Ellen McLain Speaks!

[Soitisisit]

AHH! She's sounds creepier as herself than GLaDOS! (If GLaDOS gave you nightmares.... *shudder* ) Also, more narcisstic than GLaDOS. Impressive....

[MONKEYJAW89]

I love her normal voice!

[diegonikki]

thumbs up if you recorded the audio in the video then edited it in melodyne!!

[DeathBeNotProud98]

HAHAHHA! OH MY GOSH! "....kinda freaky. HEHEHEHAHAHA"

[bohicaq]

i wish she was my grandma

[poblo234]

wow her personality seems to be in sinc with glados

[sonicrockz1011]

shes too cool! and to one of the comments below me, her husband tweeted that she went back to valve about half a month ago. she went back as a ghost? her husband would of said somethin if she was dead stupid.

[SuperGmodkid]

lol she had to google portals

[kenomatthew]

Valve better give her some motion sickness pills if she plans on playing portal let alone portal 2...

[halomasterforblue]

my dad interviewed her on his podcast she seems really nice

[Silv3rDrag]

Thankfully, she doesn't work for Black Mesa

[iBenJay]

COOLEST OLD PERSON EVER.

[SupperShadowBoom]

evil laugh is evil

[dalibortrex50001401]

muahahahahahahahaha

[raqmarotemar17]

EVIL LAUGH !!! MUHAHAHAHA

[DJacKnifeAlpha]

"Kindah FREAKAAYYYY!! HAAAHHHAHAHAHHH..."

[PandaHero24]

Imagine GLaDOSs voice insted of hers saying that, and GLaDOS is infront of a computer.....the moniter, made out of wheatly

[ihazpokemanz]

has anyone put the evil laugh into a autotuner or something to make it sound like glados? if you have, PLEASE mesage me!

[Pyppyi]

press 7 for evil laugh O-o XD

[dayham09]

no offense but egomaniac freak oh im sorry *SPOILER* "thats what it said on your file and 'egomanic freak'"

[ForeverKokiri]

*Normal-sounding voice* "I loved hearing my voice!" *girly giggle* "And as I told the production team, I have never played a computer game in my life!" *sudden evil voice* "...but I want to play this one." *evil laugh*

Until the last part of the video, I was having difficulty imagining her doing the Announcer voice and GLAdOS...

[Leminid]

I laughed just like u and her did when the vid ended

[TheGeneralCritic]

That laugh is sexy and evil and...so many kinds of awesome.

[SolarShadic]

Holy crap... MOM GET THE SPARE UNDERWEAR AND GET TO THE PANIC ROOM!

[Ozokami698]

She is evil';.;'

[Missmadammozart]

omg she just eminates not only glados's voice ( for obvious resons) but her talking style and reactions. i wonder if that's normal for her or if it's residual from working on the games.

[pivotmasterDM1]

Victory.

[iamthechanceman]

she's the voice of glados and the announcer on tf2, what do you expect?

[darkwee009]

@iamthechanceman She's also married to John Patrick Lowie, the voice of The Sniper.

[comeonfhqwhgads1]

Ellen: *Evil Laugh*

Commentator: Kinda freaky. *Evil Laugh*

[tikifreakazoid]

Holy fuck, does she have an evil laugh.

[scuffy1010]

no...her voice was natural.... THEN PROCESSED... ie oscillators, enveloped, and eqed :)

Melodline ;)

[PrettyMsQueen]

Her voice is so proper it sounds robotic and its great for GLaDOS. o-o

[TheArtsCountess]

When I hear her voice, I hear GLaDOS. I know people may say the same about other voice actors, but I can just tell that GLaDOS is in there somewhere.

[GLaDOSandChell]

I am on her side on this so maby i can get a portal gun

[idugupthegrave]

Is that her normal laugh? Wow lol I wonder if she has kids.

[duhsbo]

I want to merry her, and force her to speak like GlaDOS

[mavoelker]

@duhsbo She's already married... To the voice of Sniper. :D

[EncryptedZProduction]

@duhsbo

the glados voice is done with the computer..

and she is married already.

[TheSwanies]

@EncryptedZProduction No, GLaDOS Is done by Ellen McLain. She was chosen because she was good at having a voice that sounded like a computer. GLaDOS's voice is far too complex to be done by a computer

[PoliceBoxGirl]

...

She scares meeeeeee...

[xharuxharix]

"Kinda freaky~! Hehehahahahahaa~...."

No. That was freaky. o.O

[KeRonSolDier]

evil laugh

[Criticsem]

She sounds nice.



[bmaverick24]

That last laugh sent chills down my spine, GLaDOS in human form, we're screwed.

[Emper0rH0rde]

It's funny how Ellen McLain is probably about old enough to be the grandmother of most of the gamers who lust over her.

[bstarqueen11]

@Emper0rH0rde Even though she only looks like she's in her early/mid-50's

[Emper0rH0rde]

@bstarqueen11 That is true. She's aged magnificently.

[xxXMoonXChildXxx]

That laughing...king of scared me.

[crispycritterz]

YAY Ellen! Be more evil!!!!

