Ep 15. Jennifer Grey & Derek Hough, Roberto Martin

On season 8 episode 15 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Ellen welcomes two special guests: Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough, along with their dance instructor Roberto Martin. Grey and Hough are well-known as the winners of the eleventh season of Dancing with the Stars, but they are also famous for their roles in the iconic film Dirty Dancing. They sit down with Ellen to discuss their current projects and reminisce about their experiences working together.

Martin, who has worked with the duo for many years, joins them on stage to give a firsthand account of their rehearsals and what it takes to train for such intense dance routines. He shares behind-the-scenes stories and insights into their dynamics as dance partners.

Ellen then surprises Grey and Hough with a special challenge: a game of "Celebrity Dance Charades." The contestants are tasked with acting out popular dance moves and guessing the name of the dance, all while wearing hilariously oversized costumes. The game is full of laughs and surprises, with both teams struggling to guess some of the more obscure dance moves.

Later in the show, Ellen welcomes chef Roberto Martin to the stage to showcase some of his signature dishes. Martin is known for his healthy and flavorful spin on classic Mexican cuisine, and he shares tips and tricks for viewers looking to spice up their own cooking. He prepares a few of his most popular dishes, including his famous grilled chicken tacos and guacamole.

Finally, Ellen wraps up the show with her usual round of giveaways and surprises. From gift cards to charity donations, Ellen always ensures that her audience leaves with smiles on their faces. As season 8 episode 15 comes to a close, viewers are left with a sense of joy and inspiration, thanks to the infectious energy and positivity of Ellen and her guests.
