  • who the HELL told you gladys was a man? -_- SHE just called ellen on her bday this year....

  • @rororiri1234 He (Scott) called Ellen as Gladys' voice. If Gladys was real she'd be about 94 right now. Scott has been doing various voices for radio, etc. for some time so an old lady's voice is a piece of cake for him. He also does a redneck-type character on YouTube.

  • man this isn't funny anymore.. i thought gladys was reaaaaal :(

  • @breekwhal For some reason, I always felt it was a man's voice. Just little slips from one video to the next. Also, the character is too professional in nature. She does ads, appears on radio shows, and has comic CDs, etc. for sale. Awfully savvy for a lady over 90 yrs. old who never "wants to leave her house". I guess the recording studios come to her. LOL. Once I listened to the news report, it just confirmed what I suspected all along.

  • just like mrs. Doubtfire. Who cares! Still funny!

  • Lots of older women and men are seriously funny and real...and Ellen isn't a liar!!! Lots of old women are freaking hilarious and have sharp wit. Visit an elderly care home someday. You will have more entertainment there than most for your mind. I used to work at one and had a hilarious old lady there= 2 of them. It was awesome. And also a ton of older people hate to leave and never even want to go to the next city. I knew people like that in SC> They are old southern- Ellen doesn't lie !!!!

  • @singpraise247 All of what you said is true, but Gladys isn't one of those little old ladies. I won't repeat my comments that I just made to "cocoheartsable" just now, since you can read about Scott Hardy in that response right below this one. Ellen isn't "lying". She's never claimed that Gladys is real....she just "talks" to her. Technically, Ellen isn't responsible for verifying who she's talking to.

  • @singpraise247 LOL Gladys has a Twitter accnt, often calls the Austin radio stations, does ads for a local hamburger franchise (among other things), does voices on CDs with comics like Larry the Cable Guy, just to name a few of the things "she" does. Pretty savvy stuff for someone who should now be 93 yrs. old & doesn't like to "get out of the house". I guess the record & ad producers bring all their equipment out to her house. BTW, Scott Hardy applied for a patent on the Gladys Hardy brand.

  • GLADYS HARDY 2012 :D :D :D

  • How do I find the video where Ellen calls her the first time?

  • @Micben123 you search 'I love Jesus but I drink a little'

  • Look like a possum up an died on his head!!!!Lol

  • Oh so Gladys isn't real? :( Aw that just broke my heart. :(

  • does it matter is gladys is a guy or a woman she/ he is really funny

  • Dang. I've been had! I seriously thought Gladys was a real granny! Great comic-he really sounds like someone's grandma.

  • I LOVE GLADYS!!!! <3

  • I know the real Gladys!

  • im really sad because i found out gladys is not a real lady. like seriously im really upset about that...

  • @whalewatcher321 not a real person?? how did you find out? o.o

  • @nikkichanyaoigirl Look at the posts at the top of the video. Everything you need to know is right there, also in some of the earlier comments. That's how she knew.

  • @whalewatcher321 gladys is very real... whoever told you she isn't is an idiot. And if you read something somewhere and believe it, you could be an idiot.

  • @beenn15 I read it in quite a few sources...But on another note...I really hope that someday you will be confident in yourself enough to not call strangers idiots for no good reason. I am definitely not an idiot...im on my way to getting a PhD. Have a wonderful day, stranger..and please try to not insult people without knowing them.

  • @beenn15 Gladys is played by a man xDD you can find it in the search box. "ellen degenerous old spice man" search it. 'she' isnt real:P

  • @whalewatcher321 me too :(

  • I wonder who this REALLY is?

  • just a little to thin the blod... Oh god she is just to funny

  • Oh Love Gladys!

    "Love Jesus but I drink a little"

  • GLADYS! she's so funny, i wish she would come on the show one day.

  • yes that glady;s is a fake

  • @voidedsoul2002 but really, that doesn't matter!

    even if she's fake, that doesn't make her any less funny!

    Every time i hear her i can't stopp laughing, so i don't care who she is, as long as she stays funny :)

  • They need to bring in Gladys! She should be a special guest because she's a hilarious character!

  • fucking hell gladys rules! this really is comedy gold, just when i thought u yanks couldn't do comedy i come across this.... great great great

  • Yes, the guy who does Gladys' voice is pretty good. He does radio commercials too, though I haven't heard anything new from him recently.

  • @widdat

    wait a minute...so is that true? is it fake? too bad =/ but it's still funny..