[Violetthehedgehog756]

She sounds so evil and her laugh sounds evil, she is perfect xD

[dantreiscool]

HMHMHMHMH! UUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[KMA10k]

"But I want to play this one..." Goddamn, that sounds sinister.

[bobolino20]

hahaahahahahahahahahahhahhhah

[HondaCrab777]

That's GLaDOS alright. Thats like... omg.

[supertaquito94]

That laugh. O.O

[DrayFan12]

lol

[Daynaynaynay]

"I looked up Portal on google" -GLaDOS

O_o

[coomdoom]

Her laugh sounds so evil at the end. I expect her to come out with a fat joke about Chell

[RisingDawnProduction]

@coomdoom I know! It sounded just like GLaDOS! xD

[LfromGaiaonline]

@coomdoom

I might give you an autograph if you wanted to. THAT WAS A JOKE! HA HA! FAT CHANCE!

[megaArrowintheknee]

@coomdoom lol

[astosky]

that laugh D:>

[snowglobecollecter10]

@Caeis lol

[Caeis]

That voice is one handsome potato!

[hoppimike]

Perfect voice! How did they find someone so good! :)

[Gonzalodark2]

@hoppimike you have no idea she sing the turret song opera :P she is PERFECT for this job and i mean perfect it just too much how she is an voice actor who can sing opera in italian she just fit in here perfect xD

[hoppimike]

@Gonzalodark2 haha yeah it is wicked, I mean I think she is one of the bigger reasons why Portal has become as big as it has :)

[SumthinMaybe]

Oh, Mister Johnson!

[AxMamba]

Evil laugh!!!

[CheeseCrusade]

shes the announcer for TF2 as well. and also the combine overwatch lady on the radio in half life 2

[klaz48]

omg its creepy

[gabenewl612]

MUH HAHAHAHAHA

[sergiuung]

That.... is fuking creepy!

[SpiceyMeataballa]

XD press 7 over and over again!

[warnightify]

@warnightify 0:18 Too scary.

[MrStorrytime]

She has an evil laugh. The laugh of the devil himself.

[EpicurusIVXX]

okay im not going to be able to sleep tonight now because of that laugh.

[TheBeatlesFan123100]

Sud I be scared of her?

[Torre1996y]

Now I know why Glados is crazy.... :3 I keed. But still that was damn freaky laugh

[nightmareofsolomon]

Good god she is a sexy beast <3

[Rauxlen]

She has the best laugh ever, if I could marry her voice, i would be down on both knees.

[supergiff8]

She sounds so sinister but in real life she looks like a very nice lady.

[KradSoba]

She almost sounds like Jen Taylor...

[crustymethaddict]

thats one badass bitch

[0AuntJemima0]

Well, fitting evil laugh for someone who directs the combine, directs two teams of mercenaries, shoots you as a turret, and poisons you and tests you against your will.

[shindizzler95]

She sounds propper evil, great job as glados though. EVERYONE GLaD OS means (i think) GLAD operating system because in want you gone she talks about being glad about getting rid of chell, so shes a "glad" operating system? eh? eh? no? eh. worth a try.. that's my theory though..

[ArsonistInUrFirewall]

@shindizzler95 Genetic Life-form And Operating System

[shindizzler95]

@ArsonistInUrFirewall Cheers dude.. It that the official name though?

[ArsonistInUrFirewall]

@shindizzler95 Yes

[jariroth]

@ArsonistInUrFirewall You forgot the Disk. The full name is:

Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating system

[ArsonistInUrFirewall]

@jariroth Yeah i meant to write it, but forgot.

[ARC07693]

@shindizzler95 No. "GLaDOS" means "Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System".

[DisfunctionalMisfunc]

oh god, evil laugh... that actually kind of creeped me out ... <_<

[IHugShortPeople]

I love when he says "kinda freaky" at the end. The way he says it is funny.

[ThePixie2Pixie]

If I talked to her, there would be a normal woman.

[TacticalTesting]

Hahahahaha! The cart has almost reached the final terminus! ...wait, wrong game

[bwillwall]

her voice is scary in real life too!

[UGNJake]

She's the voice of the TF2 Announcer, GLaDOS, and multiple other small roles in other Valve games. And she's never played a computer game?

[Syniqal]

Fuck me, that's a scary laugh... :o

[mrsupergatoloco]

She has an evil laugh but when she sings her voice is very beautiful

[MrBarry1024]

When she says "hearing my voice", she really really sounds like GLaDOS even without editing.

[ifingmutate]

WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! evil laugh of the day..lol

[DJVennim]

I can now see why she voices GLaDOS.

[y512516]

she sound so evil

[lolfreak21196]

Creepy, calm yet seemingly menacing voice... Yep, that's GLaDOS :D

[ilhadosmacacos]

She is adorable. :3

[Noroxi]

Oh wow, that laugh gives me chills.

[n2existance]

She has so much personality! I love her voice

[Yoshimarumono]

I really , really, REALLY want a "The making if portal/portal2" Video

[HelloImSid]

Just a question. Ellen McLain did GLaDOS.

