syndicated television talk show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show from 2003 to 2022, for which she received 33 Daytime Emmy Awards
.

Her stand-up career started in the early 1980s and included a 1986 appearance on

.

She starred in two television sitcoms, Ellen from 1994 to 1998 and The Ellen Show from 2001 to 2002. During the fourth season of Ellen in 1997, she came out as a lesbian in an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Her character, Ellen Morgan, also came out to a therapist played by Winfrey, and the series went on to explore various LGBT issues, including the coming-out process. In 2008, she married her longtime girlfriend Portia de Rossi.

DeGeneres has hosted the

Carol Burnett Award at the Golden Globes for her work on television, becoming the first recipient after its inaugural namesake Carol Burnett.[6]

Early life and education

DeGeneres was born and raised in

insurance agent.[7][8] She has one brother, Vance, a musician and producer. She was raised a Christian Scientist.[9] Her parents filed for separation in 1973 and were divorced the following year.[9] Shortly after, her mother married Roy Gruessendorf, a salesman. Betty Jane and Ellen moved with Gruessendorf from the New Orleans area to Atlanta, Texas. Vance stayed with his father.[citation needed
]

When she was 15 or 16 years old, DeGeneres was molested by her stepfather.[10][11] Gruessendorf used her mother's recent breast cancer diagnosis as an excuse to touch her inappropriately, saying he needed to examine her breasts for lumps. Eventually, he tried to break down her door and sexually assault her, prompting her to run away from home and spend the night in a hospital.[12] DeGeneres told her mother about the abuse a few years later, but Betty Jane did not believe her, and remained married to Gruessendorf for 18 years afterward. She finally realized that DeGeneres had been telling the truth when his accounts of his behavior toward his stepdaughter kept changing.[13] Gruessendorf died in 1997.[citation needed]

DeGeneres graduated from

house painter, a hostess and a bartender. She relates much of her childhood and career experiences in her comedic work.[citation needed
]

Stand-up comedy

DeGeneres started performing stand-up comedy at small clubs and coffee houses. By 1981, she was the

Showtime's funniest person in America.[16]

After a 15-year hiatus from performing stand-up comedy, DeGeneres appeared in a 2018 Netflix stand-up special, Relatable.[17][18]

DeGeneres lists Lucille Ball, Carol Burnett and Bob Newhart among her comedic influences.[19]

Film career

Ellen's work in the late 1980s and early 1990s included the film

Ellen's Energy Adventure, which was part of the Universe of Energy attraction and pavilion at Walt Disney World's Epcot. The film also featured Bill Nye, Alex Trebek, Michael Richards, and Jamie Lee Curtis. The show revolved around DeGeneres's falling asleep and finding herself in an energy-themed version of Jeopardy!, playing against an old rival, portrayed by Curtis, and Albert Einstein
. The next film had DeGeneres co-hosting an educational look at energy with Nye. The ride first opened on September 15, 1996, as Ellen's Energy Crisis, but was quickly given the more positive-sounding name Ellen's Energy Adventure. The ride closed permanently on August 13, 2017.

Television career

1989–2002

DeGeneres's first regular TV role was in a short-lived Fox sitcom called

Carol Black cast DeGeneres in their sitcom Laurie Hill, in the role of Nurse Nancy MacIntyre.[23] The series was canceled after only four episodes, but Marlens and Black soon cast her in their next ABC pilot, These Friends of Mine, which they co-created with David S. Rosenthal.[24][25]

Inspired by her comedy career, These Friends of Mine was renamed Ellen after the first season.[26] The ABC show was popular in its first few seasons due in part to DeGeneres's style of observational humor; it was often referred to as a "female Seinfeld".[27]

Ellen reached its height of popularity in April 1997, when DeGeneres came out as a lesbian on

ratings and was cancelled.[29][30]

DeGeneres returned to television in 2001 with a new CBS sitcom, The Ellen Show, which was cancelled after 13 episodes. In 2007, a former writer said she treated the writers "like shit" saying "Why do you keep writing these unfunny jokes?"[31][32] After her sitcoms, DeGeneres would later re-establish herself as a successful talk show host.

