On a recent episode of The Ellen Degeneres Show, the legendary actress Jodie Foster made a rare appearance as a guest. Foster, known for her incredible performances in films like Silence of the Lambs and Taxi Driver, hardly ever does press, so it was a treat to see her on the chat show.
In a lively conversation with Ellen, Foster discussed her efforts to stay healthy, including the challenges of taking multivitamins. She also jokingly mentioned how everything now seems to have added vitamins, even orange juice. She humorously remarked, “Pretty soon we’re going to have vitamin C now with even more vitamin C and rose hips.”
Switching gears, Ellen asked Foster about her children and their recent birthday parties. Foster shared that her son’s birthday party got rained out, but they still had a great time playing on the stairs indoors. It seems the simplest things bring the most joy to kids!
Later in the show, Foster discussed her new film, Flight Plan, where she plays a widow who wakes up during a flight to find her daughter missing. The psychological thriller promises to be a thrilling and emotional ride, showcasing Foster’s incredible talent once again.
Joining Foster on the show was the multi-talented actor, rapper, and comedian Nick Cannon. Cannon, known for his roles in movies like Drumline, also had a new film coming out, Roll Bounce.
The episode wasn’t just about Hollywood stars, as Ellen also welcomed a six-year-old dinosaur expert named Joshua Burnson. The young boy, from Shelbyville, Illinois, wowed the audience with his extensive knowledge and enthusiasm for dinosaurs. He even demonstrated how certain dinosaurs would greet each other, using toy models and impressive sound effects.
As always, The Ellen Degeneres Show provided a mix of entertainment and laughter. With Jodie Foster, Nick Cannon, and Joshua Burnson gracing the stage, it was an episode not to be missed. The chat show continues to bring a diverse range of guests and fascinating conversations to its audience.
