Ellen DeGeneres Talks About Being “Kicked Out of Show Business” During New Comedy Tour
Ellen DeGeneres has plans to just keep swimming away from Hollywood.
The former daytime talk show host got candid about life since ending The Ellen DeGeneres Show during her standup set in Santa Rosa, Calif., on July 1.
When one fan asked if they could look forward to seeing her on Broadway or the big screen in the near future, Ellen was quick to set the record straight.
“Um, no,” she said, according to SFGATE. “This is the last time you’re going to see me. After my Netflix special, I’m done.”
But the comedian is grateful for the time she’s spending on the stage in the meantime.
“Thank you for still caring!” Ellen said. “Let me catch you up on what’s been going on with me since you last saw me. I got chickens.”
She added, “Oh yeah, and I got kicked out of show business for being mean.”
Making a guess that next she’ll be “kicked out for being old,” Ellen joked, “Old, gay and mean—the triple crown.”
