WATCH: Ellen DeGeneres Wins 14th People's Choice - Pokes Fun at Her Friend Oprah!
Ellen DeGeneres became the People's Choice for a record-breaking 14th time when she was given the award Wednesday night in downtown Los Angeles for Favorite Daytime TV Host.
"As a young girl growing up in New Orleans, if anyone would have told me I was going to win 14 People's Choice Awards, I ... I mean 12, yes. Thirteen? Maybe. But 14?" joked DeGeneres, who also said she wantedThe Ellen DeGeneres Show to be a show for everyone — "old, young, black, white, gay or straight."
With winning your 14th People's Choice apparently comes a lot of --let's call it--chutzpah. Ellen dared poke fun at her friend, the almighty O, in her speech.
"Just yesterday I was talking to this lovely African-American woman and she told me she was single and she works 80 hours a week to get by and she looked forward to coming home every night and watching me, and that woman's name is Oprah Winfrey. I think I am doing something right."
