Ellen's 12 Days of Giveaways is one of the most highly anticipated episodes of The Ellen DeGeneres Show every season, and episode 99 of season 18 is no exception. Ellen kicks off the segment by explaining that the 12 Days of Giveaways is her way of thanking her viewers for their support throughout the year. She jokes about how her team has spent the last few months scouring stores and the internet for the best gifts they can find, and promises that everyone in the audience is going home with something special.
The first gift of the day is a Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra and a TAG Heuer Connected watch, which gets the audience excited right off the bat. As Ellen says, "It's not just any watch, it's a watch that will tell you what time it is!"
Next up is Russell Dickerson, a country music singer who's been making waves in the industry with his catchy songs and infectious personality. Russell performs his hit single, "Love You Like I Used To," and gets the audience swaying along with him. After the performance, he sits down with Ellen to talk about his music career and his plans for the future.
Then it's time for the second giveaway, which is a bundle of products from Ellen's favorite beauty brands. The audience goes wild as Ellen pulls out a giant box containing goodies from L'Oreal, Shiseido, and other top brands. She reminds everyone that they can find all of these products on her website, and encourages them to check them out.
Just when the audience thinks things can't get any better, Justin Bieber takes the stage. Dressed in a sleek white suit and sporting a new "do," Justin is in high spirits as he performs his latest single, "Holy." Ellen joins him on stage at the end of the song, and they do a cute little dance together.
After the performance, Ellen and Justin sit down for a chat. They talk about Justin's new album, "Justice," and how he's grown as an artist and a person in recent years. They also discuss Justin's marriage to Hailey Baldwin and how they've been spending their time during the pandemic.
The third giveaway of the day is a vacation package to an all-inclusive resort in Hawaii, complete with airfare and spending money. Ellen teases the audience by saying they'll have to work for this one, and proceeds to ask them a series of trivia questions about Hawaii. The lucky winner is a woman who has never been to Hawaii before, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of taking the trip.
The rest of the episode is filled with more giveaways, including a Xbox Series X, a year's supply of Impossible Burgers, and a $500 Visa gift card. Ellen keeps the audience entertained with her signature humor and playful banter, and the energy in the room is palpable.
