Quincy Jones got to return to The Ellen DeGeneres Show for an even bigger surprise than he got last time.

Last time, Ellen gave Quincy an appearance on the show to share his story and a plea to Netflix or HBO to air his special as well as a $10K donation from Shutterfly.

This time, Quincy got the news that HBO will indeed air his special and also received an additional $15K from Shutterfly.

So, in total from the Kickstarter and Shutterfly, Quincy has received $75,273 in donations for the special and living expenses.

His special is set to tape on Monday, April 4th at the Teragram Ballroom, which is in Westlake, just west of Downtown LA. There is a 7PM and 10PM show that you can attend. Tickets are $10-$20.

We’re guessing tickets are going to go fast, FYI.

Facing the diagnosis of terminal cancer, Quincy Jones has been more determined than ever to get a stand-up special done before he leaves this mortal coil, whenever that may be.

A Kickstarter campaign started by his friends to shoot that special has gotten over $46K raised as of this post when they were only seeking just under $5K.

This story has caught the attention of Ellen Degeneres who had Quincy on her show yesterday for several surprises including a $10,000 check from Shutterfly as well as an endorsement to HBO and Netflix brass to pick up his special to air or stream.
