I've known you a super, super long time.
And we can sit here and talk for nine hours.
But tell everybody how we first met.
How I remember it was like--
Because I remember it differently.
-- OK, OK.
[LAUGHTER]
I really think it was right after Modern Family started.
And I somehow got your email.
Uh-oh.
And I just emailed you out of the blue saying,
"I'm a gay person who's on TV too."
[LAUGHTER]
Let's be friends.
Yeah.
[LAUGHTER]
And then we had a double date with my husband, Justin,
and Scotty, and you.
And we all went to sushi.
That's right.
And then we went home with the others husband.
That's right.
[LAUGHTER]
That's right.
No, we did not do that.
Dear Ellen show.
I'm offended.
You're going to be a new--
you're going to be a new dad, right?
I am.
Yeah.
He's going to be a new dad!
[CHEERING]
Yeah.
That's so exciting.
I think I probably just saw how you made it.
You'd hopped in the bed, and, is that?
That's how it started.
Oh!
No, they're looking at this.
Oh!
[LAUGHTER]
See behind you?
Look behind you.
I see now.
Now I see what they're all-- that's what the reaction was.
I thought it was like because I was in bed with tWitch.
[LAUGHTER]
No.
Has it been something you're thinking about?
Like, how long have you been planning?
How did you come to the decision?
So it's trickier with a gay couple.
Because you can't just like try.
[LAUGHTER]
You have to like, really try.
[LAUGHTER]
You can't just be like, we stopped using protection.
We'll see what happens.
Dear Ellen Show.
I am offended.
[LAUGHTER]
It was a process.
And we've been in the process for like--
I'm trying to figure out how to say this.
For like a year and a half.
Yeah.
And you know, we had a few times it wasn't successful.
But we're really excited.
The baby's due in July.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
So exciting.
Yeah.
That's super cool.
Yeah.
Do you want kids?
I love that you asked me.
You know, Scotty and I always talk about having kids.
You know, none of us are 100%.
I read a quote from a woman a long time ago, which I love.
She said, "I'd rather regret not having kids
than have them and regret it later."
[LAUGHTER]
That's a very good point.
Now I'm rethinking everything.
But good luck.
Yeah, yeah.
But you go ahead.
Yeah.
You go ahead.
I'll come visit for five minutes.
Exactly.
No, I actually love children.
But no, we talked about it.
We're still thinking about it.
But tell me about Modern Family.
Such a huge fan.
It's been on for 11 seasons.
And it ends this year.
[CHEERING]
Will and Grace was 11 right?
Will and Grace was 11 broken up.
Right.
But you had a nice little break in between.
Well, we did a reboot.
Will you do a reboot of Modern Family?
Oh God.
Like in six months.
[LAUGHTER]
I mean we are going to be really old when they do
a reboot if we don't do it now.
[LAUGHTER]
I have no idea, but it's a very emotional--
I'm open to any advice you can give me.
Because I'm really not dealing with it in a great way.
I think I'm like repressing my feelings about it.
Yeah, I did a little bit of that.
It sneaks up in weird ways.
Yeah.
But you guys are all so close.
We are.
And you have this family bond.
You know, I think I try to protect my emotions
by thinking, this show may be over,
but the relationships aren't.
100%.
Yeah.
Right?
And so that's a good thing.
And you can focus on that--
Yeah, I mean I adore all of them so much.
It's just-- it's really, really sad.
I know.
But you've brought so much joy to so many millions of people.
Thank you.
Yeah.
[CHEERING]
Hey, hey.
You too.
Hey, thanks.
Hey, you too.
Hey, thanks.
[LAUGHTER]
Now, you take your clothes off a lot in this season.
I have.
I've been naked a lot this season.
Calm down, everyone.
[LAUGHTER]
They have you in a hot tub or something?
I mean, I've been in a hot tub, they have me in shower scenes.
Yeah, but the hot tub scene was really intense.
Because not only was I in a hot tub,
I was in a hot tub with Eric Stonestreet, David Beckham,
and Courteney Cox.
[AUDIENCE WOOING]
[CHEERING]
Wow.
That's cool.
That's just another Tuesday.
Just another Tuesday.
I was very excited to be-- and I kind of
knew David Beckham a little bit earlier.
Let me explain.
Sure, sure.
I ran into him and his wife, Victoria Beckham.
Ever heard of her?
Outside of a SoulCycle class.
She sounds spicy.
[LAUGHTER]
And they [INAUDIBLE] outside of a SoulCycle class.
And they were like, we're huge fans of the show.
And it's like, well, if you ever want to come visit the set,
just like take my number.
So I was texting with Victoria Beckham later that day.
And she was like, we would like to come tomorrow.
So I hosted them on the set.
And everyone was like, the Beckham's are here.
Have you heard the Beckham's are here?
And I was like, yeah.
They're my guests.
[LAUGHTER]
So I was like already kind of comfortable around David
in the hot tub.
And so wait.
And so I heard you're in a picture with Taylor Swift
or something on stage?
What's happening?
Oh, yeah.
Do we have that?
So we're at this bar in New York City called the Stonewall.
Which is this very old bar.
I love that you're like explaining it to me.
Not to you.
I know you know.
Yeah.
Girl.
[LAUGHTER]
But please explain.
Yeah.
It's a very famous gay bar in New York City.
And it just celebrated its 50th anniversary this year.
It's where everyone went when Judy Garland died.
The gay community came and congregated there.
And riots broke out there at Stonewall.
And it's sort of this historic bar.
And they're celebrating their 50th anniversary
this past year.
And so we asked Taylor Swift if she would come and do
a surprise appearance at it.
And it was right before her Lover album came out.
And I had just done her video.
So I was like, "I did you a favor, now you do me a favor."
Right.
And it was insane.
And you were in the video.
And Ellen was in the video.
And a bunch of these gay icons.
Yeah.
I wasn't in the video.
[LAUGHTER]
I didn't get asked.
[LAUGHTER]
The auditions were very hard.
Oh, yeah.
Well I didn't get a callback.
Yeah, you didn't get a callback.
No, but I still love Taylor.
I love Taylor.
Yeah, she's awesome.
She's the best.
OK.
More with Jesse when we come 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.
Ah!
[SCREAM]
God!
[BLEEP]
