it was kind of crazy to watch the downfall of Ellen degenerous because I remember watching her and like everybody loved her it was kind of it's probably the biggest fall off that we've seen for like a celebrity in terms of their public uh favor that I've probably ever seen show was massive yeah everybody watched the show Ellen's trying to make a comeback with her new standup special although its reviews have mostly been terrible she spends most of that's not her fault it's because she's a woman yeah it's not her problem oh come on come on
you can't blame that on her responding to her being kicked out of showz which began when someone posted just one single tweet right now we all need a little kindness you know like Ellen degenerous always talks about she's also notoriously one of the meanest people alive respond to this with the most insane stories you've heard about Ellen being mean the Tweet posted in March 2020 received bad enough replies to begin Ellen's downfall I worked at Real Food Daily served her in porer of brunch she wrote a letter to the owner and complained about my chip
nail polish not that it was on her plate but just that it was on my hand I worked till closing the night before and this was the next mour almost got me fired the N I'm the kind of person that that's so so [ __ ] insane I don't even believe it what the [ __ ] is porsa that's like her wife or something like that Karen story was so unbelievable the person who wrote it went on Inside Edition this former waitress claims she was threatened with a 2 we suspension after ell degenerous complained about
of all things her chip fingernail polish I remember just being like really but the story shared back on Twitter were only getting worse I once worked at Warner Brothers one day I was in the elevator and elen Entourage came in naturally I held it for and asked her what floor she was getting on her assistant answered third floor 30 minutes later I got a call from my boss saying I was fired because I was harassing her what like I what the [ __ ] an old friend worked on her a lot and smiled and said
good afternoon to her one day and she became unhinged who do you think you are you don't look at me yada yada she said porsa was with her and seemed embarrassed and tried to calm her down has forever changed my opinion of her the response dude am I the only person that's like I hear this and I'm like you know citation please how do we even know this is true went on and on and on all of which being compared to Ellen's classic catchphrase I always end each show by saying be kind to one another
audience member Donna de Mato then went public with her degrading experience on the show they tell you you know you can't be smarter funnier than Ellen she's the comedian and the star not you don't be funnier than Ellen that's going to be hard considering she's not that funny to begin with if you've been a comedian your whole life and you're afraid a random audience member will stage you maybe you're just not funny Dana then revealed that Ellen's completely different when the cameras turn off how does the Ellen we see on TV compared to the Ellen
you saw when the cameras stopped rolling totally different she would only speak to the audience when the cameras were rolling as soon as they what the [ __ ] turn the cameras off she would not even acknowledge the audience she would just sit on the couch basically which was supported by heta muscats one of the Show's former producers toxic phony hypocrite liar that's what she oh [ __ ] one of the show's former producers toxic phony hypocrite liar that's what she is she agre that things were different when the cameras weren't rolling we were told
from the very beginning don't talk to Ellen don't do this you can't you know go into her office it was very nerve-wracking very stressful we all walked on eggshells all the time and after the shows DJ also what the wait so okay I'm going to be honest at the beginning I was like oh yeah there's a Twitter comment that said she was mean to you oh wow she's so terrible let's cancel her but like these are actual people that worked with her it's not true there I've been in the audience twice and she's always talked
to the audience the same BuzzFeed la their own investigation interviewing a further 11 former employees they were fired after taking medical leave or bement days to attend family funerals one employee who claimed she was fed up with comments about her race essentially walked off the job wait what others said they were also instructed by their direct managers to not speak to degenerous if they saw her around the office after the accusations went viral oh my God a random twitch chatter went on Ellen sure bro must have went with your wife yeah that's how we know
he's lying right issued a statement within the company hey everybody it's Ellen on day one of our show I told everyone in our first meeting that the Ellen degenerous show would be a place of Happiness no one would ever raise their voice and everyone would be treated with respect obviously something changed and I'm disappointed to learn that this has not been the case and for that I'm sorry sorry anyone who knows me knows it's the opposite of what I believed and what I hoped for our show yet Ellen's former producer certainly didn't buy it so
when Ellen says she's not aware of this uh environment you don't think that Rings true it's a lie Ellen then took a TW Monon break and began a brand new season you never take a break that's what she see this is the thing she should have learned from YouTubers you never take a [ __ ] break because then people stop thinking about you like it's it it doesn't matter any drama like oh wow it was discovered that you killed somebody oh yeah okay well I'm going live later on today so I'll deal with that later
