“I’m going to be quick, although I don’t have to because it’s a special award and they don’t play me off,” Ellen DeGeneres said when she accepted the Carol Burnett award at the goldenglobes “I was born in New Orleans in 1958 ...”
Ellen DeGeneres showcased her trademark self-effacing wit and considerable emotion when she accepted the honorary Carol Burnett Award at the 77th Golden Globe Awards on Sunday.
“I’m going to be quick, although I don’t have to because it’s a special award and they don’t play me off,” DeGeneres teased at the top of her speech before landing the second part of the gag: “I was born in New Orleans in 1958 ...” The award is the equivalent of the Cecil B. DeMille Award, which has traditionally been awarded to film actors and directors. , saying she had greatly inspired her, including providing her “with a road map for a way to be funny that is grounded in an expression of joy.”
DeGeneres also paid light-hearted tribute to the award’s namesake, in a reference to Burnett’s trademark move to close “The Carol Burnett Show”: “Every time she pulled her ear, I knew she was saying, ‘It’s OK, I’m gay too.” DeGeneres is the second recipient of the honor, which was created in 2018 to salute excellence in television.
