"He was supposed to be a big man's dog," Pattinson explains on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in Friday's episode. "But he just kind of got stunted."

The talk show host revealed her very cheeky costume during Wednesday's Halloween-themed episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, dressing up as Modern Family star Sofia Vergara, whose slinky green Zuhair Murad gown infamously split along her rear during the Emmys.

"I am easy breezy beautiful CoverGirl from Colombia. Happy Halloween. As you can see, I put my pumpkins out," DeGeneres, who is also a CoverGirl, said, affecting Vergara's accent. "I get so much work with this fake accent," she added.

Mother knows best. Just ask 12-year-old Rocco Ritchie.

As part of his mom Madonna's MDNA tour, "I dance," Rocco – whose dad is director Guy Ritchie – tells Ellen DeGeneres on The Ellen DeGeneres Show airing next Monday.

"Is your mother strict? Is she a good mother?" the host asks, with Rocco's mom standing right there.

"Um, yeah, she's a good mother," he replies, "but yeah, yeah."

"But she's what?" Madonna wants to know.

Says a slyly confident Rocco: "She's a good mother. Yes. That's all I have to say. She's very strict, but in a good way."

The Irish actor made quite the revealing appearance Monday on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, emerging in a bathrobe and eventually stripping down to his skivvies – for a charity fundraiser in the fight against breast cancer.

"If I take this off, does the $10,000 become $20,000?" he asks DeGeneres before taking off the robe.

Jennifer Aniston (Hilariously) Helps Ellen DeGeneres Promote Talk Show's 10th Season

It's hard to say who's funnier – Ellen DeGeneres or Jennifer Aniston. But fans get double the laughs with promos starring both women for the talk show host's 10th season.

"Coming on Ellen's show is different than doing any other show," Aniston says in one clip (above), "because Ellen takes care of you from the moment you get here." Then you see DeGeneres brushing Aniston's famous head of hair, doing her makeup and then vacuuming her armpit and backside.

"It's so fun coming here. She's one of a kind," a disheveled-looking Aniston says. "I love her."

Charlize Theron: My Dogs Help with My Baby

It was love at first sight, says Charlize Theron, for her four-legged best friends and her infant son Jackson, whom she adopted in March.

"It was the most beautiful thing I've ever witnessed," the Oscar winner, 36, tells Ellen DeGeneres on Thursday's The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "From the moment this baby came into our home, those two dogs have never been more in love."

Theron happily considers her brood to be her family – no matter what others may think. She calls her dogs "her boys." They are, she says, "Berkley, a terrier mutt, and he's actually the pacifier thief ... He'll just lay there with the [baby's] pacifier in his mouth," and a pit bull named Blue, who help keeps the actress running on schedule.

"People keep saying, 'Oh you're a single mom,' and I'm like, 'Actually, I'm not. I got two boys helping me out.' It's incredible."

John Mayer: Explosive Interviews 'Woke Me Up'

Originally posted 05/15/2012 02:00PM

For a few months in early 2010, John Mayer was infinitely (and oftentimes, offensively) quotable, sharing his thoughts on Jessica Simpson's skills in the sack and confessing that he had never really gotten over Jennifer Aniston. Amid much backlash, the singer-songwriter went silent.

"I lost my head for a little while. I lost touch and I didn’t want to ask for directions," Mayer, 34, tells Ellen DeGeneres in an interview airing Tuesday. "I did a couple really dumb interviews and it woke me up."

Ellen DeGeneres didn't try to get an official dating confirmation out of Eva Mendes, but she was able to link her and apparent beau Ryan Gosling together by one simple thread – pajamas.

Showing a clip of Gosling, 31, working out in onesie PJs on a recent episode of DeGeneres's show Ellen, the host points out that Mendes, 38, is also a big fan of the relaxing nightwear.

"I don't know if you ever run into him, if you know him in any way, or see him ever," DeGeneres jokingly told Mendes on her show, suggesting she should ask him about the pajamas.

Jennie Garth can talk about her divorce from Peter Facinelli, but weeks after turning 40, there's one thing she says she won't be sharing: her birthday wish.

However, now that she's marked the milestone, she says she's discovered a sense of certainty and confidence.

"What a great time in a woman's life. I wasn't sure what was going to happen or how I was going to feel about it," the former Beverly Hills, 90210 star told reporters Thursday. "But now having turned the corner, it's really empowering."

That inner strength has come in handy. "I have been working toward that, pulling that strength up for a few years now, going through everything that I have been going through," she added. "I really feel that I am in touch with it now."
