TMZ grabbed these shots of Ellen DeGeneres from her webcam on Ellentv.com -- rehearsing today's show from bed! 
As we first reported, Ellen hurt her back so badly, she'll be interviewing Ryan Seacrest, Lindsay Lohan and others this week in a supine position.
Check out our photo gallery.

1. I'd love to see Ellen and Lindsay in bed! Not Ryan, he's too feminine!

8. Talk about a ratings stunt!
Ellen is on her way out - she has been pulled from the NY station, and that is the first in a nationwide wave.

11. It's enough to make me really thankful that she doesn't get into bed naked. That would be ugly.

14. and p.s. Her show is so badly edited and getting sloppier by the day.....it looks too rehearsed and the fresh new Ellen from a few years ago seems to be over. I think in a year or so she will be looking to do another sitcom or something, just a wild guess since she does all the re-creations and stunt's and stuff on her show and is whoring herself out to every hosting gig (Emmy's, Oscar's, American Idol Give's Back, etc. etc. etc) When you are hot in Hollywood you whore your ass out......
