The host says goodbye to the audience after over 40 years.


Few people have had as much of an impact on American television as Ellen DeGeneres, aside from Oprah Winfrey. Nonetheless, the comedian and broadcaster has declared her retirement following more than 40 years in the entertainment industry. This information was obtained from DeGeneres’ press conference in Santa Clara, California, when she spoke with reporters and admirers.

DeGeneres firmly said, “No,” when asked if she intended to return following her tour for her program “Ellen’s Last Stand…Up.” This is my final appearance to you. I’m done with Netflix specials, thank you.

” She said, “I’m leaving, goodbye,” without giving any more information. Fans begged DeGeneres to stay, but she was adamant about her choice.

She left the show during a turbulent period during which there were allegations of a poisonous work atmosphere on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show.”

A complaint that stated DeGeneres instilled terror in her employees surfaced in 2020, and subsequent allegations bearing identical details proliferated. The show’s viewership significantly declined as a result of this scandal, which ultimately led to its cancelation.

Even though Ellen DeGeneres is stepping away from the spotlight, her influence on American television cannot be denied, even though scandal has clouded her legacy.
