Seriously... I'm Kidding by Ellen Degeneres
′I′m excited to be writing another book. I found that between my talk show and my late night blogging, I didn′t have enough ways to express myself.′
Everyone loves Ellen! She is a beloved television icon and entertainment pioneer.

DeGeneres′ hit syndicated talk show, THE ELLEN DEGENERES SHOW, is now in its eighth season and has earned a total of 29 Daytime Emmy awards. Additionally, DeGeneres has won 11 People′s Choice Awards for Favorite Daytime Talk Show Host, Favorite Funny Female Star and Favorite Talk Show. She′s hosted the Oscars and served as a judge on AMERICAN IDOL. Her previous books were both New York Times bestsellers. SERIOUSLY ... I′M KIDDING is a look at Ellen′s life through her humour.
