An audience member on the “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” is speaking about how she said she was treated backstage by producers after appearing on a segment called “Make It Rain,” in which guests are drenched after answering trivia questions. Dana Dimatteo said she was thrilled to be picked out of the audience, but was left wet and shivering by producers. She said she was shocked what producers told her before the segment, “you can’t be smarter or funnier than Ellen. She’s the comedian — not you.” #InsideEdition

It’s 2026 and Ellen is still a cant!
What were they expecting? Silly people.
They say to never meet your heroes.
Self-perception is a weird thing. I know a couple of bullies who have no idea why people don’t like them.
I don’t like Ellen at all
😢
Just seen this, here in 2026:
Went to the Ellen show in 2016-17
I went to her show, sat in the front row…..had a lovely experience and left $500.00 richer lol
My experience was lovely and Ellen was gracious, sweet and SO grateful! She thanked ALL of us for coming to her show (it was a long day as they filmed part of another show), and it honestly felt sincere and no she was not acting.
So please let’s remember that there is always 2 sides to every story.
