- We're gonna play a game called--
It's a hash tag, so you pick it out,
and whatever the hash tag is, you have--
Like, if it says, \#favoritetalkshowhost,
you'd say--
- \#Ellen.
- So that's just an example. - Yeah.
- All right, so pick one, and then--
- I love it, and the bag says, "Ellen's hash tag bag."
- \#can'tlivewithout. Green tea.
- Yeah? Is that it?
Okay. - I mean, there's lots.
But that's--I know. I just picked a boring--
- Four people clapped for that.
- I'm so sorry.
Okay, let me take this one again.
\#can'tlivewithout. Music.
- Yeah, that's good.
[cheers and applause]
And say it like that. That's good.
All right. - Okay.
- Now you get the hang of it. - Okay, yeah.
You don't just, like, say a thing from your purse.
- Yeah.
You keep green tea in your purse?
- I do; I keep a powdered form of it.
It's like crack cocaine to me. I take it all day long.
It allows me to function.
Without it, I would slide into a deep depression.
- Oh. - Yeah.
- That's sad.
- \#biggestfear. Tidal waves.
Dream about them. Read about them.
- You live in New York.
[laughter]
- What's to stop it coming there?
We're surrounded by water. - You are.
- What's to stop it--
We don't know about the wonders of the deep.
- No, it could--no.
Some people do, but-- they study it.
Okay.
- You made a great point. - Yeah.
- \#firsttattoo.
My first tattoo is actually one that I got when I was 17.
It's of Eloise, the little girl who lives at the Plaza.
I don't know if anyone knows that's children's book.
It's a delight. There it is.
You see it, and I don't mean to plug another project,
but on March 23rd, a documentary that I produced
about--with my producing partner Jenny Connor
about this tattoo and this girl
is gonna be on HBO.
- Oh, wow, just another project for you.
- It's--but, yeah, the tattoo--
My parents came with me.
They were very supportive.
They knew I was gonna either, like,
go let someone do it with a rusty needle,
or they were gonna take me, so they took me.
- Do they have tattoos, your parents?
- They don't, but they're-- they like the art form.
- How many do you have?
- I have, like, nine at this point,
but I stopped when I was, like, 20.
It was all a 17 to 20 phase of mayhem.
- Will you have more?
- I actually think, when this show's done,
there's a couple that I want to slap on me.
Like a little Ellen. - Oh, I see.
- Do you have any tattoos? both: No.
- No interest. - Just a cool look.
\#secretcelebritycrush.
Well, that's easy. David Strathairn.
- Really? - You familiar with his work?
- Yes. - Yeah, he's--
He's just a handsome man of a certain age
who I think does great work as an actor consistently.
I'm sorry I couldn't say Channing Tatum for you people.
[cheers and applause]
- You did the right thing. - David Strathairn.
- Yeah. - Oscar nominee.
- No, no, you-- it's good.
Well, let's end on-- That's a high note.
- Okay.
[laughter]
I was a \#disaster. - No, no, no.
You were not.
Hey, I want to give you a gift.
We gave you a gift last time
because you wear onesies all the time,
and your dog Lamby is the cutest dog in the world,
and you love Lamby, which you said--
you didn't say you couldn't live without him.
- Well, it's--I thought it was just implied.
There he is.
I just posted this today. It's Lamby.
- Look at that.
And--and matching shirts.
- Yeah, that have Lamby's face on them.
- Oh. So here's what I want to do.
Look at that face.
So I gave you a shirt with all of your favorite--
A onesie with all your favorite things,
and Jack didn't think it was sexy.
He thought it was not sexy at all.
- He referred to it as "uninviting."
He said it was an uninviting garment,
which doesn't mean I took it off.
It just means that that point of contention
existed between us.
- Well, we don't want anything like that to happen,
so we're gonna give you something
that hopefully he'll like.
- [squeals]
[cheers and applause]
Ellen, it's magic. - Isn't it?
- It's magic. How do you do it?
- You'll wear it. - I'll wear it.
Literally it will be Instagram'd this evening.
- I cannot wait.
- You guys, mark my words.
I'll be--I'll be in a sultry pose.
- We can't wait. I can't wait to see it.
You can catch "Girls" Sunday nights at 9:00 in HBO.
- Oh, my God, Lamby slippers.
- I know it. I know it.
And I'm excited to announce that Lena's book
"Not That Kind of Girl" is featured
this month on my book bar on Entitle.
Sign up today to start reading.
We'll be right back. - Thank you so much.
[cheers and applause]
