DeGeneres the voice of her party line (4)

I believe the answer is:

dory

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'degeneres the voice of her' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'party line' is the wordplay.
'party' becomes 'do' (do can informally mean a party).
'line' becomes 'ry' (abbreviation for railway).
'do'+'ry'='DORY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dory that I've seen before include "Sea-wolf" , "another fish wanted" , "Fish of mackerel family" , "Marine fish; rhymes with fable" , "Fish and flat-bottomed boat" .)
