Ellen, Coconuts, Will Smith and the Robot, OH my!
Hello Everybody---
I have the most amazing news ever. I went to the Ellen show today. Here's the VIDEO~
I had so much fun!
Will Smith was there!!!!!<<-----I honestly had to contain myself. He is not only beautiful on film...... he is ALL THAT in person too!!!!!!!!!!!! He is so funny! The way he speaks so highly of his love for his family, he's been married 10 years to his wife Jada and LOVES LOVES LOVES his family! I love that he mentioned how he is constantly working to be the best husband, father, friend, actor and more. He was so much fun to see in person! One thing I really admired about him was during the commercial breaks, he went out into the audience and hugged, shook hands with people. You could tell the 'makeup' people wanted him to come back to his chair and he was just having a blast with the audience! He also grabbed the mic and sang my all time favorite song. MIAMI. WOW, I can't even explain the energy in the room, everyone was on their feet, rapping the song along with him, dancing in the aisles. If you've never been to a taping of the Ellen show, you are MISSING out. It's one big dance party! From beginning to end. If you are a stick in the mud, this is NOT THE SHOW for you! Be sure to tune in on Monday (NBC) --You will see us
in the audience and you'll definitely see me ON STAGE winning a trip to Hawaii. I played the Coconut game and won on the first shot! BAM!!!!! with ONE SHOT!
I have skillz. Popping my collar right now. Thank you very much!
Disclaimer: I was so excited at the end, I broke out and did the Robot dance, I am going to apologize ahead of time. I was caught up in the moment, hopefully they'll cut that part out! Hah!
Can you believe this? I still can't believe it---I won a trip to Waikiki, Hawaii for 4 people. My family and I are finally going on a vacation! Can you believe this? The show will contact me with the final details, all I can remember after I jumped up and down was the trip will include: 7 days 6 nights at the Embassy Suites. Please, pinch me. I feel like it's all a dream! I need advice, what is there to do there? I am so happy!!! WOOOOOOO HOOOOOO!
Don't forget, tune in on Monday (NBC) to see the show. Please, TiVO it and send me a copy of the tape too. Please?????????? Ohhh wait.........Did I mention, Will Smith was there? He is so fine (don't worry my husband knows) Hah!!!
I shook Will Smith's hand (when do you think would be a good time to wash it?), gave Ellen the biggest hug ever, and most of all, I won tickets to Hawaii. Am I dreaming?

Congratulations to you!! That is so awesome. I am glad to hear that your family will be able to take a vacation. :)
Congratulations Tanyetta! I love the Ellen show and will definitely watch it on Monday on the Slingbox my father kindly hooked up for me so I can see American television from Japan!
What an exciting day for you!
Looking forward to reading about your great vacation to Hawaii on your blog!
Tanyetta!!! That is way cool. I am excited for you. You and your family will have an excellent time. Which island do you guys get to visit?
That is amazing! Congratulations!
We love Ellen and Will Smith too! It sounds like you had an amazing day and Hawaii! That will be so much fun! :)
OMG! How exciting is that??? I LOVE Ellen! We have been requesting tickets since the beginning and we still have not been lucky. Except for an Orlando show, which is just not the same as a studio show. And Hawaii! What a blessing! I have Ellen programmed to my DVR so I definitely will be watching and telling my husband that I "know" you!
THIS IS LIKE WAY BEYOND COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll watch!!!
you.are.awesome! wow - is it okay that I'm more excited about will smith than hawaii?!!
...setting dvr right now...
YOU GO GIRL!!! OOOO...if they left the part of you doing the robot in there, I will have it forever, because I'm recording it! LOL That is so doggone cool! Y'all are going to have a fabulous time in Hawaii.
I totally watch Ellen every day so I will be so proud to see a person I know (kind of know through blogland). That is fun!!
Congrats on the trip. How hard was it to get tickets? Just wondering?
OMG! How awesome is that! I will surely be watching on Monday!
I am so hoping they show the robot dance. LOL
OMG! I am sooooooo excited for you. You are one lucky girl. I can't wait to hear about the details of your trip to Hawaii and I'm definitely going to watch on Monday. Congratulations!! **\\O//**
You go gurl!!! Don't trip about the "robot" LOL. One can not be held accountable for their actions during moments of PURE JOY. I'm happy for you. Lawd knows my ain't had no vacation since 1995, LOL.
How did you end up at the Ellen Show? I've always wanted to be on a talk show.
Wow, congratulations! I am so happy for you, it sounds like you had a perfect day!!
WOW Tanyetta!! I am SO SO SO excited for you! Just... WOW.
That is sooo awesome! Congrats!!!
i could totally feel your excitement reading this post! congrats!
i think this is the first comment i've left on your blog, but i've been a lurker for a while ;)
OMG! how cool is that!!! i have never been a huge will smith fan but he was so freakin hot in i am legend that i have changed my mind. that body is smokin! hawaii!!!!
My advice: tell Ellen you need accommodations for 3 more of your family members!
