Ellen Didn’t Expect Her Guest to React Like This

Ellen is known for a lot of things; her killer dance move, her stylish outfits, her hilarious sense of humor, and best of all, her incredible generosity. It’s no secret that Ellen loves having “normal” people on her show, especially people who are going through a hard time or have done something incredible without any recognition.

The beloved talk show host takes it upon herself to reward these people or help them out of a tight spot. And usually, when these massive gifts are given, the guest of honor tends to freak.

I mean, can you blame them? Ellen just handed them a check for $10,000. I would be so hysterical they would have to remove me from the set.

But despite all the amazing and tearful reactions Ellen has seen over the years, it’s clear she hasn’t seen one quite like this.

During a 2012 taping of “The Ellen Show,” the lovely host stunned one of her biggest fans and excited audience member. Lisa was a struggling single mom who not only took care of her children but also her grandchildren.

Ellen had previously invited Lisa onto her show to surprise her with a brand new car for her and her four kids. She found the mother so charming and lovable that she decided a car just wasn’t enough.

Lisa was invited back to “The Ellen Show” for more incredible gifts, starting with a $1,000 gift card to J.C. Penny.

But if you know Ellen, you know that was far from the end of the gift giving

We don’t want to give it away – because it really is something you have to see with your own eyes – but at 3:10, the single mom has the BEST reaction to her incredible gift from Ellen. It’s so touching and genuinely hilarious, we’ve probably watched it over three times already.

To be fair, while the moment at 3:10 is SO funny, the entire interview with Lisa is hilarious. From start to end, she is just a ball of energy; you can tell she is just a genuinely good person and that she is so grateful to be up on the stage with Ellen.

And the ending? After you get over laughing at her unprecedented reaction, the end of this video will undoubtedly make you happy-cry! It definitely made us reach for the tissues, we’ll tell you that much.
