Ellen Degeneres was rushed to the hospital after a drunken accident, according to RadarOnline.com. The star accidentally had one too many glasses of wine and crashed into a door!
The talk show host told the story of her boozy night on The Ellen Degeneres Show. "You know how in gymnastics when you do a one-handed cartwheel and you have to spread all the weight evenly between all your fingers? Well I had two glasses of wine and fell into a door," she said during her opening monologue.
"The dogs were so excited to see us," Degeneres said with a brace on her ring finger, "and I caught the lip of the top step. I was a foot away from the door and I fell into the door and it did something to my finger, I knew something was wrong.”

Despite Portia De Rossi trying to get away from Degeneres and their rocky marriage, she was there to help. “Portia drove me to the hospital — to the emergency room,” she said. “I dislocated my finger. That’s what they call it, which is an incorrect term because I knew where it was located. It was just wrongly located is what it was. So, do you know what they do when you dislocate your finger? It’s very technical. What they do is they take the part that’s dislocated and then they just snap it right back into place.”
Ouch! “Before they did it, I was in incredible pain and my nurse said, ‘Do you want a shot?’ And I said, ‘No, I had two glasses of wine — that’s what got me into this mess in the first place,'" Degeneres told the audience.
