>> You wanna move to LA, I understand. >> It’s my Ellen house. >> Your Ellen house,
what is your Ellen house? >> A hotel. >> The hotel, you called-
>> [LAUGH] >> You know, it’s not my house, I don’t own that hotel. But call it the Ellen House,
tell them to send me some money. >> [LAUGH]
>> Hey, you got recognized at the airport. Do you know you’re a celebrity,
do you feel like you are? >> Yes. >> You do?
>> [LAUGH] >> So you feel different since you’ve been on the show? Before you were on the show,
you weren’t a celebrity.
Now you’re a celebrity. >> Yes.
>> How do you feel different? Like, I’m impossible. >> [LAUGH]
>> Yes, [LAUGH] you are. We gave you a bouncy house
last time you were here. Are you using it? >> Yes. >> How often? >> All day. >> [LAUGH]
>> That’s a lot, all day long. And you just turned five, you had a party. What did you do at the party? >> My momma smashed cake in my face. [LAUGH]
>> Was that fun? >> No!
>> [LAUGH] >> [LAUGH] No? >> It wasn’t. >> Did you smash it back in her face, too? >> No. >> Maybe you can next year. >> [LAUGH]
>> Well, you’re asking for it, teaching him how to do that.
>> And you’re the captain of your class, what does that mean? >> I got in trouble, I didn’t do nothing.
>> [LAUGH]
>> Okay. >> [LAUGH]
>> You just got in trouble, but you didn’t do nothing? >> Yes. >> What did you get in trouble for
doing nothing about? What were you doing nothing of? >> Cuz I was just standing there. >> Just standing there? That’s a good, good excuse. All right, so
you’ve been dancing for a long time. Why do you like dancing so much? >> Cuz I’m in charge. >> [LAUGH]
>> Well, that’s true, you are in charge when you dance. You’re an amazing dancer, too. >> I was a baby. >> You started dancing when
you were a little, tiny baby.
>> [LAUGH]
>> My cousin Thea took a picture of that. >> Yeah, you started dancing early. All right, so you’re gonna dance for
us right now, right? >> Yes.
>> All right. >> [APPLAUSE] >> [MUSIC] >> [APPLAUSE] >> That was good. >> Yeah. >> That was really good. You’ve got some new moves there. What is this one called,
when you scoop down and you’re getting something off the ground? What is that called? >> Like this? >> Uh-huh. >> Like this? >> Yep.
>> [LAUGH] >> Yeah, I’m not gonna do that. >> [LAUGH]