  • Just read back through the comments. The details of who she really is are explained in several places.

  • @JacksontheMack

    i read through quite a few comments actually...but everybody seems to say something different...some say "she"'s a comedian from texas and some that it's a lie...

  • Gladys needs her own show....NOW!

  • I LOVE GLADYS! she is so hilarious(:

  • "Gladys" is right about the Preamble.

  • ty giggles always  ;-)

  • is there a video of the guy whop does gladys's voice on youtube doing gladys?

    Did Ellen say anything about it after founding out, or did she know all that time.

  • I know he has a myspace. I saw information about it on another comment somewhere.

  • @lantana74

    Oh, is the whole Gladys thing scripted / set-up, it's ok because it is funny, l just thought Gladys was real, and really random :-)

  • What is wrong with some of you people?

    but i love Ellen - GO ELLEN!

  • ANYWAYS.... Gladys is hilarious. I love that Ellen has stayed in touch with her.

  • so not being allergic to milk is wrong?

  • not being allergic to milk is abnormal too. love is love. people should only care if a loved one loves a dangerous person.

  • o sry its 1500 different animal species

  • what about the fact that there is something like 100 different types of species that practice homosexuality yet humans are the only ones that practice homophobia how does that prove that homosexuality is against nature you ignorant fuck Homophobia is actually against nature

  • Explain why they are deviants, and then you can say THE END, 'till then... shut up.

  • This is awesome. Homosexuals are amazing people. The world is changing so open your minds. You can't go around with so much hate in your lives.

  • @thermos87 Without homosexuals, we'd have no Elton John. I wouldn't want to live in a world without his music.

  • @Cerberusballs You meant to say without heterosexuals we'd have no Elton John, surely? His parents must have been to get him here in the first place.

  • @jesuisbambi Well, yeah.  I mean, that kinda goes without saying.

  • Ellen is a beautiful lady who has gained respect from all over the world.. regardless of her sexuality or whatever, she as a human is ALOT better than many people... we're all humans and we all make different choices. shemade hers and i 110% respect that. She's my idol and i look upto her. the thing shes done for so many people you would never be able to do.. so sh and let's all live in peace! :D:D

  • lol how is ellen perverted? She just likes other girls, what's so wrong with it.. i don't go with the media i go with my heart, you're a mindless idiot for thinking such rasial thing, what re you? brown?

  • okay so theres so many things that are morally wrong with what u just said...definition of homosexual is when someone is attracted to someone of the same sex...u, who i am now worried about because u said this, took that and twisted it into being something completely offset and unnatural..if u notice something..NO ONE ELSE was thinking about perversion or anything like that..so apparently you have some things to think about yourself rather than what other ppl do and dont do...

  • PRICELESS! Ellen, I LOVE You. Sincerely from my heart, you're an amazing positive role-model. Greetings from Brazil! - C

  • ... you're a sick straight perverted loser man.. Wtf are you talknig about? Gay is cool sorry that you don't know what that means go suicide. HUMAN RIGHTS.

  • I LOVE Gladys!!!! OMG!! Shes soooooooo funny!

  • how old is this one???

  • lol!! diz hilarius!

  • I love Gladys. I wish she was my grandma. HAH.

  • Life got u down. Check out Coloria "Let Go"

  • quit saying gladys inst real because shes freaking hilarious! we jsut want to enjoy her!

  • ELLEN RULES

  • the first one seamed real, but this one,, ehh. no.

  • c'mon everyone ruined gladys for me :[

    i like dit better when i thought she was real x]

  • i don't think that was the real Gladys

  • I'm impressed that Gladys loves Ron Paul! And by the way Ellen D...his name is Jason Castro, and he's a pretty talented guy! (possum hair...pffft whatever.)

  • love it, but am i the only person who thinks Gladys isnt real?

  • you're not

  • No, you are not the only one. Just read back through the comments. People give information about who Gladys really is. ;)

  • Who is Gladys? (I'm from Austria so I can't see this show... only on the internet)

  • A while back, Ellen was taking calls on her show and an 88 year old woman named Gladys from Austin, Texas phoned and told Ellen to move the plant behind her head because she looked like alfalfa. XD The next day, plant moved, Ellen called her back and they had a hilarious conversation, Gladys including the extremely famous line, "I love Jesus but I drink a little." Those words corpsed Ellen she was laughing so hard. Love the Gladys. LOVE HER.

