Ellen DeGeneres must be going for some sort of Iron Woman title.

That's because the day after she hosts the Academy Awards, the world's biggest entertainment show, she'll do her own daily show live and then appear on Oprah Winfrey's.

"I am going to be exhausted," DeGeneres told the New York Daily News.

To pull it off, she's going to do her daily show live.

And she's also going to appear on Oprah Winfrey's post-Oscar show, taped the morning after the Academy Awards at the Kodak Theater.

"It's the kind of thing that is really important — to be able to have that experience and share that life, the backstage stuff, the footage on my show," DeGeneres said.

For now, though, she is doing her daily show and working on the Academy Awards, which air Feb. 25 on ABC.

How she goes over in the room filled with stars and industry types is important, she said, but she also cares deeply about those watching at home.

"Just like I do every single day on my show, I'm reaching out to a lot more people," she said. "The happiness or laughter, I want that to go through into peoples' homes, not just here, but all over the world."

Then it's back to her daytime show.

"I love it," she said of her regular gig. "It just gets better and better, and more exciting. We keep finding more ways to have fun every day."

Part of that fun is taking the show on the road occasionally, as she did last fall when the daily show was taped in New York.

"We were going to try to go once a year (to New York) and another place," she said. "It's expensive to go on the road."

The Oscars come at a time when DeGeneres' show has generated buzz. It was where "Grey's Anatomy's" T.R. Knight discussed being the target of a gay slur by Isaiah Washington. Her program also had a touching interview with Terri and Bindi Irwin, which put DeGeneres at the brink of tears.

"I want to represent what's happening in the world and kind of go with whatever the moment is," she said. "All that I've cared about since day one is that it's entertaining. You turn it on for an hour and feel good. There are devastating things going on in the world. My job is to make you feel good.

"I never want to sit too long on the heavy," she said, noting the emotions in both interviews. "That's why it's the greatest job in the world. You get to experience all kinds of people and moments."