2003–2017

DeGeneres launched a daytime television talk show,

Daytime Emmy Awards in its first season,[35] winning four, including Best Talk Show.[36] The show won 25 Emmy Awards for its first three seasons on the air.[37] For much of the duration of the show, DeGeneres was known for dancing with the audience at the beginning of the show and during commercial breaks. She often gave away free prizes and trips to be in her show's studio audience with the help of her sponsors. DeGeneres later stated that she stopped dancing as it became an expectation and too much of a burden.[38]

DeGeneres celebrated her thirty-year class reunion by flying her graduating class to California to be guests on her show in February 2006. She presented Atlanta High School with a surprise gift of a new electronic LED marquee sign. DeGeneres made a surprise appearance at Tulane University's May 2006 commencement in New Orleans. Following George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton to the podium, she appeared in a bathrobe and furry slippers. "They told me everyone would be wearing robes," she said. Ellen made another commencement speech at Tulane in 2009.[39]

The show broadcast for a week from Universal Studios Orlando in March 2007. Skits included DeGeneres going on the Hulk Roller Coaster Ride[40] and the Jaws Boat Ride.[41] DeGeneres was placed on bed rest in May 2007 due to a torn ligament in her back. She continued hosting her show from a hospital bed, tended to by a nurse, explaining "the show must go on, as they say." Guests sat in hospital beds as well.[42] On May 1, 2009, DeGeneres celebrated her 1000th episode with celebrity guests such as Oprah Winfrey, Justin Timberlake and Paris Hilton, among others.[43] Jennifer Aniston and Justin Timberlake surprised DeGeneres on her 2,000th show in December 2015.[44]

DeGeneres replaced

ninth season of American Idol. Her role started after the contestant auditions, at the beginning of "Hollywood Week".[45][46] It is reported that DeGeneres also signed a contract to be a judge on the show for at least five seasons.[47] She made her American Idol debut on February 9, 2010. However, on July 29, 2010, DeGeneres and Fox executives announced that the comedian would be leaving American Idol after one season. In a statement, DeGeneres said that the series "didn't feel like the right fit for me".[48]

DeGeneres began hosting the NBC game show Ellen's Game of Games during the 2017–2018 television season. Based on games played on her talk show, the series previewed on December 18, 2017, with regular episodes starting the following January.[49] It would run for four total seasons until May 2021, with its cancellation announced in January 2022.[50]

Since 2018

The New York Times profiled DeGeneres in 2018 as she faced the decision of renewing her talk-show contract and was exploring other outlets for her creativity, including her Netflix comedy special Relatable, which spoofs her kind image.[38] They noted she felt boxed in with a reputation of always being nice, and the host who danced all the time.[38] DeGeneres—who acknowledges that she has always been overly sensitive—fretted how her audience would react when she no longer wanted to dance.[38] Her Christian Scientist upbringing included her father's psyche, "He was a very fearful man, he couldn't hear or engage with anything unpleasant."[38]

On May 12, 2021, DeGeneres announced that she would end her talk show following the conclusion of its nineteenth season in 2022.[51] The show aired its final episode on May 26, 2022, with Jennifer Aniston, Pink and Billie Eilish appearing as guests, while Portia de Rossi and other members of DeGeneres' family sat in the audience.[52]

Award shows

DeGeneres received wider exposure on November 4, 2001, when she hosted the televised broadcast of the

Emmy Awards. Presented after two cancellations due to network concerns that a lavish ceremony following the September 11 attacks would appear insensitive, the show required a more somber tone that would also allow viewers to temporarily forget the tragedy. DeGeneres received several standing ovations for her performance that evening, which included the line: "What would bug the Taliban more than seeing a gay woman in a suit surrounded by Jews?"[53]

In August 2005, DeGeneres hosted the

Grammy Awards
in 1996 and in 1997.

