The talk-show host brought a local Chicago woman to her show after her generosity toward a homeless woman went viral. DeGeneres was so inspired by the story and told the crowd how she admired the woman’s giving ways so much that she wanted to give her own Ed by Ellen boots away. “I thought I would give you my shoes. They’re your size exactly. We’re the same size,” said DeGeneres. “And I always keep my money in it, so I have $10,000.”