Does that mean she did Caroline too?

[JohnBigOz]

@HelloImSid she did, Stephen Merchant, Ellen McClain, J.K Simmons and some other dude were the only 4 actors used.

Stephen did Wheatley

Ellen did GLaDOS, Caroline and Turreets

J.K Simmons did C. Johnson

and the other dude did the voice for Defective Turrest and Cores.

[HelloImSid]

@JohnBigOz

Thanks!

[vangel4e]

@JohnBigOz Dee Bradley Baker is the guy.



[SquallandCloudlover]

When you listen to her speak... it's so pronounced, defined, smooth and intelligent sounding and it's absolutely perfect for the role of GlaDOS (to whom I will one day propose to ♥)

[jewpiles]

@SquallandCloudlover To be expected, from a classically trained singer.

[ThatNotSoAznKid]

@SquallandCloudlover Ha ha ha. Good luck with that buddy, She's already married to the guy who voices The Sniper in TF2. Go on, try to get within 100 feet of her.

[scalemage0]

@SquallandCloudlover Sorry, Glados is already married to science.

[Gonzalodark2]

@SquallandCloudlover so... you are going to propose to a crazy evil robot... well you will probably end up testing do as you like xD

[doodoodudex]

@SquallandCloudlover shes married

[Evrain64]

@doodoodudex to science.

And to the Sniper from TF2, lucky bastard...

[KaollaTheSu2]

@SquallandCloudlover Sorry guys, she's married. To science...i meant sniper.

[coolguy123466]

@SquallandCloudlover Sorry fellas, Shes married... To science! Actually no, the guy who voices the sniper in TF2

[KreyaHammond]

@coolguy123466 Your comment is the best ever, I just thought you should know. :)

[AndrewDBarker]

@SquallandCloudlover She's married to the guy who voices the sniper. :)

[johnjackass461]

@SquallandCloudlover She's married...

[icyrazor]

I bet it took her 3 months to finish it

[TheCreepyKityMonster]

lol she did sound creepy :P

[MrShadowz1337]

wow, why didn't they put her laugh in the game? Like, fine tuned it and make Glados laugh like that?

[wiredgroup]

I prefer listening to GLaDOS than her. Even though she is GLaDOS...

[RakeBone]

Wow... Ellen McLain is GLaDOS... she is just as evil

[martylou22]

that voice reminds me of some1 but i cant think who

[cLick1333]

@martylou22 The TF2 announcer ?

[BarclayTechHelp]

@martylou22 Caroline?



[ImperatorZor]

If portal was Ellen's first Video Game, it was defiantely a treat.

[Wirrit]

Oh my god, she has the best laugh

[jokiu4]

How do you activate those commentary bubbles?? D:

[djzah]

@jokiu4 when you complete the game, you can choose to activate commentary while playing....

[jokiu4]

@djzah Yeeeeeeeaaaaaah... I know...

The question was more like:

How do I activate the speech bubble to speak?

[djzah]

@jokiu4 ooohh! i never played with commentary so am sorry i cannot help you and sorry for misunderstanding!

[fernaela]

@jokiu4 point at the bubble, and press "e"

[enorma29]

please valve insert this laugh in portal 2

[hottfuzz2]

FREAKKYYYYYY

[lazicful]

But I want to play this one. MWUHAHAHAA!! >:D

[TheRocketVoltage]

Shit, that IS an evil laugh. Even the music shifted to fit it!

[TheJefrey24]

She is a old lady i think

[chinchillas1000]

But where's the cake? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I knew she lied.

[pie189]

shes crazy but a good voice actor

[Halfadomino]

Whoa...

[dominoid07]

DON'T GO TO REDDIT! It will put viruses on your computer, and if you try to play portal it will only let you look at porn! I just want to jump through portals but all I can see is vagina!

[TheVerybored777]

@dominoid07 umm... wut?

[Blizbabe]

Ellen McLain..! I love her voice and I looove the way she speaks. :D

[KevinDolin]

she sounds canadian

[Resorcery]

Thumbs up if you would like to see a video "A conversation between GLaDOS and Ellen McLain for Portal 2

[Umger76]

It's GlaDOS' human form...

[casmith1998]

@Umger76 Now we are fucked.

[LihAniaih]

@casmith1998 Seconded. This woman could level a continent with her voice.

[waldoman7]

O_o holy shit she's just like glados.  random evil in the midst of happy sweetness.

[digitalcyber2x]

TURRETS TO POWER!!!

[BlackDewn]

1 person thinks she´s freaky

[someEsoldier]

[Thunderhawkk]

[komrad36]

@someEsoldier xD

[csSpetzNaz]

[manomow]

@csSpetzNaz its for commentary mode.

[csSpetzNaz]

@manomow oh wow is that available in the xbox version?

[manomow]

@csSpetzNaz I would think so.

[Shadgrimgrvy]

If  Mrs. McLain isn't secretly a super villain I will be very disappointed.

[somerandomteen]

That laugh is creepy.

And uh, the view number is 5000, cool.

[Ryuuken24]

Was she high when she made this, geez...

[Rufuzz2]
