Congratulations to KOST/Los Angeles Morning Show Talent Ellen K, as her voice lands her another very high profile gig!
Last year The Academy selected her to handle the voiceovers for the 88th Academy Awards, and it was recently announced that she will also be the voice you’ll hear on Monday, February 15th during the 58th Grammy Awards. In addition to these very prestigious events, Ellen K has also voiced the People’s Choice Awards, the iHeartRadio Music Awards, TLC’s “My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding” and “Hatched” on The CW.
About being selected again to voice music’s biggest night, Ellen K said:
“This year the Grammys are live everywhere for the first time, and with Adele back on the Grammy stage and so many other amazing performances — I know the entire Grammy team is gearing up for a spectacular night, and I’m grateful to be a part of it.”
Watch the Grammys on February 15th at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT and hear Ellen K, or catch her at 7 pm ET/4 pm on Sunday, February 28th during the Oscars.
A California native, Ellen was born in Palo Alto while her father was receiving his PhD there. She began her career in radio while in college. Originally a Veterinary Science major, she took an internship at a radio station randomly and after one fill-in shift behind the mic she was hooked. She switched her major and graduated with honors in Radio/TV/Film from Purdue University where her father was a professor. Over the course of the next decade, larger market radio jobs lured Ellen back to California, first in San Diego then San Francisco and finally KIIS-FM in Los Angeles.
Ellen regularly appears on “The Talk” and CBS’ award winning GRAMMY telecast, as well as the CBS show “Home for the Holidays,” and is the narrator for “My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding” on TLC.
Ellen was recently honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the annual Genie Award, and the inaugural Airblazer award commemorating “Women Inspiring Women in radio.”
Ellen resides in SoCal with her husband and 13-year-old son, Cal as well as her Aussie, Cali.
