The 62-year-old The Ellen DeGeneres Show host won the award for Daytime Talk Show of 2020 at the 2020 E! People’s Choice Awards on Sunday (November 15).

In her acceptance speech, Ellen said she was incredibly grateful for the award, while saying she was accepting it on behalf of her staff and crew.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you, from deep, deep down in my heart. I thank you,” Ellen shared. “I am not only accepting this award for myself but on behalf of my amazing crew and staff who make the show possible they show up every single day, give 100 percent of themselves, 100 percent of the time.”

She continued, “I love them all…I thank them for what they do every single day to help that show be the best that we try to make it every single day.”

Ellen also went on to thank all of her fans for their support.

“I know [where] this award comes from — thank you to the people,” Ellen said. “Thanks for all of my fans for supporting me and sticking by me, I can’t tell you how grateful I am and what this means to mean, it’s more than I could possibly tell you, especially now.”