On September 7, 2006, DeGeneres was selected to host the 79th Academy Awards ceremony, which took place on February 25, 2007.[54] This makes her the first openly gay person to have hosted the event.[55] During the Awards show, DeGeneres said, "What a wonderful night, such diversity in the room, in a year when there's been so many negative things said about people's race, religion, and sexual orientation. And I want to put this out there: If there weren't blacks, Jews and gays, there would be no Oscars, or anyone named Oscar, when you think about that."[56] Reviews of her hosting gig were positive, with one saying, "DeGeneres rocked, as she never forgot that she wasn't just there to entertain the Oscar nominees but also to tickle the audience at home."[57] Regis Philbin said in an interview that "the only complaint was there's not enough Ellen."

DeGeneres was nominated for an Emmy Award as host of the Academy Awards broadcast.[58] On August 2, 2013, it was announced that DeGeneres would host the Academy Awards on March 2, 2014, for the second time.[59]

A selfie orchestrated by 86th Academy Awards host Ellen DeGeneres during the broadcast is the fifth-most retweeted tweet ever.[60][61][62] DeGeneres said she wanted to homage Meryl Streep's record 17 Oscar nominations by setting a new record with her, and invited other Oscar celebrities to join them. The resulting photo of twelve celebrities broke the previous retweet record within forty minutes and was retweeted over 1.8 million times in the first hour.[63][64][65] By the end of the ceremony it had been retweeted over 2 million times, less than 24 hours later, it had been retweeted over 2.8 million times.[61][63] As of May 2017, it has been retweeted over 3.4 million times.[61] The group selfie effort was parodied by Lego and Matt Groening with The Simpsons.[66][67] It beat the previous record, which was held by Barack Obama, following his victory in the 2012 presidential election.[65][68][69]

Other ventures

ED Ellen DeGeneres

DeGeneres launched her lifestyle brand under the name ED by Ellen in the summer of 2015.[70] After her initial collections, the brand name then changed to ED Ellen DeGeneres to incorporate the licensed arm of her brand.[71] The collection includes apparel, shoes, accessories, pet, baby and home items. DeGeneres's dog collection at PetSmart was launched in February 2017,[72] and a cat line was introduced later that year.[73]

In November 2017, the brand launched a collection to benefit DeGeneres' #BeKindToElephants campaign featuring a tee and baby one piece, donating 100% of the proceeds to the

Digit Fund, to launch a line of tees and footwear to help gorillas.[76]

The beauty campaign was DeGeneres's first.[80]

On December 3, 2011, DeGeneres headlined the third annual "Change Begins Within" gala for the David Lynch Foundation held at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.[81][82]

On May 26, 2010, DeGeneres announced on her show that she was starting her own record label entitled "eleveneleven". She explained her choice of name, claiming that she often sees the number 11:11 when looking at her clocks, that she found singer Greyson Chance on the 11th, and that the singer's soccer jersey has the number 11.[87] She mentioned that she had been looking for videos of performances on YouTube to start her label. The first act she signed to the label was Chance.[88]

Sexual orientation and relationships

In 1997, DeGeneres

The Advocate after their separation had already been announced to the media.[100]

Since 2004, DeGeneres has had a relationship with

Proposition 8 cast doubt on the legal status of their marriage, but a subsequent California Supreme Court judgment validated it because it occurred before November 4, 2008.[104][105][106] On August 6, 2010, de Rossi filed a petition to legally change her name to Portia Lee James DeGeneres.[107] The petition was granted on September 23, 2010.[108]

