Ellen and partner did well to visit Tanzania and Kenya. The safaris plus the money and the spotlight make both countries invest more in hospitality services. It also goes to show that, LGBTIQQ can equally be spenders like anybody else. To cap it all, the Ellens will give money for The Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund will be a purpose-built facility for scientists helping to save one of the world’s most at-risk species.

This is why they were there:

‘The Ellen DeGeneres Campus of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund will be a purpose-built facility for scientists helping to save one of the world’s most at-risk species, work made famous decades ago by visionary scientist Dian Fossey. Just 880 mountain gorillas remain in the mist-shrouded mountains of Rwanda and the neighbouring countries of Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo.’

So there are 2 things:
Firstly, OMG Ellen is 60! She looks great! And secondly no, I not think that they should have chosen Kenya and Tanzania – it sends the wrong message.
