Ellen DeGeneres was in tears when she came out to her beloved audience for the last time, taking her final bow on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that is set to air tomorrow.

For her latest show, which will air in full tomorrow, Ellen will be joined by first-list guests Jennifer Aniston and Billie Eilish.

Friends icon Jennifer was the first guest star on Ellen’s show in 2003, and this last episode marks her 20th appearance in total.
