]]> Ellen’s Biggest, Longer and Wider Show premieres on June 27, 2009 and some big names have been 80905A1_DEGENERES_B-GR_02added to the roster.  The TBS variety special will feature appearances by rapper, Kanye West, street magician, David Blaine, and Nick Cannon will serve as the DJ.  

The show will be taped during Chicago’s Just For Laughs festival which marks the first time the event has been held in the United States.

"I’m so excited to be going to Chicago for my variety show," said Ellen DeGeneres. "We’ve got amazing acts, plus I’ve never seen the Liberty Bell up close."

Tickets for The Very Funny Show at Zanies are available through the Zanies box office at 1548 N. Wells St., by phone at 312-337-4027 or online at zanies.com.  Additional Festival information is available at www.justforlaughschicago.com.

If you’re in the area and you can go, I strongly encourage you to check out the festival.  Having grown up in Montreal where Just for Laughs began, I got to attend many events and it’s always a lot of fun and you just can’t beat a live show with Ellen, Kanye, David Blaine and Nick Cannon!
