But the following exchange does provide some insight into the whole voiceover universe. Earlier in the week, Ellen cracked us up when she visited a mall with Britney Spears… … and moved us to tears when she helped bring Katy Perry together with an Orlando nightclub shooting survivor: We adore Ellen. She's the best. Check out her latest celebrity back and forth below:
