Ellen DeGeneres addresses the workplace abuse controversy on season premiere: watch

[Jordan Miller]

Ellen DeGeneres talked about the workplace abuse allegations that've practically destroyed her public persona this year.

Exhale, do you forgive ha? 

 

 

[Brat]

Go Ellen! 

[NachoCheese]

Aahhh this will be so awkward to watch    But whatever she says I won't be able to watch her show the same way I did before. 

She will be under a microscope and people will probably analyse her every word and gesture going forward.

Up until Christmas give aways of course  

[Sharkney]

I believe it’s one of those cases where the person is only apologizing because they got caught, not because it’s genuine. Her crocodile tears won’t be working on me. 
I never liked or trusted her, way before all this stuff came to light about her. I always got weird vibes from her and never understood the appeal and praise she would get. I am not surprised to learn that she was a witch. My gut instincts are bang on.

Keep it sis. We all know you’re only doing all this cause you got caught. “Be kind to one another” my ***  

[Towelney]

Ellen Degenerate won’t be getting my views 

[ColdAsFire88]

So I don’t deny that all of this didnt happen but i have found it suspicious that all of this came up when new shows like Kelly Clarksons and now Drew Barrymores are coming up...and we all know how society thinks there can’t be more than one or a few women in the same line of business...but i dont watch ellen and never really did. Sometimes I’d view her interviews with the celebs i like on youtube but thats it 

[Bigno]

I can't wait for the Super heartfelt crocodile tears and the "I thought they had enough privilege by working with me. Ungrateful" but of course, phrased differently. 

[Puppy]

Wait this ***** is still on the air? Wow her friends in high places really did save her *** 

hope her ratings drop

Ellen being horrible is not news. It only blew up because everyone was quarantining and cancel culture on Twitter is at its peak. A lot of people in LA have had/ heard of horrible Ellen experiences

I feel like she would ‘take responsibility’ for the actions of the people directly under her (the ones she fired after the allegations). She can easily just blame everything on them and pretend.

I agree. Imagine the level of... For you to fire people instead of facing your responsabilities. Ha!

Ellen’s apology:

[Mexwero]

She should also apologize to Mariah while she’s at it! 

[Wishmaster]

No thanks

[jennyj]

Of course she still gets a season premiere and a free pass. If this happened to anyone else, especially someone without her ratings... they would have been cancelled right away or had a delayed premiere or had guest hosts until it was all resolved.

Why am I not surprised?  No one wants her crocodile tears and playing the blame game.

I haven't even followed the allegations against Ellen because I had my own terrible experience as an audience member of her show once YEARS ago, and had a friend go through something very similar in spite of my warnings in 2019. I don't know who is responsible but at the end of the day it's her name.
