So I went to Olvera Street yesterday, for some taquitos, between auditions. (When I'm there I'm always reminded of how white I really am.) Anyway, while browsing at knock-off Louis Vatton purses (intentionally spelled incorrectly, because that's what it said on the purse), I noticed Ellen Degeneres was taping a segment for her show. She was wearing a sombrero, speaking fucked-up Spanish, etc. I was thinking awesome, I like Ellen, I think she'a a great comic. I'll wait until the segment is done and introduce myself. I waited and when they said "cut" I put my hand out and said, "Ellen!" I only took about half a step towards her when her bodyguard elbowed my ribs! I said, "Don't do that! I only wanted to meet Ellen!"
Anyway, they moved on, and I bought a Mexican wrestling mask.

Perhaps I can talk to her about this if I ever make it to her show.
