If you're a magician with over 300 million views online,
chances are you're going to end up on my show,
no matter how far away you live.
From London, England please welcome Luca Gallone.
[APPLAUSE]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) The magic, magic, magic.
Magic, magic, magic.
Baby magic, magic, magic.
Gallone, right?
Yeah, Gallone.
All right.
So I don't know what you're doing, because I don't
like to know ahead of time.
But I love magic.
I love it.
Amazing, well thanks so much for having me on the show.
I'm nearly as excited as everyone in this audience.
That's insane.
[APPLAUSE]
So Ellen, first of all, before I do any magic,
I just want to say my cousin, my six-year-old cousin Lexie
is a huge fan of you.
Hi, Lexie, by the way.
Hi, Lexie.
And she insisted that I bring some dollars.
She gave me some dollars to bring to buy something
at the Ellen Shop.
OK.
I have them with me over here.
I have to tell you, though, I'm not too sure whether these
are actually legit.
So I thought I'd ask you--
I got five of these.
Just have a look at that for me.
OK.
Yeah, these aren't real.
Oh, they're not?
Yeah.
Oh, that's a shame.
You don't accept those at the Ellen Shop, no?
Well I will, for Lexie.
But these are not real.
This is not real money.
OK.
Well I'll tell you what we'll do with it.
We'll take these five notes, fold them over like that.
If you watch very closely, you can actually
turn them into $500 real!
What?
And I will decide what I'm going to do with those later.
Wow.
That's great.
I need to give you some fake money.
Yeah.
You would accept those for sure, right?
I'd accept those.
Amazing.
OK, would you like to see a card trick?
I want to see whatever you want to show me.
OK, fantastic.
Right.
That's a lovely mug as well.
Right.
Card trick.
For this trick, we're going to have two cards picked out.
You are going to pick one of them.
But we're also going to have another one picked out as well.
OK.
From one of the lovely audience members.
So before we get to your cards, I'm
going to choose someone who wants to be on The Ellen Show
to pick us a card.
[CHEERING]
You in the front row, in the striped top.
If everyone else can sit down, you
can stay standing for a second.
What's your name?
Erin.
Good to meet you, Erin.
Could you, in your mind, just think of a card for me?
Do you have one?
Great, amazing.
Take a seat.
That's fantastic.
OK, perfect.
Ellen, if you wouldn't mind just holding out your first finger
and just touching the back of one of these cards as well.
That one.
That one there, perfect.
OK, I want you to just take a look at that card for me.
And we are going to take this card
and actually tear the corner off of the card, OK?
So here we go.
I actually hate having to ruin my cards.
It's so annoying.
You don't know how many cards I get through.
Just in fact, just tear-- oh.
All right.
I was going to let you tear it.
But no.
Right, we'll put that on the table,
and just keep that safe for me.
Great.
We'll get back to your card in a second, Ellen.
But first, I'm going to find Erin's card
using the help of my phone, and my favorite app on the phone,
which is the Ellen app.
Oh, yeah.
Sure.
So if we actually take and just touch it like that,
we get Juicy Fruits.
Juicy Fruit on the phone.
We take the Juicy Fruit, and actually just shake it,
pop straight out of the phone.
Now look.
[APPLAUSE]
Believe it or not, this is actually--
this Juicy Fruit is actually not any normal kind of Juicy Fruit.
It's actually my mind reading chewing gum as well.
All right.
So it helps me read the minds of our audience member
who has a card in mind.
So Erin, if you just stare at the Juicy Fruit over that,
and can you just think of your card it as you stare at it, OK?
Got it?
Yeah.
OK, for the first time, what was the card you had in mind?
Six of hearts.
Watch the Juicy Fruit very closely.
OK.
We're just going to give it one shake and boom, six of hearts.
[APPLAUSE]
Wow.
And that is my--
That's amazing.
Thank you very much.
Now, I still got this.
You've still got that.
Now we're going to do something--
Let's take a break.
All right.
We can do it right after.
All right.
We'll take a break, and then we'll
see what's going to happen.
We'll be back.
I have a piece of queen of heart here.
You do.
I'm going to do something amazing with your queen
of hearts.
So first of all, I'm going to tear it into four pieces,
like this.
OK, great.
Now, I'm going to basically take these four pieces of card,
and put them on top of the deck like that.
Now, how impressed would you be if I
could make all those pieces join back together?
So impressed.
Here we go.
I'm not going to do that, by the way.
It would have been good, but watch.
On the count of three, 3, 2, 1, bang.
There's gum.
Gum, yes.
Gum.
In fact, yeah, we have a whole stick
of chewing gum which was not really what we expected.
But wait, we've had that stick of chewing gum sat
in the middle of the table the entire time?
Yes.
Hang on.
If we actually open this out, I think it no longer
has a piece of gum inside.
It's actually now a card.
It's not just any card, though, it is actually--
Oh my god.
Is this going to fit on that, too?
Queen of hearts.
And it is the very same queen of hearts right there.
And--
[APPLAUSE]
That's incredible.
How cool is that?
That is incredible.
You're amazing.
Thank you so much.
Oh, I just have one more thing I wanted.
Oh sure, go ahead.
Yeah, well obviously Ellen chose the queen of hearts.
And I think we all know who the real queen of our hearts
is around here.
Watch this.
Just going to take my hand.
Going to give the card a little rub on the face,
and hopefully we can cause this queen
to merge into the real Ellen queen of hearts.
[APPLAUSE] And I think that's you.
That is amazing.
Thank you so much.
I want to thank all of my guests.
Be kind to one another.
Bye-bye Wow.
