    “This Is the Last Time You’re Going to See Me”: Ellen Degeneres Says She’s Leaving Hollywood

    In good news for those who are tired of her tedious leftism, comic and entertainer Ellen DeGeneres said during a stop on her “Ellen’s Last Stand…Up” comedy tour that she is wrapping up her career as a celebrity and comedian once she is done with the final few shows of this comedy tour, which is being filmed for a comedy special on Netflix.

    Ellen’s comments on the matter came when, during the audience Q&A part of the show at Santa Rosa, California’s, Luther Burbank Center for the Arts one of those fans who showed up for the sho asked her if she would be doing anything else after this tour ends, such as returning to Hollywood movies or trying out Broadway.

    She said that she would not be doing any of that and that she would be wrapping things up with the comedy special on Netflix put together with material from this tour. She said, matter-of-factly and without any noticeable comedy, Variety reports, “Um, no. This is the last time you’re going to see me. After my Netflix special, I’m done.”

    But while she said that this is the end of her career, it wasn’t the end of the questions about it. Another fan, at the same event, Variety reports, pressing her to go back to Hollywood and again voice the character Dory from Pixar’s beloved “Finding Nemo” and its well-liked sequel, “Finding Dory.” DeGeneres didn’t bend, saying, “No, I’m going bye-bye, remember.”

    During the show in Santa Rosa, DeGeneres also addresses the allegations of “racism, sexual misconduct and intimidation behind the scenes” that led to the end of the Ellen DeGeneres Show, saying, “Let me catch you up on what’s been going on with me since you last saw me. I got chickens. Oh yeah, and I got kicked out of show business for being mean.”

    Further addressing those allegations, she reportedly admitted that she “can be demanding and impatient and tough.” Justifying being that way, DeGeneres said, “I am a strong woman.” She then tried to refute the charge that acting that way justified her being fired for being “mean,” saying, “I am many things, but I am not mean.”

    She did, however, admit that she cares about public acclaim and what people think about her more than she thought she did when “at the height” of her popularity, back before the accusations that led to the end of her show. She said, “I used to say, ‘I don’t care what people say about me.’ Now I realize I said that during the height of my popularity.”

    In another show on the same comedy tour, Variety reports, Ellen said, “I just thought, ‘Well this is not the way I wanted to end my career, but this is the way it’s ending.’ … I just hated the way the show ended.” She also reportedly said, speaking about her cancelled talk show, “I love that show so much and I just hated that the last time people would see me is that way.”
