famous 'Old Spice' ad starring Isaiah Mustafa. Two weeks ago, 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated) featured a video made by Christian Lee that was a reenactment of the iconic ad. Now, the 11-year-old Lee appears on the show to do a live performance of the commercial ... with a little professional help.

Russell Crowe has been everywhere on TV lately to promote the May 14 release of 'Robin Hood,' but his stunt on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated) on Thursday was a standout: He taught a member of the audience how to shoot an arrow with a longbow.

It's "Inspiration Week" on 'American Idol,' which means the Idols sang inspirational songs on Tuesday, and 'Idol Gives Back' was on tap for tonight. It's truly amazing how much this charitable endeavor helps people around the globe. It's not easy to see all of the suffering going on in the world -- especially the children -- but it's really easy to pick up the phone and make a small donation that could save a kid's life.

Tonight, celebrities reported on the huge malaria problem in Africa; Save the Children; a food bank in Monrovia, Calif.; and global health, among others. At the end of the show, Simon Cowell reported that $15 million had been raised during the two hours the show aired. That's awesome. For more info and to learn how you can give, check out 'Idol Gives Back.'

Martin Short appeared Wednesday on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated), where he discussed the aging process. Here's some surprising news -- the comedian is now 60 years old.

This season has actually gone by pretty quickly for me. Top 7? That's completely nuts, yet here we are. Plus, we get a bitchin' mentor this week: Alicia Keys. The theme this week is the nebulous, "songs of inspiration," which could either be completely ridiculous or pretty cool.

Unfortunately, it's a little bit more of the former instead of the latter. I don't know what it is, but when left to basically their own devices, these guys aren't very good at picking songs. Just about everybody gave pretty much a "take it or leave it" performance. Of course, it wouldn't be 'Idol' if there wasn't a standout or two in the crowd.

Ellen DeGeneres has previously discovered some surprising information about her family tree -- she's related to pop singer Madonna, of all people. But today, on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated), guest Lisa Kudrow arrived to give DeGeneres even more unexpected details.

Larry King has interviewed some 40,000 politicians, athletes and entertainers -- basically every individual the culture's currently buzzing about. Last night on 'Larry King Live' (weeknights, 9PM ET on CNN) he spoke with 'American Idol's' judges, and it was time to get to the bottom of the Simon Cowell-Ryan Seacrest banter: Is it an act, or do they really not like each other?

Singer Katie Stevens appeared today on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' (weekdays, syndicated). The 17-year-old was kicked off 'American Idol' last week, but she seemed to be in high spirits while talking to DeGeneres. She also got to dish with DeGeneres about Simon Cowell. In her spare time -- when not hosting a talk show -- DeGeneres is also a judge on 'Idol.' So the two ladies had a lot to talk about.

This hasn't been a particularly exciting season of 'American Idol.' The addition of Ellen DeGeneres has rated a 'B-minus' at best, and that's if you're grading on a curve. The contestants have failed to create the buzz we've heard in previous seasons.

The absence of Paula Abdul as a judge has given rise to rumors that she's going to be asked back next season to bring back the 'train wreck' factor. And then there's the reality that Simon Cowell has been punching the clock, sort of sleepwalking through the competition which will be his last go round with 'Idol.'
