Ellen DeGeneres EMOTIONAL During Stand-Up Special

Ellen DeGeneres gets emotional during her comedy special, 'For Your Approval,' streaming now on Netflix. During the special, which was filmed as part of her 'Ellen’s Last Stand' stand-up tour, the comedian addresses her talk show controversy in 2020, when allegations were made that she’s ‘mean’ and fosters a 'toxic work environment.' At the end of the show, the audience cheers Ellen on as she defends herself and the comedian is visibly moved.

Clearly, Ellen has completely forgotten that her motto for her show was “Be Kind”. Her downfall happened because she was everything BUT kind.

Demanding your staff not make eye contact with you is not strong.

[Nogoingback]

When no one likes you or comes to your defense it’s probably you.

[TylerPlaceWolfPack]

Patting herself on the back trying to paint herself high and mighty because she's guilty of going to Diddys Freak Offs

[castlemagick]

Can’t believe she still think she’s the victim and backtracked her apology. Now she’s making jokes about it. She can never take responsibility. Anyone that still defends her is delusional. SMH

[Lonnies]

The way she treated people and her guest was not okay

[susandenninger]

Nice to know you can get away with being a tyrant

[shelleyjacobson]

Bye, Bye, Take Oprah and Markle with you.

[driskey]

What’s up with that lady with the oversized suit 😂

[PureSparkles]

Why isn’t Jennifer aniston defending her?

[Theboy]

She's trying so hard to stay relevant. stop trying.

[katoness]

Me, me, me, its all about me!! An absolutely ridiculous person.

[SharonMcwilliams]

These pieces of media will come back to haunt them all. Like poetic justice.

Yes when you're whole career is based off of you being nice, of course people will be upset when they find out that you're not nice.

[IronCore]

She disguised this show for comedy when its really a therapy session for her 😂

[indubioprosecco]

If a man is mean, people think this is some kind of strongness or power.

[CodySvsTheNet]

I noticed you said Emotional and not Funny

[maitaimik]

Trying to stay relevant, and failing !

[karlc]

Hey Ellen, you owe Mariah Carey and Taylor Swift some apologies.

[NubeMs]

A wonderful person and artist! I miss her shows very much. ❤
