She continued, stating that the fall from grace was made worse considering that she was once viewed as one of the most trusted people in the country and that fans and friends alike would often ask her to babysit their children. That doesn't happen anymore, she said, noting that it actually isn't the worst thing now that she is out of child-watching duty. and being rude -- told the audience that while she is many things, she does not consider herself to be a"mean" person.
"I got kicked out of show business. There's no mean people in show business," DeGeneres said during a comedy set, per "Do you know how hard it is to dance up steps? Would a mean person dance up steps?" she added."Had I ended my show by saying, 'Go f**k yourself,' people would've been pleasantly surprised.”led to some major realizations. It appears the jokes were her first run-through for what will be the routine for her tour.
