Generous DeGeneres

Posted on 27 April 2007 @ 07:39 in Women

At the special 2-hour “Idol Gives Back” charity show yesterday evening, comedian and talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres, announced on air that she was personally giving US$100,000/-.

Now the cynical part of me immediately thought “Yeah, yeah, I bet it’s tax exempted.” But does it matter? It’s still US$100,000/-. And it didn’t sound staged; she was babbling on and suddenly it came out. Plus she was looking visibly touched by the various video clips that were being shown as part of the show.

Way to go, DeGeneres.
