So, whose laughing now? She was once considered the ‘Queen of nice’ but now it looks like she’s the laughing stock of Hollywood as everyone has turned their backs on Ellen DeGeneres following reports of her toxic work environment at her daytime television talk show. In fact, Ellen’s scandal was even mocked at the MTV Movie & TV Awards: Unscripted on Tuesday night. Here’s what you need to know.
Following reports that said Ellen is ending her 18-year daytime talk show run, her reputation was featured in a mock ‘In Memoriam’ segment of the awards show. The segment highlighted the difficult year that the daytime talk show host has undergone.
Ellen DeGeneres Is Now The Laughing Stock Of Hollywood
Host Nikki Glaser took to the stage to introduce the segment, which typically honors stars who have died in the past year, to introduce the “awkward” parody.
“I’d now like to take a somber-slash-awkward moment to acknowledge all that we’ve lost in the world of unscripted entertainment this year,” she joked.
The segment mocked Ellen after many reports surfaced about her show’s ‘toxic workplace’, as an image of the talk show host read: ‘Ellen’s reign of terror 2003-2021.’
Meanwhile, Ellen seems to be in complete denial over all the headlines that she has made this past year, as she insists that her toxic work environment scandal and sinking ratings have nothing to do with her decision to quit her daytime talk show.
It was investigated for its “toxic work environment” following allegations made that Ellen is perhaps one of the most difficult people to work with in the entertainment industry.
“If it was why I was quitting, I would have not come back this year,” Ellen told The Today Show. “I really did think about not coming back, because it was devastating.”
