Hey Ellen's staff. Does anyone even read this or care what we have to say. I love Ellen...I watch everyday but I am rather put off by the whole Bust thing. First off...Ellen said "if I get a gift,you get a gift. Then changed it to "if we show it on the show", then "if we said your name you get a $100 gift card. It cost me $100 to make and ship the thing. Don't care about that part so much but I think it is very disrespectful to the people who spent their time and talent making a bust for Ellen's Birthday not to even post pictures of them ALL on this site. SUCH A HUGE LET DOWN! I keep hoping Ellen will decide to do a spot on a future show something like...Ellen or Bust. Or Ellen's just Bustin'.....something! I hate to think all those Great Busts ended up in the dumpster.

I have read many of the comments regarding the busts. I agree with those who say that you should acknowledge their efforts by at least posting an image of their creation. I would love to see the other creations. If you received over 200 busts, why display only 107? There are a lot of people that feel slighted. There are some very heart-felt sentiments in the comments that people have left. Why not display the rest of the busts? I don't understand why your staff has not at least responded to their comments. I also don't understand why everyone who to took the time to create and send send a bust could not receive some token gift. It wouldn't have to be much,just an acknowledgement of their efforts. An autographed Ellen picture? An autographed blindfold? It is very disconcerting that the comments seam to be going un-acknowledged. Just my two cents.

Hi Ellen I am sorta put out over the fact that I know my gift to you ( a PAINTED WINE GLASS ) with your image and clothes which I create for many people was received according to USPS at the address specified for mailing of gifts and was never shown or acknowleged. I realize your show is not obligated to contact anyone or show gift , I would have liked to had a comment on my gift which I spent the greater part of the day to make and is usable as a wine glass. We watch your show every day and love both you and the show. If you read this , thanks for your time. Marv & Ellie

Hi Ellen's staff, Sorry for bugging you again, but this is the address i sent the painting to: The Ellen DeGeneres Show PO Box 7788 Burbank, CA 91522 ATTN: Fan Mail Was that right? Or did I have to send it to the one for Ellen's bust? Would you be able to send me an email if you did receive it?

Hi Ellen, just wanted to say happy birthday again! I sent in a satchel with a painting of the gentle barn via registered post. There is no tracking and I am not sure if you received it? I am from Perth Western Australia and hope you did receive that along with a note for both you and Portia! Take care!

Hey Ellen, Happy 55th! Your Birthday Show was great! I couldn't believe all the Busts you recieved. I have to say I think it would be only fair if you posted pictures of ALL the Busts you recieved. I sent one and it was alot of work. Spend nearly $100...between shipping and supplies. It would have been nice to at least see a picture of it here with the others. I know you can have a staff member post the rest of the pictures in no time flat. Just like you I am an Artist. It was a mistake to make and send a serious Bust of you and not a bag of water with some hair in it...which was funny. I guess you always have to go for the LAUGH! The person who made the life sized sculpture of you dancing down the steps did a great job. You do exactly that with your hands! lol I wish we could have seen all of the Busts posted here. Bet everyone who sent one would agree. Many of us put alot into it!
