Every night before I go to bed, I do the same thing.
I watch the local news from Red Bank, New Jersey.
Recently, I couldn't believe what I saw.
Josevic, Serali, and Leomar all share the same birthday.
Do you like having the same birthday
as your brother and your sister?
Mm-hm, and I like Ellen DeGeneres.
And you like Ellen DeGeneres?
They seem to share that in addition to their birthday.
When am I gonna go meet Ellen?
You want to meet Ellen too?
You guys love Ellen.
You wanted Ellen DeGeneres, you're stuck with me.
That made me happy, so I had my producers find out
more about the Lopez family.
It turns out they could use some holiday cheer.
So I sent my receptionist, Jeannie, to New Jersey.
She's outside of their home now.
Hi, Jeannie.
Hi, Ellen.
[INAUDIBLE]
I'm not going to call them.
I think you should just go knock on their door.
If they're not home, just come on back.
OK.
You're out of shape.
You are breathing so hard walking.
Here we go.
Here we go, Ellen.
Hello?
[SQUEALING]
It's Ellen!
[AUDIENCE APPLAUSE]
Tell me who everybody is.
Introduce yourselves.
Hi, Ellen.
Tell her your name.
Tell her your names.
My name is Josevic, and I'm seven years old.
OK, and what's your name?
My name is Serali, and I'm four years old.
And what's your name?
Leomar.
Yeah, do you know how old you are?
How old are you papi?
How old are you, papa?
Are you two?
Two.
Two, and what's your name?
Janette.
And?
My name's Raul.
Say hi to Ellen, guys.
All right, I have to say--
hey, everybody.
Why did everybody keep-- why did the kids keep mentioning me
in the interview?
Why did they keep mentioning her--
Oh my God.
So it's the first time that they-- they've never really
been exposed to interviews and stuff
like this, only when they see Ellen.
So automatically, they're, like, oh, this is for Ellen.
What do you have, Josevic?
Guess what?
What?
I'm going to save a gorilla.
[INAUDIBLE]
I know, Josevic, that's why I'm there,
because I heard you were saving all of your birthday money.
That's amazing, Josevic.
That is so sweet of you to think about the gorillas.
--how great you are to think about the gorillas
and the Wildlife Fund.
That's so sweet.
So Janette, I know the reason you were on the news
is because all of the kids have the exact same birthday.
How do you plan for something like that?
That is precise.
It was not planned.
They had complete different due dates.
She was a whole two weeks late.
She was not even induced.
But, you know what, thinking back,
I'm thinking that they were all a product of Valentine's Day.
We no longer celebrate Valentine's Day.
It's gone.
Completely gone.
No more Valentine's Day.
No, no, what's Valentine's Day?
What is that?
So Janette, I know you're living with your parents right now.
You had to move back in with your parents.
You're sharing one bedroom.
And I know you were worried about Christmas this year.
How did it go for your kids?
You know what, at the end of the day,
Christmas is about spending time with the family.
And that's what it was.
And Christmas was fine.
And I know that my kids, if I would have wrapped
a box of cereal and wrapped it, they
would have been grateful with that.
Right?
They're good.
They're good kids.
Well, listen, first of all, I just
want to say thank you so much, Josevic, for what you're doing.
That means so much to me that you're saving money
to help the gorillas.
That really, really means a lot to me.
So I want to do something for your family.
It's a little bit late, but I got
you some stuff for Christmas.
You know about my 12 Days of Giveaways, right?
Yes.
And you made us cry, right?
I want you to get the gifts from day one of my 12 Days, and day
two, and day three, and day four.
The entire 12 Days of Giveaways that we gave away this year.
Over $2,500 in Visa and Amazon gift cards,
TCL Roku TVs, five-year Netflix subscription, Apple AirPods,
round tickets on Jet Blue.
You're going to Jamaica, Mexico.
You're going to all--
you have a lot going on.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUSE]
Merry Christmas to y'all.
Thank you so much, everybody.
Thank you so much.
Say, thank you, Ellen.
Thank you, Ellen.
Say thank you, Papi.
I love you too.
Thank you so much.
We'll be right back.
--from all of us.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[INAUDIBLE], how awesome, wow!
Keep it coming.
We're not going to be able to move in here.
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
I think I'm dreaming.
He thinks he's dreaming, Ellen.
He thinks he's dreaming.
Are you OK?
Are you happy?
Are you so happy?
Say, thank you.
Thank you.
Want to say, I love you, Ellen?
I love you, Ellen.
She loves you guys too, very much.
We love you, Ellen.
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.
