Nobody could have done a better job. She really did show us it was okay to laugh again. I've always loved Ellen, but I loved her even more after she hosted the Emmys in 2001. What a wonderful, courageous person! They don't come any better than Ellen DeGeneres.
What a tough spot to find yourself hosting anything. The Emmy award show had been delayed due to 9/11. Ellen found herself needing to bring America together and provide some relief with humor while acknowledging the tragedy our country had gone through. I thought she was amazing ... and still do.
It was actually postponed _twice._ Initially, these awards were to be held the Sunday after the attack. Its rescheduled date was for October, only to be postponed a second time just hours before the ceremony was to have started.
Nah girl. Steve Martin was before Ellen. She left our wonderful Ellen D for a cameraman that I forget the name of. And that cameraman was a member of Ellen's stand-up crew back in 2000. Is'nt that painful?
***** Can you tell me the last time a throat singing monk was internationally famous? Top 10 hit? Where? One worth 40million? Bjork was all over the top 40 radio waves in the 90's. She's famous as hell. I'm sorry that bothers you... It's a fact. Taste is also subjective.
***** I didn't like the swan dress, the only annoyance was that you put the term "singer" in quotes. Implying she isn't a singer, which is just dumb and unnecessary. I knew you didn't like her, I have reading comprehension skills. Thanks.

I agree!!!
Too bad she became an asshole
I remember this. Everyone was so uneasy. Ellen made it okay to laugh again.
I wish she would host everything.
The "I guess this is business casual" line kills me every time!
A very richly-deserved standing-O!!! She was note-perfect in a nearly impossible job.
Her best stand up to date.
Gay women in a suit surrounded by Jews! Love that line ❤
She is such a fantastic person, and one of the best hosts out there.
Do you know where I can watch the full show?
Do you have the full episode? Would be nice to upload it.
We love you Ellen! Thank you for brightening the world with your love and light with laughter :') ♥
Thanks for posting! I love Ellen.
Best comedian of all time! Her timing is unmatched!
I remember thinking I was gonna break a rib I was laughing so hard when she came out in that Bjork outfit,lol.

A remarkable hosting job. Thank you Ellen!
best line ever
What would bug the Taliban more than seeing a gay woman in a suit surrounded by Jews?
the beast inside you
Haaahaaa I think she is making fun of the swan dress that Bjork wore once
ELLEN IS THA ONE !!!!
hey that reminds me didn't Anne Heche leave Ellen for Steve Martin?
Nah girl. Steve Martin was before Ellen.

wow that does hurt
Fantastic
haha anyone else notice Camille Grammar at 1:57?
That line at 1:40 and the laughing and ovation is just another way of beating terrorism. This is how we stayed together as a country back then.
she is so great, she should host the emmys again
@1:40 -- Absolute perfection :-)
Brilliant! 1:40 was priceless!
she was best dressed at oscars
❤️❤️❤️
She looks like Meg ryan
Omg hahahha what was she wearing?! Hahaha a swan xD!!!!
***** That "singer" is worth 40 million dollars and is successfull worldwide.

***** Well I don't fault you for that, she's definitely a love/hate artist. I have no friends that enjoy her lol.
Free the Merlot! Free the Merlot! LOL