doesn't matter never stop making content by addressing the public as you may have heard this summer there were allegations toxic work environment at our show I learned that things happened here that never should have happened I take that she kind of it too and that's also kind of different like I mean she's not saying it's [ __ ] or whatever she's saying it happened it took a two week break yeah I that wasn't my decision though was it seriously and I want to say I am so sorry to the people who were affected we have
made the necessary changes and today we are starting a new chapter she'd then make the promise and I committed to making this the best season that we have ever had although the ratings set the opposite ooh not so wow look at that red dot that's a really bad o bad oh real bad not good at all because only 6 months later published Ellen degenerous loses 1 million viewers after apologies for toxic workplace it explained that see you never apologize unless you're sorry never [ __ ] apologize I have said some of the most batshit crazy
stuff and do you want to know why I never apologize for it you did though yeah cuz I thought I was wrong right oh no no i' I've apologized for things in the past if I think that I'm wrong but if I don't think that I'm wrong you're never getting a [ __ ] apology never apologize never yep that's right chat's not listening no they just as I said there's nothing that's more compelling to a [ __ ] on the internet than to misunderstand two things and pretend that they're the same that is like porn
to people on the internet speak up never apologize the uville video of Mr Beast yeah redditors never listen because they want to be they dumb people want nothing more than to be smart been averaging 1.5 million viewers over the last 6 months down from 2.6 million in the same period last year the show's loss of more than a million viewer this only had a million viewers you is it only is this live viewers or this is this like total views cuz like that's like one YouTube video million in the same period last year the show's
loss of more than a million viewers translates to a 43% deine representing a St drop than any of its competitors as a result Ellen made the announcement I am announcing that next season season 19 is going to be my last season 19 season holy [ __ ] The Hollywood Reporter as great as this show is and as fun as it is it's just not a challenge anymore I need something new to challenge me with her being exposed also clearly having an impact she'd State the expose destroyed me honestly I'd be lying if I said it
did it and it makes me really sad that there's so much joy out there from negativity oh what a bunch of horeshit you're just sitting there you mad cuz you're getting called out you just getting mad cuz you called out what is it why is she got yeah what is this it's too easy yeah what are you talking about po now where there are just mean people and it's so foreign to me that people get joy out of that that's why people [ __ ] hate somebody like this is because like you talking about mean
people you the biggest [ __ ] there is if this stuff is true you a massive [ __ ] like you going to talk about oh wow it's so bad that like people want to say that I'm mean mean well what about the fact that you are mean it's like the people criticizing her for being a [ __ ] are worse than her when she's being a [ __ ] what are we talking about it's just I had no idea yes she was getting joy out of being mean oh that's a good point these mean
people responded stating even without the controversy the show hasn't been fun and genuine for years it may have never been but at least it seemed like it but Ellen is tired of it all and she's lousy at hiding it now no more dancing by her no monologue half the time bad jokes that are dragged out way y know this [ __ ] happens with streamers too like you ever have a streamer that like you know they just decide that like from now on they're just going to phone it in they just stop putting in effort
they sto putting in work they're just over it yeah exactly being lazy you oh Quinn Quinn Summit d P soda po ninja Hollow live dizzy Grayson xqc squeaks Aiden nick uh oh man like there's all man bro like that's bad everybody getting lazy huh oh that's [ __ ] up tons of old show clips tons of self-promotion and a guest host every Friday these elements led to an average final season which Ellen concluded by crying with her audience she then mentioned the possibility of returning to acting but instead made a documentary titled saving the gorillas
Ellen's next adventure it released in 2023 but with only 100 reviews on IMDb and this likely being the first time you've heard of it it's safe to say it performed pretty poorly I've never heard of that I I didn't even know this happened rather went back to living a quiet life until April 2020 4 when she'd make a new announcement you may have heard that I'm doing standup again if you want to come see me I'll be sharing some news tomorrow at noon as suggested she'd announce a standup tour to be recorded and posted by
Netflix also adding yes I'm going to talk about it referring to her being cancelled so [ __ ] dumb so cringe bro like do you know what I did after I got banned I just immediately kept doing what I was doing before I was banned but maybe a bit better hopefully a bit better that's it yeah it's easy you just come back do the same thing clean your room I did for your approval the special begins with Ellen walking up a flight of stairs each referencing a headline that ruined her reputation she acknowledges the tweet