  • Thanks! :D

  • chemiealex, it is a guy named Scott Hardy, who does comic work in Austin, Texas. My friend who lives near Austin has seen his appearances in a comedy club there. He called Ellen, using an old lady's voice. Ellen has made "him" a regular on the show, since people enjoy his "Gladys" character so much. The Ellen show goes along with the joke, since it's harmless and funny. "Gladys" has become a favorite on the show and calls in now and then.

  • Thank you!

  • you ruined that for me.

    we didnt need to know that.

  • ICarlyTodd, if you notice, the third comment on this video from almost a year ago, people were suspecting that something wasn't right about this. In fact, people were skeptical even the first week Gladys ever called the show. There have been lots of comments about who Gladys really is. I've even listened to a clip from a news show that someone found. After you listen to that, you'd have to be an innocent rube to swallow the idea that Gladys is really an old woman calling in all the time. Sorry.

  • @cagigem Hey you mentioned you listened to a news clip? What is it exactly you listened to?

  • @sbabe325 They probably listened to the same show that I did. It's a public radio program. The information for it is in several places. Just google/search for: "Weekend America, Gladys Calls". Down that page is the link to the article. I had to listen to the audio of the report. I don't think it's scripted out in text. But it does explain who Gladys really is. Lots of people have mentioned it, too, people who know the guy from the Austin area. Supposed to be a nice guy and funny.

  • @cagigem wow, a guy.....that's impressive!

  • @cagigem lies..........

  • @cocoheartsable Gladys is actually voiced by a male comic, Scott Hardy. He works in & around Austin as an emcee, does radio voice work, & competes in comedian contests. His "old lady" voice is really quite good. He's a great guy, who does a lot of work for seniors (Meals on Wheels) & animal support groups, including the Austin zoo. He does the voices for Gladys & her son on the "Gladys" comedy CDs, which he has for sale. Part of the money from those goes towards those charities I mentioned.

  • @dcr474 idc.

  • @cocoheartsable Yet you called someone a liar. Why bother if ydc?

  • @dcr474 it was sarcasm. If I read my reply in my head, it would have been voice as "lies................" in a joking matter. In your head you take everything up the butt and you made it your duty to tell everyone how it is because you like to waste your time. I knew Gladys was actually a voice of a man before you informed be. You're fucking annoying.

  • @dcr474 again. I am joking because idc.

  • it is the real Gladys you prikes!!

  • that's right...you can hear the written jokes... plus the voice is higher and faster...

  • i think she was real the first time.. and now they just got an actor to play her.. cuz this time it sounds really stadged

  • I love Jason. :(

    He is my sister-in-laws friend

  • Comment removed

  • No she's not... search on google..

  • Funny as hell tho' ROFLLLLLLL !!

  • why does she sound different??

  • i agree she does sound different

  • i love gladice but is she real?

  • It's NOT a real woman,Gladys is a guy named Scott Hardy. He is commedian from Austin TX

    He has also done voice work on Larry the Cable Guy's Christmastime in Larryland

  • she sounds different!

  • Ellen should do this more ;D!

  • go Gladys 88 yrs old, drinks a little, so funny. What a woman!!! Call her again and again Ellen, she loves Jesus, and we all love her!

  • Comment removed

  • Who gives a shit if it's fake or not?

    Geez! The point is, did you laugh? That's all we need in the world - more laughter. Not some Posters dissecting whether or not it's real.

  • exactly the point, like, are comedies and sketches real? they are staged and stuff, but they are still funny. So even if it's a sketch, it's damn funny

  • I was just thinking listening to Gladys that she sounded like Larry the Cable Guy's impersonations of older women. It sounds like one of his voices.

    But the fact that Gladys loves Ron Paul---priceless! Smart lady.

  • Gladys is funny as!

  • I read an article by some news program that checked Gladys out pretty extensively and it seems she really is fake, as a lot of people had suspected beforehand. It's the voice of a guy who lives in Austin.

  • i really hope its not true, but i read somewhere that she's a fake. she calls a local radio station all the time and has a fake website or something. and its all fake.

  • i waaaaaant to watch ellen here in croatia...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­a

    i'm gonna cry now...

  • lol i would 2 if i couldnt watch her,

  • i hope shes not a fake

  • ellen said shes real..

  • lollol i love Gladys

  • i love you elllen sooo much

    i love you elllen i love you sooo much i love u ellen

    wafaa

  • I think gladys is fake...

