I remember when she was on comedians in cars getting coffee and instantly started bitching about how "this generation doesn't want to work" or some shit and turned it off. Made it like 5 minutes in

She told him not to leave his keys in the car, which he did anyway. Then she took them when he wasn’t looking, and let him fumble for a minute looking for them. Then she revealed she took them to “teach him a lesson”.

The most insufferable person you know.

Her pranks are usually like that - not funny to the person being pranked. I remember the shows where she tortured Taylor Swift with constant pranks and Taylor kept saying how much she hated it.

Where she forced Mariah Carey to reveal her early pregnancy by trying to get to drink champagne on her show.

Doesn't seem like a big deal but a lot of women don't reveal pregnancies early on because most miscarriages happen in the first three months. Dealing with your grief publicly can be hard.

Of course Mariah Carey suffered a miscarriage that time.

Ellen is a fucking cunt for that. And for all the other things, but I've helped my sisters through that experience and it's awful that she made hers that much harder for clout. What a garishly selfish parasite.

i never really had a reason to dislike her aside from the typical reasons for the hate she gets, but that is especially shitty if she did that on purpose. how the hell does someone like that become so 'successful'? what do people like about her?
