This actress provides examples of:
- Bifauxnen: While she wasn't usually one before, she pulled it off several times (See: Hard Candy and Mouth to Mouth). She also adopted a more masculine style after her coming out, completed with a chin-length bob haircut for Freeheld, though she has since outgrown her hair to mid length.
- Cannot Tell a Joke: The basis of this video.
- Celebrity Endorsement: Ellen gets paid to promote... computer networking products for Cisco in a campaign portraying a Grass Is Greener little town as the new tech hub of the universe (which just happens to be in her home province of Nova Scotia).
- Cute and Psycho: Her characters in Hard Candy and Super.
- Cute Bruiser: Her Action Girl (e.g. Kitty Pryde and Boltie) roles tend to be this. This is a defining characteristic of a rollergirl as well.
- Pint-Sized Powerhouse:
- Owned the Juggernaut, bitch!
- And did you see what she did to Nite Owl?
- Not to mention bending Paris in half.
- Escorting much-taller Juliette Lewis to the infield, no mean feat.
- Um... she... did bad things... to Rainn Wilson.
- Older Than They Look: Another reason for her Typecasting.
- Teens Are Short: The reason for her Typecasting below. She looks on the bright side, though:"I'm a total shrimp, which makes me look younger. I'll be able to stay in that area longer, which is good, because there's more competition in your 20s."
- Tomboy: Many of her characters are like this and has adopted this image after her coming out.