Animal rights and veganism

DeGeneres previously described herself as a vegan and "big animal lover".[109][110] De Rossi is also a vegan.[110] DeGeneres co-ordinated a vegan outreach website titled "Going Vegan with Ellen".[111] She intended to open a vegan tapas bar, Bokado, in Los Angeles, but plans fell through.[112] The website for The Ellen DeGeneres Show formerly contained a section called "Going Vegan with Ellen", in which she promoted "Meatless Mondays" and featured vegan recipes.[113] In 2016, DeGeneres stated that she had re-introduced fish into her diet,[114] and confirmed that she had stopped following a vegan lifestyle "in the last year or two for no reason really" in her 2018 stand-up comedy special Relatable.[115]

DeGeneres has invited

Ag-Gag anti-whistleblower legislation in Tennessee, which would prohibit undercover investigators from recording footage of animal abuse on farms.[117] In 2010, DeGeneres served as campaign ambassador to Farm Sanctuary's Adopt-A-Turkey Project, asking people to start "a new tradition by adopting a turkey instead of eating one" at Thanksgiving.[118]

In November 2017, it was announced that President

David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. She also created a T-shirt with her brand whose proceeds also go to the organization.[122]

In January 2018, for DeGeneres's 60th birthday, de Rossi gifted her a permanent gorilla home in

Digit Fund.[123] This gift was part of a new arm of the Digit Fund now called the "Ellen DeGeneres Wildlife Fund".[124]

Friendship with George W. Bush

In October 2019, DeGeneres attended an NFL game between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys at the invitation of Cowboys owner Jerry Jones. While at the game, she was seated next to former president George W. Bush.[125] Her friendly interactions with Bush, captured by stadium cameras, attracted criticism due to his past opposition to same-sex marriage, his administration and his responsibility for the Iraq War and its associated torture and civilian deaths.[126][127][128] Actor Mark Ruffalo was among those who criticized DeGeneres for her friendship with Bush.[129]

In response to the criticism, DeGeneres explained her friendship with Bush in a monologue on her show.[130] During the segment, she maintained that she believes personal relationships should transcend political differences and compared her friendship with Bush to her friendships with people who wear fur, a practice she does not condone.[131] Former first lady Michelle Obama was among those who defended DeGeneres.[132]

Allegations of on-set bullying

In July 2020, ten former employees of The Ellen DeGeneres Show accused DeGeneres of creating a "toxic" on-set atmosphere of "racism, fear, and intimidation", including failing to address executives

Buzzfeed News, followed previous reports of hostile and bullying behavior, such as a former employee's allegation that DeGeneres fired him for setting up a GoFundMe page to cover medical costs not covered by their workplace health insurance.[134][135]

Months earlier, comedian and podcaster Kevin T. Porter published a thread on Twitter in which he called DeGeneres "notoriously one of the meanest people alive", and asked other Twitter users to post "stories you've heard about Ellen being mean", pledging to donate two dollars to the Los Angeles Food Bank for each post.[136] The thread quickly went viral, with several posts alleging situations where DeGeneres had been unkind (such as for firing people who greeted her or looked her in the eyes).[137]

In July 2020,

Warner Bros. Entertainment, released an interoffice memo that they would launch an internal investigation, employing WarnerMedia's employee relations team and a third-party consultant to conduct confidential interviews with current and former employees about their experiences on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.[138] DeGeneres herself, meanwhile, issued a statement to her staff taking responsibility for the workplace culture on the show and pledging to "correct the issues" going forward.[139][140] WarnerMedia began an investigation.[141] DeGeneres apologized to her staff, releasing a statement reading, "On day one of our show, I told everyone in our first meeting that 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' would be a place of happiness—no one would ever raise their voice, and everyone would be treated with respect. Obviously, something changed, and I am disappointed to learn that this has not been the case. And for that, I am sorry. Anyone who knows me knows it's the opposite of what I believe and what I hoped for our show."[139]

Following the investigation, three executives left (Kevin A. Leman II, Ed Glavin, and Jonathon Norman), and the show vowed to take steps to change the culture. DeGeneres apologized again during the eighteenth season's September 2020 opening.[142][143]
