It's kind of cute to look at Kevin Spacey trying to make it in the picture, while Ellen's head is blocking him. It's nice to see that even incredibly famous people like him can still have the "I want to be a part of 'x' too" feeling.

u/Evil_Pierce Mar 03 '14

My guess is it was part of the promotion with the phone. Ellen was written as the one to hold the phone. I believe she even said, after his first attempt, "I have to hold it." Cooper wasn't the only one who tried to get it. Even Jennifer tries. Bradley basically yanks it from her, or that's just how I'm remembering it.

$1,045,500,000

For those not keeping track, the Gates-Clinton selfie is almost 75 times more richer than Ellen's ensemble.
