Ellen DeGeneres is one of the most beloved people on the planet, so of course the biggest celebrities in the game stopped by to help her celebrate her birthday. The television host/activist, who turned 60 on January 26, called upon her famous friends to ring in the milestone in Hollywood over the weekend.
Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend all shared their photo booth snaps from the party. The crew of friends were all showing off their best Zoolander mugs except for Legend, who flashed his signature smile. Olivia Munn, Scooter Braun, Amy Schumer, Meghan Trainor, Jennifer Aniston, Kathy Najimy, Tig Notaro and Cassandra Grey were also in attendance. Degeneres later retweeted one of Kim's pics with the caption "Having the best birthday." Check out some of the party's highlights below.
During her two-hour birthday episode on Feb. 1, Ellen was moved to tears when her wife Portia de Rossi gifted her the most thoughtful present. Portia surprised the host by announcing she is building the Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund next to Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda, which was special given Fossey (an American scientist who studied gorillas in Africa) is one of DeGeneres' heroes. You can watch the video below.
"Now, you will join Dian as a protector and champion of these amazing animals, the mountain gorillas," de Rossi said. "Happy birthday."