that started her downfall as well as the employees who spoke out against her then Begins the actual show with a joke about her fall from grace you know I used to say that I didn't care what other people thought of me and I realize now looking back I said that at the height of my popularity yeah I'm here because I love doing standup I miss doing standup and I like making people happy and I do care what people think now I really look and I know George Carlin did this and he's the goat and Dave
Chappelle does this and he's the current goat but I really hate when comedians go up there and just talk I do I find it so [ __ ] annoying the P yeah it's like you know who was really bad on that that like would really annoy the [ __ ] out of me about that uh who's a fat ball Guy The Fat Ball guy who's the Fat Ball everybody knows what I'm talking about yeah Lou CK there it is right yeah this is a pretty respectable angle as it feels extremely honest yet it also seems
like a snaky request for pity which as a high-profile celebrity you'll simply never get she then talks about what she's been up to all right well let me catch up on what's been going on with me since you saw me last [Music] oh yeah I got kicked out of show business then make some pretty funny jokes about her new reputation everybody heard that I was mean everywhere I go I know everyone's heard that I'm mean I know when I walk into a restaurant people are watching waiting to see if I'll be mean oh look she
oh oh she's reaching for butter it's kind of clever okay she was going to hit somebody it's kind of funny on the contrary there are some pretty outof touch segments for example her joking about her car features which you'd clearly only find in a luxury vehicle then there's that one that that button that inflates the back of the seat you know the one that makes you feel like you're getting spooned by a pregnant woman who the [ __ ] would want that I don't want that y'all have that in your car I didn't even know
this but my car has heated seats like I I didn't know like you could connect your phone to your car did you all know that that's crazy wow you can drive I've been driving ever since I was 17 yeah that's another think that's yeah like I cuz I went from a two 2001 Mustang to a 2024 Mercedes it's like it's like you put a caveman in a house well half of the half of the buttons on that [ __ ] car I I don't touch that [ __ ] she also makes this out of touch
joke we're all interested in different things we're all good at different things I was talking to someone the other day and they said I don't know how you get on stage in front of people I could never do that and I said well I don't know how you dry clean clothes but I I guess that's okay like I mean I think that almost all almost all comedy if Trump had said that everybody would love it I'm going to be honest almost all like I feel like most issues with comedy isn't the joke it's the messenger
that's it satire videos don't yeah it's just dumb it's the delivery the Charisma of it yeah now chat's agreeing I think so also how you say it it is tone daa has to be relatable I guess I don't even think it needs to be relatable I think that there's plenty of people that are totally unrelatable but they're [ __ ] hilarious that's not the problem at all as an overall the special isn't terrible it's audience rating of 5.4 Stars five is not good like if I got a 54 on a test my dad would be
mad he'd be pissed he said what are you doing yeah that's an IGN 7 yeah true feels fairly accurate although as you might expect simply because it's Ellen the Articles written about it have been brutal Ellen degenerous unfunny Netflix special leaves so much UNS said ellenda generous lets herself off the hook in self-indulgent Netflix so like I hate people that do that it's so weird bro like yeah Ellen degenerous is Unapologetic unrelatable and totally insufferable in her new special they'd write the problem with for your approval aside from the fact that it's almost never funny
is that it feels so disingenuous so calculated to rehabilitate an image and preserve that Triumph for Prosperity another ABS [ __ ] lutely by the way like I hate when people try to do that it's so obvious why can't you just finish the video instead of constantly pausing it's only like 10 minutes long um because I don't like you and I want to make your life worse I like the idea that you're unhappy and that makes me happy so thank you anyway um it's totally [ __ ] fake the entire way that she's acting and
everything about her is completely [ __ ] fake it's calculated to re and it's it's the problem is that it's fake in a way that's not entertaining that's the big issue other article stated it's one of the weirdest standup shows in recent memory half observational punchlines half closing argument in a trial featuring degenerous as her own defense attorney neither half works on its own taken as a whole it's an exhausting mess Jesus bro like it's just so [ __ ] cringe like if you want people to like you you know what the best apology is
is better content you think people are [ __ ] don't like oh we don't like you anymore well just then just do better it's like everybody is like oh I don't know why my stream isn't doing well nobody's watching my videos oh no well maybe because they suck maybe because you're [ __ ] boring maybe because you you're [ __ ] your topics are boring the game play sucks and nobody cares so how about how about oh what stop looking stop trying to external ize the problem look at yourself you suck you they don't suck
