Little did anyone know that day, Jeannie had just struck the jackpot.
True to the gift-fairy that she is, Ellen asked Jeannie what it is she needed. To which Jeannie replied, “I need a job…I’ll clean your bathroom!”
In their brief conversation, Ellen fell in love with Jeannie’s joyful personality, and felt compelled to have her on the show.
She invited the fun-loving fangirl down to the stage, and offered Jeannie a job on live television as the show’s new receptionist!
I swear, you cannot make these Ellen surprises up!!
Since being hired, Jeannie has appeared on the show regularly—meeting big name celebrities, going behind the scenes and spreading joy wherever she goes.
