    I went to her show once, and it was horrible. My brother, who passed away a few years ago, had a few heath issues, and they sat us all the way in the back and to the side so we wouldn't show. He fought bullying all his life, and they made him feel the worst they had ever felt. Before the show, they made 2 lines, and since I had gone to the restroom a few minutes before, we got in the wrong line. Her staff told everyone in that line that they were chosen because they were the cool kinds with good energy. When they saw us they rolled their eyes and told us to go back with everyone else in the other group 😢. One of my biggest regrets after my brother's passing was that I took him there. She is a monster!!

She went mad at him and kept going on about it. At first I thought she was kidding around until I realized she wasn't. The male staff member just remained silent and one could see he was accustomed to this treatment.

Since my coworker brokered this marketing promotion and got to be the ambassador, she was all excited, anticipating that she would get to meet Ellen.

    The first time I believed her. I was proud of her landing that show and felt she deserved it. I had a family member whose brother worked on the set. He actually left because of the negativity. I can’t imagine anyone walking away from such a good job. He just couldn’t handle it. To hear her complaining she was shunned yet again after all these stories is an eye roll. Its annoying to hear her play the victim again.

      Oh trust me, there's so much worse. What has come out is just the tip of the iceberg. When the truth about people like Spielberg comes out, that's when the real skeletons will come tumbling out.

    Ellen got kicked out of show business in 1998 for coming out as gay and then welcomed back. Then she got kicked out again for being hostile and mean to her talk show staff. It’s a downward spiral.
