Constance McMillen was speechless Friday when the talk show host pulled out an oversized check from the Web site Tonic.Com, a digital media company.

Great. Another “queer studies” major. Just what the world needs.

Ellen: “Along with the check, I’ll take you to the prom. And for this amount of scratch, you better put out - my bitches don’t eat for free.” (Yes I know it was cancelled.)

Where is she going? Wellesley? Major of "woman's studies"?
Here's to her flunking.

Great. So being a lesbian now is enough to merit one a scholarship. What about the kids actually working hard in school and in their communities to EARN a schlorarship?? I guess they made the mistake of being straight. Oh well, when 2 years from now this gal is in college and discovers guys and decides the whole lesbian thing was just a fadish phase, Ellen can demand her money back.

I’m going to get flamed for this but...
Generally speaking I like Ellen. I have gay friends and family. That said, I have a problem when they force their lifestyle down your throat...
This girl screwed many kids out of a prom because she wanted to make a public issue about her sexuality.
Next, someone will want to bring their goat to the prom...

Unless Ellen established a scholarship fund (based on Sexual Orientation)this is taxable income.

Good for Ellen, she puts her money where her mouth is. On 2nd thought, I don’t want to know where her mouth is.

I agree with this being a high school “phase” or prank.
I know a lot of teens who have used this “stunt” to get everyone riled up. Seems to be a real fade today....that and white girls hooking up with black guys as the new “status symbol”.
