Ellen DeGeneres declared sheâs bidding Hollywood farewell once her âlastâ comedy special gets released this year, following the series of âtoxic behaviorâ controversies she got caught up in over the years.
During a recent stand-up show in Santa Rosa, California (via People Magazine), the seasoned comedian-host was asked whether she would return to show business full-time, two years after her talk show, âThe Ellen DeGeneres Show,â was canceled when staffers alleged âbad behaviorâ against her.
âNo. This is the last time youâre going to see me. After my Netflix special, Iâm done,â she stated.
Following her statement, DeGeneres canceled a number of her upcoming tour stops without citing any reason behind the cancellation, as reported by Forbes on July 10.
The 66-year-old stand-up comedian also briefly recalled the controversies she faced in previous years, hinting that her upcoming Netflix comedy special will address the allegations.
