Funk you . I hate you. You're a Republican  I hate your kind

I'm not a Republican, I identify as a Democrat, but I'm not so stubborn that I can't be bipartisan on certain issues. You're a bigot. You generalize categories of people and openly hate them. In the past you have stated you hate all straight men and now all republicans. I don't care for extremest republicans but to judge a whole group of people for the action of a few is ignorant. You have a lot of hate in your heart, I hope you can heal one day.

I’m still mad the interviewer didn’t ask her about the way she treats her guests on her show. She’s made over 15 male celebrities take their shirts off or show their abs, she gets male ********* on her show all the time and she does this whole segment with a male celebrity in which she shows pictures of their bodies. 
 

Don’t forgot how she treated Mariah and how rude she is to so many of her guests. The interview made her sound like the ultimate narcissist and I’m glad the interviewer didn’t hold back. She’s a terrible human being and she doesn’t know the terrible things she’s done.

 

Blaming it on men and ***ism is the easiest thing to do. I’m sure if she was a POC, she’d blame it on white people and racism. Accept that you’re a terrible person and you’ve done bad things. She’s clearly learnt nothing.

So uncomfortable to watch...

I have no sympathy for this lady. She has done a lot of great things for the LGBT community, but her show just sucked major balls... The segments where she would showcase random people's talents were really cool, but she always treated her celebrity guests like garbage. Like, the entire premise of her interviews was always to put her guests on the spot and make them as uncomfortable as possible.

Ellen you received hate due to your behavior towards your employees, not because you’re a woman… Allegedly

it's the "allegedly" for me

I like her I think she's a good person deep down but fame changes people. Wishing her all the best in her future endeavors.

 

[Spicechinodiva]

A former employee said it best. 

 

Warner didn't fire her, the public did. 

 

If anything she should probably work with animals, she treats them better than humans, well I would say her wife is the only exception of who she respects and treats like a human being. But, she probably isn't a people person at all. 

[jordeezy river red]

It really sucks because Ellen seemed like a good rolemodel for LGBT from the outside. Can't any successful people just be who they really are???

what the actual hell … she literally took his clothes off when he tried to cover up. Apparently a man saying ‘no’ means nothing.

Trying to brighten this thread up with a little known fact: Ellen’s brother, Vance DeGeneres, was a guitarist in the new wave band The Cold in the early 80s. They’ve been inducted into the Louisiana Music Hall of Fame! Here they are singing “Mesmerized.”

You know, it really bothers me that this mega successful woman, who built a career around making people laugh and being exorbitantly charitable, in the span of one year based on purely allegations alone, is being harshly criticized by people, including in this forum. The amount of charitable causes over the course of 19 years, the amount of LGBTQ+ advocacy she’s done, is suddenly meaningless and her character is called into question based on allegations? It’s so easy to pick people apart. And like many celebrities, Britney Spears included, we the GP have a very remarkable pattern of building people up and then tearing them down. People crave tearing others down, especially those who are doing/have done so well. And it’s frankly sad. When I read the allegations with reference to a “toxic workplace” about Ellen basically being a “*****” off set, I didn’t think “she must not be genuine” I thought: ****, if your job is to be 100% smiles, 100% laughter, 100% positive and 100% “on” all the time in your day job, one deserves to be however *** **** b*tchy they want in their off time. If she wants to be a ***** when she’s not on stage, all the power to her. She shouldn’t have to be 100% 24/7. People aren’t perfect. And her friendship to the G W Bush some say? So what? Michelle Obama is friends with G W Bush FFS. It’s public knowledge and the Obamas have been open about that. One thing I’ve noticed in recent years is a major shift of tone from Bush on major issues facing America. He’s definitely more progressive than his presidential years. And since when was progress of someone’s change of character a bad thing and to be discounted? People building bridges and reconciling differences in a world so divided and filled with hate is a *** **** good thing. 
 

I love Ellen. I think she’s a good person. And I think this whole ordeal is very unfair to her and overly exaggerated. 

[Spicechinodiva]

The gay community never asked for Ellen to somehow become the spokesperson, it's the same with Rupaul as the face of drag. 

 

Many gays can't relate to Ellen's super hetero***ual approved image of what's an acceptable gay, someone who hides their ***uality and not flaunt it for the world to see.

Well said, even the Mario Lopez interview people are posting here is ridiculous, it was in good fun and Mario is shirtless half of time.

Tbh the attempt to cancel her was indeed exagerated considering what the allegations were. It did feel like people were happy to have an opportunity to take down a lesbian woman who been at the top for so long.

Well, the public felt betrayed. Someone who is nice and bubbly in front of camera but an a......e behind it towards the staff needs a reality fix. The audience felt understandably cheated into believing Ellen's show was a nice workplace, now they had the truth  in mind while watching the show. It's unsettling.

And you can't deny the way Ellen did not react to these rumours for years or even decades shows how she was reluctant to make a better workspace and be a better multimillion dollar host for the staff. Mind you the outroar of her dumping hand the staff during covid because she streamed from home. She has millions of dollars and acts this foolish in the middle of a crisis? Hell she deserves the backlash and also the intensity of it.

George W. Bush is a war criminal. Period. So much for weapons of mass destruction 🙄.
