What
made
Ellen
DeGeneres
cry
on
her
show?
Ellen
DeGeneres
is
one
of
the
comedians
who
with
her
humour,
wit
done
at
perfect
timings
can
make
your
mood.
So,
it
is
quite
surprising
to
see
the
entertainer
feeling
low
or
crying
that
too
on
camera.
Before
you
come
to
a
conclusion,
here
is
what
actually
made
the
talented
host
of
The
Ellen
Show
cry.
Ellen
DeGeneres
had
guests,
Selma
cast
on
her
show.
Oprah
Winfrey
who
plays
Annie
Lee
Cooper,
David
Oyelowo
who
plays
Martin
Luther
King
Jr.
and
Carmen
Ejogo
who
plays
Martin's
wife,
Coretta
Scott
King
were
on
The
Ellen
Show
to
talk
about
their
biopic.
During
this,
Ellen
got
emotional
while
talking
about
the
movie,
Selma
is
based
on
Martin
Luther
King
Jr.,
the
American
pastor,
activist,
humanitarian,
and
leader
in
the
African-American
Civil
Rights
Movement.
The
biopic
focuses
on
a
short
period
after
the
1964
passage
of
the
Civil
Rights
Act,
the
law
that
abolished
segregation
and
discrimination
on
the
basis
of
race,
colour,
religion,
sex
or
national
origin
in
the
US.
While
discussing
Selma
with
Oprah
Winfrey,
Ellen
said,
"The
opening
scene
is
heartbreaking,
and
I
cried
from
the
moment
I
sat
down
until
the
end."
Ellen
was
so
touched
by
the
biopic
and
the
struggle
shown
in
the
movie,
she
added,
"I
can
cry
thinking
about
it
now."
Ellen
got
emotional
and
was
almost
in
tears
while
saying
this.
Oprah
then
came
forward
and
gave
the
support
to
make
Ellen
feel
better.
Selma
actress,
Carmen
then
said,
"So
many
people
come
out
of
the
cinema
with
the
same
reaction.
It
is
such
a
galvanizing
film."
