Back in the day, Johnny Carson was the host of ‘The Tonight Show,’ which wasn’t as open-minded as it is today. It came as quite a surprise to many viewers when Carson allowed Ellen to guest on his show to do her standup routine, and was also the only female comedian he ever interviewed himself. But what was even more surprising is how many people loved her, which then helped her gain popularity. Soon after, Ellen was asked to come out on other late night shows like ‘The late Show with David Letterman, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Later with Greg Kinnear, Larry King Live, and Good Morning, America.’ We don’t know about you but that line up sounds mighty impressive!
