Ellen DeGeneres is a beloved lesbian and gay icon and entertainment pioneer, with a distinctive comic voice which has resonated with audiences from her first stand-up comedy appearances through to her work today on television, and in film and print. With her hit syndicated talk show, 'The Ellen Degeneres Show' and her high profile marriage to actress Portia DeRossi making her one of the most visible and influential lesbians in the world, Ellen has taken the time to tell us about her life, with her trademark candour and humour.
Along with the more well documented moments, she reveals some unexpected facts, including that she had worked as a vacuum-cleaner saleswoman and an oyster shucker in New Orleans before she got her start in comedy.
