Ellen DeGeneres had a few choice words to say about the infamous dress that caused mayhem throughout social media last week. Not only that, but she also welcomed the family involved in the initial craze on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
People reported that DeGeneres herself saw the dress as being white and gold instead of the blue and black color the dress actually is. “I know there are people out there who see blue and black- and those people are crazy,” she said.
She also joked that it was a reason for why she has never been seen wearing dresses in the first place.
The owner of the dress came onto the show with her family, including the girl who originally posted the dress on her Tumblr page. As previously reported, the young woman posted a photo of the dress, causing mayhem when people couldn’t agree on what color the dress was as people wondered why they didn’t see the same color.
Even celebrities got into the action, tweeting their own thoughts on the color.
Cecilia Bleasdale had originally given the photo to Grace, her daughter, but then the girl and her friends got into a debate over what color the dress was. Grace reportedly saw white and gold while her now husband, Keir, thought it was black and blue. Her friend was the one who posted it on Tumblr, thereby causing families to go to war over a dress.
DeGeneres gave the family $10,000, as well as a honeymoon for the newlywed couple. Check out the video below to see the dress in all of its blue and black glory.
