Ellen DeGeneres surfaces with wife Portia de Rossi in Montecito... after announcing she is 'done' with showbiz once her Netflix special drops


The 66-year-old comedian is in the midst of her farewell tour Ellen's Last Stand... Up, the final shows of which will be filmed for Netflix. Once the special drops, she is 'done' with showbiz.

Four months later, BuzzFeed News published an exposé featuring one current and 10 former employees of the Louisiana-born funnywoman's former self-titled daytime talk show alleging racism, workplace bullying, and sexual harassment. By August 2020, WarnerMedia had launched an internal investigation, Ellen had issued a formal apology to her 255 employees, and executive producers Ed Glavin, Kevin Leman, and Jonathan Norman were all fired from the show. The comedian's cancellations came hours after SF Gate homepage editor Gabe Lehman published his detailed review of her show at the Luther Burbank Center for the Arts in Santa Rosa, CA.
