Ellen DeGeneres finds her biggest fans at Marist
A group of Marist College juniors were featured on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."
A group of Marist College juniors today were featured on television with their favorite talk show host – Ellen DeGeneres.
Angela Carone, Kristen Lopes, Caroline Tierney, Julia Lista, Meg McEnroe, Gabriella Frangella, Ellen Molinari and Alayna Krug gather daily to watch "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," at a house they share on Fairview Avenue in Poughkeepsie.
Lopes responded to this inquiry on the show's website: "Are You Ellen's Biggest College Fan? Do you or a college student you know love Ellen so much you actually find time to squeeze in the Ellen Show, in spite of all that partying and studying? We want to hear from you!"
The Marist group was selected and last week, a camera crew visited their off-campus house.
The girls were featured throughout the show, which was taped last week. They were also awarded prizes and will be flown out to California for a live taping of a future episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," Cannon said.
"The Ellen DeGeneres Show" featuring the Marist students was broadcast from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. today. "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" airs each day at 4 p.m. on NBC. Visit www.marist.edu or www.ellentv.com for information.
