Okay people, it’s time for another rules list. This time it’s about when celebrities had to show up on Ellen . That show seemed so relaxed, but even they had rules!
1. You will be jump scared
One of the most prominent things on The Ellen Show were the jump scares , so if you’re were ever visiting her, you can probably bet that you were going to get spooked by her.
2. Ellen’s Parties
The stars would have to talk about one of Ellen’s elaborate parties during their guest spot on her show. Whether you attended and didn’t see her, or the opposite, then there’s a good chance they’d still have to chat about it.
3. Must Participate In Games
This one is probably the most obvious. If someone was on Ellen , and they agreed to be on Ellen , then they might be asked to play a game . And they are obviously probably obligated to play.
4. No Cellphones
Obviously, people were not allowed be taking out their cellphone s during an interview with Ellen. There were some exceptions, however, like if they wanted to take a selfie for Instagram, Ellen might let that go.

As casual and fun as it is, she always wanted people to be real. Just like that song… what’s it called again…

Occasionally (see Kanye’s interview) celebrities would have to talk about the more uncomfortable parts of their careers.
8. Perform
Ellen, like many talk show hosts, always had someone ready to perform for her. She had some of the best stars in the world perform.
9. Dress Casually

Nope, you’d just be in comfy clothes for a more often-than-not comfy interview.
10. No Cussing
People couldn’t be too comfy on Ellen , either.
If someone had a potty mouth, you had to check that shoot at the door and don’t be a b-word because Ellen runs a flipping family show, mother father.
11. Kardashians
Ellen is a huge fan of the Kardashians , so chances were, on her show she might bring them up once or twice.
And honestly, it didn’t matter what you’re opinion on them might be.