maybe they suck too but you also suck you look at yourself never found her funny I mean now it's like yeah it's just how it is that also adds self-awareness is different from taking responsibility degenerous offers no apologies or even explanations for her behavior yet in other more favorable reviews Unapologetic was used as a positive I like the fact that she's rather Unapologetic it's highly refreshing and honest this extreme divide can be seen by the audience reviews on Google there's almost an equal amount of one and five star ratings a sad representation of the black
and white thinking that plagues the internet so heavily today yeah people are just dumb as [ __ ] man like that's always what they do that they they just want to think about it in One Direction and that's it because they don't want to to use their [ __ ] brain she been full of herself ever since she came out with her sitcom I'm up for listening com yeah it's just so [ __ ] annoying man she couldn't even pay people uh 50 people with five stars the fact that Ellen's blaming the US for electing
Trump moving to the UK she's moving to the UK because of trump damn bro that sucks for the UK man they've already got an immigrant problem she just trying to make it worse damn that sucks bro like that they're getting recolonized not the didy list you think that's the reason why she moved because of the Diddy list her and Tom Hanks I don't know about that man yeah we don't want her what you know what I always find to be funny is that all these people that like to complain about like this racism and stuff
like this they always like to move to the other countries that are you know the same countries that are criticizing the people that are from the countries that they think it's racist why why don't you ever go to those places that you keep defending I wonder why wh why is that ooh James Cordon people didn't like James Cordon because he's fat that's reason who are your three favorite comedians right now I would say like I'm not deep in it right like I'm not I'm not deep in it in any capacity like at all like yeah
I really can't say so I I don't know Bill ber Bill definitely be up there um I I would say probably Dave Chappelle probably I say Dave Chappelle be my number one if I had to say it' probably be yeah Dave Chappelle be my number one uh Shane gills I see I I haven't really watched a lot of his [ __ ] honestly I I've like seen a few things but that was it but uh yeah that's Gabriel and glacius is the perfect example of a comedian that can just talk and be funny oh yeah
I remember me and my dad were talking about that like we were like he's so good I love him and uh we were talking about like how he's just sitting there talking telling a story but it's compelling and the way he speaks is just entertaining and people just stick around with it fluffy and make yeah yeah right I I I love I think he's so so good and the reason why is he's so genuine and likable right and I think that's why Ellen degenerous didn't work it's that basically when you have the um uh when
you have the image of being like this super nice wholesome person that is like such an easy image to crack like there is so so many ways that can go absolutely [ __ ] wrong and I think with her that's exactly what happened yeah she not likable yeah exactly she just not likable that's what it is mar white Ellen disingenuous yeah true one bad day was on local comedy club before it got popular was an amazing show yeah yeah sure we've seen this with Mr Beast people do not like extremely kind people well the reason
why they don't like really nice people is because nine times out of 10 it's fake and so you have people that aren't nice that get really annoyed by it because they're like oh my God this is making me feel like a loser and so it's like somebody has to figure out like this is why everybody tries to like justify why like oh well they're giving the charity yeah for a tax right off like oh they're doing this yeah yeah for this for attention the reason why they're doing that is because these are people that are
professional loser dick suckers that been their whole life complaining about [ __ ] on the internet and constructing a perfect reality that has left them the only thing that they could possibly do is live at their mom's house not have a job order McDonald's on door Dash every day and jack off to animals that aren't real that's the only thing that Society has allowed them to do and they've constructed a world where that's all they can do that's it moderate yeah and and be a a Discord moderator how do I know because that's just the
way it is and so this is the reason why people like to [ __ ] on celebrities now Ellen degenerate is [ __ ] [ __ ] shitty standup who cares but there's plenty of people out there that are not that shitty and they still get [ __ ] on it's because people hate being reminded that they ain't doing [ __ ] with their life they ain't doing a [ __ ] thing I think Keanu Reeves has done quite well though you want to know why Keanu Reeves does really well is because he's not faking
it he's just a nice guy he's just a nice he's an average nice guy he's humble you know normal great actor uh and it's John Wick that's another really big component to Kean Reeves he's always making movies so you always and he's good in the movies people like him that's the reason you keep cooking and people going to like you talk L people won't know yeah exactly I came to a couple's weddy in the UK uh because they met him in a pub and they ask them yeah it it's I think that people like the
idea of celebrities and people in like big positions like that that just act normal because uh I I think that people don't like the uh the Ivory Tower [ __ ] that's what it is
