The first time I saw them they were interviewing the contestants from the X Factor UK 2 years ago and now I saw them on Ellen DeGeneres’ show performing songs from Alicia Keys, Taylor Swift, Adele and Nicki Minaj. Their first time on Ellen’s show was because of their video singing Super Bass from Nicki Minaj, which Ellen discovered on Youtube. This was reason enough for her to invite them to her show and since then they reunited over and over again.
The fact is, Ellen is the most generous person in the entire world - not for nothing is she called DeGeneres :) – and it doesn’t matter who it is: young, old, gay, bold, Chinese, popular or not, she always tries to help people in all ways possible and that makes her to an outstanding woman all over the world! This time she proved it again. Sophia Grace and Rosie are huge fans of Nicki Minaj and Ellen arranged a meeting with her. Not only did Nicki Minaj come to the show and sang with the two girls, she had a gift for them as well: necklaces and a shopping tour with her. It was incredible how happy these girls were!!
So Sophia Grace and Rosie started to sing for fun at home, getting filmed by their parents. Now they’re singing on the Ellen Show, meeting famous people like Rihanna and Zac Efron, and even having an own show called “Tea Time with Sophia Grace and Rosie” in which they are interviewing celebrities, drinking tea and eating cookies with them. And who made this happen? Ellen. Of course it was Ellen! Because of Ellen the young girls were hosting people like Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Reese Witherspoon, Taylor Swift, Julie Bowen and the amazing Hugh Grant!
In almost every episode they’re asking the people to tell a joke and Hugh Grant absolutely nailed it, haha!
* What’s black and white and black and white? - A nun rolling down the hill.
* And what’s black and white and laughing? - The nun who pushed her.
* What’s black and white and black and white? - A nun rolling down the hill.
* And what’s black and white and laughing? - The nun who pushed her.
Absolutely hilarious! :D And the joke Rosie always tells:
* Why is the banana going to the hospital? – Because it’s not peeling very well!
* Why is the banana going to the hospital? – Because it’s not peeling very well!
...alright haha
The point I want to make is that Ellen is the superwoman from the 20th century, who’s not only able to help people financially, but also to help them in a way she does with Sophia Grace and Rosie. She’s giving unusual people a chance to explore the world, meet new people and just to have fun. Her show is kind of representing the modern American Dream, which is the total opposite of Benjamin Franklin’s view of it, namely by working hard and not by singing on a TV show. These two girls were ordinary kids in school, but now as Ellen discovered them by chance, they got famous within a short period of time. I think, or hope, that some people still believe in the traditional way of “From rags to riches”, or how it's also called “From a dishwasher to a millionaire”, but as everything’s changing, the American Dream changed as well and Ellen is nowadays a good medium through which people can receive help and get famous. In my opinion her show is also a good thing for upcoming Youtube cover bands/artists. By giving them the opportunity to perform on her show, she also gives them a chance to be seen by thousands of people, namely by everyone who’s watching her show.
If you haven’t seen her yet, you should check her out :)
Be kind to one another! :))
