Ellen DeGeneres made light of being "kicked out of show business" for being "mean" after allegations in 2020 of a hostile work environment and sexual misconduct on the set of her talk show.

"The hate went on for a long time and I would try to avoid looking at the news," she said. "The 'be kind' girl wasn't kind. That was the headline." After her stand-up routine, the comedian took questions from fans in the audience. When asked if she still "danced" during tough times, DeGeneres said it was hard to maintain the same positivity she preached on her show for so many years.

DeGeneres further admitted she was "in a funk" that started to affect her wife of 16 years, Portia de Rossi. DeGeneres said she has since come to terms with what became of her career.
