Local man appears on today’s ‘Ellen’ show

A local man’s dancing has captured the eye of a famous talk show host.

Robin Ingle of Pleasant Hills told News Center 7 she and her husband are in Los Angeles and went to The Ellen Degeneres Show. During the opening segment in which the audience dances, Ingle’s husband Thom is seen dancing.

Ingle said host Ellen DeGeneres likes her husband’s dancing so much he’ll be returning as a guest on Monday’s show.

“I’m so excited I can hardly talk about it,” Ingle said. “They’re paying for our hotel and other expenses for the weekend.”

Ingle said the first show on which her husband will appear airs at 4 p.m. today. He will be on Monday’s show with more.

Local viewers may tune to channel 7 to see The Ellen Degeneres Show. More about the show is available at www.ellentv.com.
