      91clarie I felt pretty pissed off, that was not Ellens call to make!
      If I was Mariah Carey, I would have been honest and more direct to Ellen and tell her why I didn’t want to talk about my pregnancy because of the fear of miscarriage, and educate her why women that are pregnant keep it a secret until it’s official.
      Since Mariah had the miscarriage it would have been really cool if she went back on the show and show Ellen proof as to why it was wrong of her to have done so.

      @@encycl07pedia- obviously, but I’ve never believed public shaming is ever productive. Think about the huge feeling of humiliation that she felt, I agree that she shouldn’t have taken anything extra, but to shame her in front of an entire audience, and put it on tv doesn’t really fit the crime. I’m sure she wasn’t the only one to take more than one item, and I’m pretty sure the only place the honor system actually works, is in Japan. They have plenty of unstaffed stores that the owner trusts that the customers will pay without supervision. That’d be awesome if more places were like that, but even kids can’t even follow the “please take one” rule on Halloween

    @JonahTV Před 4 lety +236

    As someone who has worked on film sets before, I think I can offer some insight into number 3. While the rumors surrounding her treatment of her staff may be extreme - and I would say bad - what I CAN say is that the general rule of working on a set is that, unless you’re one of the keys (which are jobs like producer, director, director of photography, key grip, etc.) you should NEVER engage with the talent PERIOD, unless they engage with you first. It’s a rule that’s taken so seriously that I know some sets where you’ll be fired immediately if you do this. While this may seem extreme, there’s a reason for this. Even on reality shows and talk shows, the talent are ACTORS, and most of them have to get into the right mindset in order to perform to the best of their abilities. Engaging the talent in casual conversation can seriously disrupt their process and may even end up ruining or delaying a shoot. While not letting people look you in the eye is extreme, the “no talking” rule is actually industry standard and not an Ellen-specific - or even uncommon - rule.

      But Ellen is not acting lol she literally goes on stage and has everything pre-planned for her. Index cards, and a prompter she reads of off. And even then she does not bother to do her homework properly, like remembering Katy Perry WAS married and she gave her a gift on the show. Or mis pronouncing Hasan Minhaj’s name and telling him “nooo” when he corrects her. Excuse me, who are you to tell a man the way to pronounce HIS name Ellen? Embarrassing. She treats people badly because she quite simply feels VERY entitled. This even happens off set, so you can’t defend her in saying its part of her “process”. Ellen literally sent a letter to a waitresses manager because the waitress had chipped nail polish. Like huhhhh? How up your own ass do you have to be to try & get someone fired over nail polish?

I think she might think she can just pull out the "I'm gay and by not supporting me, you're being homophobic" card and get away with everything she does, which is playing the victim and just giving gay people a bad rep.

Most hosts have to do research (or have others do it for them but either way they still need to know) stuff about them (eg.

    Honestly the only one I'm not angry at is the George W Bush one. Only in the sense of there was no reason to cause a scene and being unpleasant in public in a social setting with assigned seating.

    Family Guy put it best I think: It’s all about her. She’s not as selfless as she thinks she is. Still like her, but noticed that a lot of the things she gives to people have her name literally all over it…

    Growing up my family would constantly watch Ellen, and even when I was younger I got the vibe she was an incredibly fake slimy person. Everything about her show came off as trying way too hard to be all "nice" and "perfect". Could never stand watching it.

    "1 She allegedly treats her staff like Peasants"
    "3 People can't talk to her on set... Allegedly "
    I thought this was a list of things she's done, not things she may or may not have done. Also, she forgot someone was married, didn't go to a birthday party, called out someone for doing something wrong, had her own opinions on political matters and didn't want to work with a certain person? How dare she? 🙄

      Katy Perry's divorce from Russell Brand was VERY public, though. Ellen had also made it a point to give her wedding gifts on her show in front of an audience.
      About the bday party: She straight up lied that she didn't get invited to the party and got all upset, claiming the guest didn't like her and tried making the poor girl look bad in front of the audience, when she did in fact get an invitation. She then blew it off with "I had the thing", and tried moving on to save face.

      @arahelombi8241 Před 4 lety +1

      Trey Cantrell they didn’t mention it in this video, but Ellen has numerous times cancelled interviews with guests with differing opinions. Most notably Kaitlyn Jenner. It just comes off as hypocritical that she’s okay hanging with bush when she’s not okay with so many others because they have the wrong opinion 🤷🏽‍♀️

    I just noticed in the last one. The only time there was nothing on the other site of the boxes was when Ellen walked with that guy. Other times there was something, so the scared person could fall on it.
