Alicia and Brandi both mentioned that they’d discovered true sisterhood through their friendship.

“I was telling everyone earlier that we’ve really only been getting to know each other for the last couple of years, but we’ve really grown to sort of becoming sisters,” Brandi said.

“With you, Brandi, I feel like I’ve met someone who is such a true sister,” Alicia added. I can call you and say, ‘Hey,’ and you can call me and say, ‘Hey,’ and we’ll both show up. It’s a very rare occurrence, so I treasure it.”

Brandi wowed viewers so much as a guest host that they wanted her to host her own talk show.

“I usually skip Ellen when there’s a guest host,” one tweeted. But with Brandi Carlile AND Alicia Keys, I couldn’t help but pay attention.”

“After hosting today’s Ellen Degeneres Show, I believe @brandicarlile now needs her own talk show.” I’d watch it every day if I could. Great job, Brandi!! Billie Jean King, AliciaKeys, and Allison Russell Best episode of the show ever,” opined another.
