Beto O'Rourke will appear on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show.' But will he dance?

WASHINGTON-- A video of Rep. Beto O'Rourke defending the rights of NFL players to kneel during the national anthem landed him an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Sept. 5.

The El Paso Democrat's response to a question during an Aug. 10 town hall in Houston went viral last week, earning mentions from celebrities including basketball legend LeBron James, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr, actor Kevin Bacon, former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner and DeGeneres. As of Tuesday, the video had been viewed 17.9 million times on Twitter and more than 25 million times on Facebook.
