Ellen DeGeneres honored with the Carol Burnett Award at the 77th Golden Globe Awards.
"Television inspired and influenced everything that I am today -- Lucille Ball, Mary Tyler Moore, Marlo Thomas, Dick Van Dyke ... There's a little bit of all of them in me. ... All I've ever wanted to do is make people feel good and laugh and there is no greater feeling than when someone tells me that I've made their day better with my show."
She also mentioned those affected by the wildfire devastation in Australia, her wife Portia de Rossi's native country.
