Many of you have the same question we did: who was that girl sitting next to Ellen Page at the Oscars last night? A sister? Cousin? Personal trainer, as Queen Latifah would claim?

I wondered the exact same thing, noticing that she took up quite a bit of elbow room on the arm rest they shared (which if you were strangers placed next to each other at an award show, you probably wouldn’t do) and beaming really brightly every time Ellen was mentioned, especially in reading her name for the best actress nom.

my guess is that it’s her “roommate.”

FRANK, a rag in Ellen’s hometown apparently has a big spread (hehehehe) on Ellen this week complete with a photo of this Paula Robbins girl. Has anyone actually seen it?
