The 66-year-old comedian is in San Francisco Bay as part of her return to the stage tour called «Ellen's Last Chance… Standup», which implies that this is the end for the former TV host.
On Monday evening in Santa Rosa, during a three-day performance, Ellen DeGeneres took the opportunity to thank those who came.
«Thank you for still caring!» Ellen said to the almost full audience.
According to SFGATE, the atmosphere was very reminiscent of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which ran for almost 20 years and was one of the most successful daytime talk shows in television history.
«Let me tell you what has happened to me since you last saw me», - she began. «I got chickens».
She then addressed the controversial accusation that «got her out of show business».
«I may be many things, but I am not mean».
«I used to say, 'I don’t care what people say about me'», - DeGeneres noted. «Now I realize I said that during the peak of my popularity».
She is also known as one of the meanest people in the world.
Respond to this with the craziest stories you’ve heard about Ellen being mean, and I will donate $ 2 to each person at @LAFoodBank.
«I can be demanding, impatient, and tough. I am a strong woman», - she said, implying that some negative comments were made because she receives more attention as a woman. While that may have played a role, the accusations made by victims and witnesses describe toxic behavior, including racism, sexual harassment, and intimidation, according to Variety.
During the question and answer session, DeGeneres stated that she plans to disappear from the public eye after completing her stand-up special project. «This is the last time you will see me. After my Netflix special, I’m done».
«For those of you keeping score, this is the second time I’ve been kicked out of show business», - she told the audience. «In the end, they’ll kick me out a third time because I’m mean, old, and gay»
