Ellen confirmed for Whip It, and my eyes bleed

Looks like Ellen has indeed joined the cast of Whip It, Drew Barrymore's directorial debut.

"I really admire how Drew constantly challenges herself as an artist," Page says. "She's proven herself as an actress and a producer, and I have no doubt she'll bring great vision and creativity to the director's chair. I can't wait to kick ass on wheels!"

I love her sarcasm. It IS sarcasm, right?

Ellen also appeared on Oprah today. At least she isn't completely cancel-happy, right? Here's the complete transcript:

Oprah: Please welcome Ellen Page.
Oprah: Hello Ellen, tell me about the movie.
Ellen: Well, it's about...
Oprah: Please welcome JENNIFER GARNER!!
Jennifer: Omigod! Oprah!
Oprah: Omigod! Jennifer! How's Ben and Violet?
Jennifer: Omigod! They're great!

Okay, it didn't exactly go like that word-for-word, but it's pretty close. I also discovered I had developed bloodshot eyes after watching Oprah. Were my eyes trying to kill themselves, or was it just a coincidence?

Ellen cancels again, to appear on Oprah

Looks like Ellen, who was scheduled to appear on Live with Regis and Kelly again, canceled again and was replaced by a... chef? Just a week ago, she canceled an appearance on Ellen DeGeneres. One might accredit this to the WGA strike, I have my own theories.

If you must have your serving of Ellen Page on TV though, she'll be on Oprah tomorrow along with Jennifer Garner to discuss Juno. [Insert Oprah rant here]
