10 Times Ellen DeGeneres Cracked Herself Up
Rachel McGrath

Anyone who has watched her show knows that Ellen DeGeneres is unparalleled in humor, generosity and overall positivity. It is no surprise that she is so popular because she makes people feel good about themselves for 60 straight minutes. She makes millions of people laugh every day--from her pranks on celebrities to her quick-witted jokes, it’s impossible not to smile when watching her. Here are some of the (many) times she couldn’t handle her own jokes and laughed hysterically until tears started streaming down her face.

1. Ellen tries to put gloves on in 20 seconds, but things don't go quite according to plan.

2. A young magician has Ellen laughing so hard that she tears up with his "dumbfounding" magic tricks.

3. Ellen tries to keep it together as she gives tips for Thanksgiving table seating.

4. During her 12 Days of Giveaways, one of Ellen's elves had a bit of trouble rolling out a TV.

5. When Ellen had Sofia Vergara on her show, they decided they would give Sofia a makeover...let's just say things took a turn for the hilarious.

6. Ellen decided to surprise Powerball ticket holders with a chance to win a trip to one of her 12 Days of Giveaways.

7. When Ellen sends an audience member undercover as a Starbucks drive-thru employee, one customer's responses in particular have Ellen cracking up.

8. Ellen decides that it's time for Andy Zenor, one of her producers, to get a flu shot on her show.

9. A Starbucks employee agreed to wear an earpiece and repeat everything Ellen said...well, everything she thought Ellen said.

10. Ellen's game 'Know or Go' proves that people will come up with the funniest wrong answers when facing their fear of heights.

In the words of Ellen, be kind to one another!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