  • She sounded the same. She sounds like the woman from "Throw Mama From the Train"

  • Yes, I thinks it's Gladys, although I don't reckon she's as pissed as last time. She's funnier pissed.

  • I think it's really Gladys...

  • that aint gladys

  • sehr lustig!!! total klasse!!!

  • her voice is not the same! THIS IS NOT THE REAL GLADYS!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH but its still funny xD

  • That's what I thought.

  • how do u know that ?

  • Its not the same voice as in the first video, when gladys called Ellen

  • It's the same voice, but since she or "he's" a guy, he doesn't always get the voice exactly the same every time. That's very hard to do, no matter how talented you are. Scott Hardy was just in the finals of the Funniest Person In Austin (FPIA) contest, but he didn't win first place. He should have done his Gladys character. Maybe he'd have won. :) He probably tries to keep "her" under wraps these days, though. He should appear on Ellen's show someday.

  • it's an actor? Oh, man that's something else then...I mean it's still funny but, I don't know...just not that good...

    How do you know? Are you sure about this?

  • He/she sounds very different in comparing to an other Video where she is calling Gladys..

    Maybe now it's a new somebody because the real Gladys died or something?...

  • lmfao

  • I wonder does Ellen know now that Gladys is a male comedian acting as a woman. Sort of like Tyler Perry when he plays Madea.

  • She probably does know by now. On the very first one, Ellen seems like she doesn't know, but remember, she's an actor. I read that the Gladys CDs they sell benefit an animal group, so maybe t hat's why Ellen thinks it's okay to play a little joke on the audience. I don't know for sure why she does it, though. Gladys, whoever he is  ;), is kind of funny anyway.

  • his name is scott hardy a comedian from austin i think. idk i just read it from someone's comment.

  • I think Ellen is a very reall person so i dont think shed get a comedian to do it. I think this is real and I never thought it was fake for a second. Just wish shed come on the show. lol talkin bout Jason Castro=)

  • with her being that old..maybe ellen should go out to her house

  • LOL....

  • try not to ask yourself if it's real or not, who cares its comedy its funny its supposed to make you laugh.... that's all

  • i know ...it's so funny ..cannot stop laughing ..gladys is hilarious who ever it is ...

  • doesn't her voice sound a little bit like a guy's voice for you?

  • I thought it was funny,and it is but now it sounds a bit fake

  • hunny take my money not my day

  • I think the "I love Jesus but I drink a little" video is probably real...its sounds like it is... but maybe they got a comedian to do the rest so that they could make it a regular feature on her show...

    I dunno...?

  • Her voice sounds fake. That disappoints me. It would've been awesome if she's real.

  • Who really cares if it is a real person! It is funny AS!!!!

  • Why does knowing the truth bother so many people? It's still funny. Doesn't matter who is doing the routine, just enjoy it and laugh.  It's okay to love Ellen and Scott Hardy, too.

  • i dont think its a man!! i think its a genuiune old woman lol too funnyy

  • now that i listen more and more she does sound like a guy.

  • I love it! Madder than an old wet hen. Gotta coin them.

  • I love all these Gladys videos. I want to call Gladys too!

  • If it's true that Gladys is really a male comedian (like Dame Edna?), does Ellen know? I mean, has she ever let on in an interview or on her show that she realizes she's not really talking to an elderly woman?

  • This was a frequent routine between Ellen and Larry the Cable Guy..listen closely to his voce.

  • The voice is similar, but people below are saying it's a well-known comedian in Austin who calls radio stations as this character.

  • No, it's not Larry the C. Guy, but Scott, who actually IS Gladys, has worked on an album with him.Both Scott and "Gladys" are credited as "voices" on Larry's "Christmas in Larryland".The humor on that CD is much cruder than the mild stuff that "Gladys" does on Ellen and her own CD. You can see Gladys' bio on ArtistDirect, where they say "Gladys may or may not be real", then they go on to explain that many people suspect Scott is Gladys. Some know for sure. LOL. I think he's funnier than Larry.

  • Yes, Scott Hardy, as Gladys, called KLBJ before Ellen, & now calls other stations in the area & other states, too. I'm not sure about the "what's his face's mother" thing you're talking about, though. "Gladys" talks about her grandson "Dennis/Denny" quite a bit. Is that who you are thinking of? There is another guy in Austin, Russel Miles, who does old lady radio pranks, too. He goes by "Melba Jackson". I think Scott's old lady bit is pretty funny. He does commercials, too. Talented guy.
