Earlier this week, we met a fan who
was very excited to win a box of Cheerios.
Even more excited when she realized what was inside.
Take a look.
Cheerios and I have teamed up to do one million acts of good.
And we want you to be a part of it.
Today, I put Cheerios boxes under everybody's seat.
Whoever has a golden ticket, let me know.
Raise your--
[SCREAMING]
Hi.
You know what that golden ticket means?
You have any idea?
No, but I know it's good.
Yeah.
It's real good.
You just won $10,000.
[APPLAUSE]
Thank you.
You're welcome.
So after the show, a producer spoke with her
and learned that although she was
very thankful for the $10,000, what she really wanted
was to sit in this chair next to me.
So I'm not going to deny that dream.
Come on down, Annie.
[CHEERING]
Have a seat!
Oh you want to do that?
You can.
Is that your dream too?
Yeah.
We have to do it longer than that.
OK.
Isn't that fun?
Yes.
You want to hold this?
Yes.
OK, good.
So you've been watching the show for a while, right?
Yes, I've been watching it for a really long time.
10 years.
Yeah.
Since I was 15, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh my god, I love you.
I watched you every morning.
I don't have TV or cable, but I would go on Ellen Tube,
and I would watch you and I would
be so happy to see you every morning you would make my day.
Because you're so funny and you're so compassionate.
I love you.
Oh, that's so sweet.
Well, I love you.
You're in school.
You're a student.
What are you studying?
So I just got my bachelors in December in psychology.
And I chose that because I want to understand people.
And help them--
So do I.
--the way you do.
[LAUGHTER]
It's still a learning in progress.
I'm still learning.
But ultimately, I want to become a nurse.
You do?
Yes.
And why is that?
Well watching you and the way you help people,
I want to apply that in my own way.
Because you're my idol and I love you.
And I want to do what you do.
Except in a hospital setting.
But I want to do what you do.
So and you have another--
you're sitting in the chair.
That was one of your dreams.
And the other dream is you wanted
to get scared by me, right?
Yeah.
Yeah well I can't do it now.
Because you're expecting it.
It's OK.
I know.
So maybe if I have you back, then
I'll scare you another time.
Oh my god, yes.
Yeah.
Please bring me back.
Yeah.
Well, because you love me.
Yeah I do, I really do.
Yeah.
But I like to make dreams come true.
I really do.
It's just that I can't.
[SCREAMS] Oh my god!
I love you.
All right.
So I gave you $10,000, which, Cheerios did.
They're wonderful people.
And what are you going to do with that?
So what I'm going to do is, I'm going
to help my family pay rent because we did lose our house.
Two years ago.
So that's nice to help--
Yeah.
Yes.
Because you helped me and I want to help--
[SCREAMS] Oh my god!
Is there more?
All right.
That's it.
Yeah.
The old double scare.
Oh my god.
That's not--
Now I really love you.
Yeah.
So if I scare you three times, you'd love me even more?
Oh my god.
If it's possible, yes.
Wow.
All right.
So I know you're going to help your family.
And because they lost their house
and I know that and you're staying with them
and you're trying to save money for school and everything.
So I have another gift for you.
And that is Cheerios loves your dream of being a nurse
to help people.
They want to give you another $10,000.
Oh my god.
Thank you!
[CHEERING]
Thank you.
[CHEERING]
I want to hear about your Acts of Good.
Go to my website and tell us what you're doing.
We'll be right back.
Hi I'm Andy.
Ellen asked me to remind you to subscribe to her channel
so you can see more awesome videos,
like videos of me getting scared or saying embarrassing things.
Like ball peen hammer.
And also some videos of Ellen and other celebrities,
if you're into that sort of thing.
