You’d think then she would have learned something from the first time she was cancelled and did better next time. Power went to her head and she got what she got. I always suspected she wasn’t as nice as she pretended to be. anyway. I’m sure she is comforted by her millions this time around.

I think the first cancellation she’s referring to is the cold shoulder she got for coming out.

Interesting that there is no self-reflection, it’s just “people turned on me”. Even past guests had stories about her bad attitude.

Like what? The only one I recall is the monotonous nepotism nuisance, who complained about a birthday invitation instead of playing along with the silliness of show.

Brad Garret, Lea Thompson, Greyson Chance (young singer she wanted to turn into the next Justin Beiber), Mariah Carey when Ellen tried to get her to admit her pregnancy. Calum Scot, Ryan Phillippe, Andy Richter.

I never heard anything about Ellen from anyone other than mean snarky bitxes who are always on the lookout for a shark frenzy to join in.

Lori Loughlin was on Curb playing her evil conniving self, so…

My only beef with The Ellen Show revolved around goofy games uisng perfectly edible food as props…while little children eat Mud Cookies in Haiti…with perhaps a grain of rice. I wrote management. Never heard back.

Yeah, everyone loves you … until they find out you’ve been running a t0xi¢ talkshow.

All the hullabaloo around this was ridiculous. If only she would have just told them to [blank] themselves, that would have been the end of it.

I understand that her show was a toxic workplace. Most of the extreme bad behavior stemmed from producers on the show but Ellen was in charge and she has her faults as well. Imagine if she actually wanted to end her show back in 2017, I believe, her legacy wouldn’t had ended this badly. James Corden was outed as being a diva and mean but it didn’t get this much coverage. Same with Jimmy Fallon, Jay Leno, and David Letterman. So all of talk show hosts are divas & meanies? Yeah but Ellen got beat tf up and cancelled immediately. Hmm I wonder why…

Book a surgery, change your name to “Len,” and all will be forgiven.

She forgot ( or thought that it didn’t apply to her ) ” Be nice to the people you meet on the way up you will meet them again on the way down”

Could someone please tell me why she never tried to defend herself. It seems to me at least outwardly that she just sat back and let it happen. Did I miss something?