I hope I can catch the show, I'm so not good at TV watching + I'm pretty much nocturnal!
If they cut the robot dance you know you gotta make a video, you and DJ bustin a move, lol!
This is awesome news. I'll be tuning in especially to see that dance! LOL
Holy Cow! You are like famous and everything. I will have to TIVO.
Someone I know is famous. Well, someone I kinda know. In the blogging world. Nevermind, now that you're famous you can just pretend you don't know me.
Congrats! You are one lucky lady! I love that Miami song too. That trip should be super fun! I cannot wait to read all about it here.
Congratulations to you!! I do not know how you manage to win everything! I know your family is so excited. Dwayne said he is so happy for you and wants to know the secret of how you are always winning stuff! He said some lotto numbers would be nice!
The McKoys are going to Hawaii!!
Oh my god, Will Smith!! I absolutely love his fine self! Congratulations. Oh yeah, glad you won the trip too. But actually meeting Will and touching him. I just can't stop smiling for your. I love him and Jada. That is why son's middle name is Jayden. Yes, I am a little stalkerish. Do not ever wash that hand! I will be tuning in to watch Ellen. Congrats again.
Congratulations! How Awesome! Here are a couple of ideas of what to do....
1. Climb to top of Diamond Head (its a national park)
2. Visit the Pearl Harbor Museum
3. Visit the Dole Pinapple Plantation and play in the maze
4. Take surfing lessons (my kids loved it)
5. Visit some beaches (at least one of the top 10 beaches in the world is at Waikiki)
Have a blast!
Okay, so you saw Will Smith in person, but the icing on the cake is you're going to Hawaii with your family! Congratulations!
A vaca to Hawaii! What a day!
Wow talk about an AWESOME day!! I can't think of anyone who deserves a fantastic family vacation more! Can't wait to see your pictures from your Hawaiin adventure (and where are the pics of you and Will?)
GIRL! I hadn't been on here in a while - I was just watching TV and was like "I know that lady from somewhere . . ." then I heard your name! Then I saw you win a trip to Hawaii! How awesome is that?!? Enjoy your trip. I am so excited for you! Now about that robot . . .
Congrats! I know you'll have a great time in Hawaii. I second SalesDiva's suggestions. I would also suggest heading up to the North Shore where all the best surfers ride. If you get a chance, check out one of the luau shows. They can be expensive but you can e-mail me for some 'tips' on how to find them cheaper. Also, get water shoes. Waikiki is a man-made beach and the sand turns to coral not far from the shore and coral cuts. I sliced open my foot. Not fun.
I just watched Ellen. You were Hilarious! Congrats!
Dee
OMG!!! That was so funny. I was on the floor laughing. The producers were rolling. They could not believe you got it in on the 1st try. WOW!!! Ellen will be playin that clip, over and over. It made for great television.
AWESOME!!!
Awesome, Tanyetta! I can't beleive you got it in the first shot! And I was so happy when they said it was a trip for four! Now your kids can go too!
Congratulations to you and your family! What a wonderful gift - I'm so happy for you! Unfortunately I didn't get to see the show but I'm hearing rave reviews. Word on the street is that YOU SO ROCKED the Ellen show!
I can't wait to see the video clip.
Congrats on your winning a trip to hawaii :)
I currently live here now
make sure your family goes to the north shore and go to a shrimp truck and have shaved ice
and drive around hawaii kai its so beautiful out there
and go to the NEX by Pearl Harbor its the BOMB!
If want/need any more suggestions on things to do feel free to e-mail me
also be sure to hit up the ITR(i dont know what the other branches call it) to get tickets to the events its much cheaper!
Fuck I missed it! Didn't check my email yesterday so I didn't see your message til today!
Shit!
Bet you were awesome in your television debut though! :-)
WOW! Congrats you are too cool. But, I have to admit I'm going to watch just to see the robot at the end. You know that is going to follow you every where!!! You will be in Hawaii and they are going to say, "hey, I saw you on Ellen doing your thang!!" How exciting, I must say you are living a charmed life. Keep it up!
I was searching Google for footage of you winning and found your blog! What a world we live in. Congrats on your win. You had me crying I was laughing so hard when you made the first shot. Ellen looked SHOCKED! Hopefully someone will post the video, it was priceless!
okay, I wish I had read earlier so I could have seen the show!! Dang. I want to see the dancing.
Congrats on a trip to Hawaii, that's beautiful man! How exciting.
This is such great news...I don't even know you and I am over the moon with excitement!!! You seem like a nice deserving women...I wish I'd watched Ellen Monday darn!!!
OMG!! I leave for one week to go on vacation and you go and meet my girl Ellen (she's from New Orleans, you know) and win a trip and everything!! crazy.
Will Smith is so so so hot.
You are so funny :)
I am just figuring this out....but let me say WOW!!!!!! As I told you this is such a great chance to just sit back....enjoy....and relax....and work on another little one....:)....got to remember my cousin Lottie Dee blessing you at WalMart....can't wait to see the pictures...
