The announcement that she is visiting included a revelation that she will be taking all 400 of the shows audience with her, announcing to the crowd that went absolutely berserk , she said ‘my birthday happens to be on Australia day! Isn’t that weird that my birthday is on Australia day?’

Debating on whom to give a trip to Australia out of the audience, DeGeneres explained, ‘for my birthday I like to give gifts, right? Everybody knows that, so what I decided instead is everyone here is going to Australia.’ The audience have a choice of staying in Sydney or Melbourne for seven nights in a four star hotel.

The announcement was made alongside Nicole Kidman, an ambassador for Swisse who are sponsoring the trip; Qantas Airlines are also brokering the trip.
