Popular talk show host Ellen DeGeneres says that people are often surprised by how low-key and quiet she is when not working.
DeGeneres otherwise comes across as vivacious and chirpy on her celebrated chat show "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" which she has been hosting since since 2003.
"I think what's unexpected about me is that when I'm not working, I'm pretty quiet. I like to hike, play tennis, I play golf sometimes. I like to hang out with my animals and my friends," DeGeneres said, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"I don't really have a hobby, but I'm thinking about starting to make picture frames out of macaroni.... No, I'm kidding. I need to find a hobby, though. I'm going to get serious about tennis. I live it, but I've never taken lessons," she added.
