So, on Reddit (not a good place, I know), the most upvoted comment to a post saying “You get a call from a woman and it makes you angry. Who is she?” was “Ellen ‘Degenerate’”. (Their words, not mine). Since it was hugely upvoted, why is she so bad? All I know is that she is a talk show host and a lesbian.

    She often overstepped the guests’ boundaries. For exampled she pressured Mariah Carey into drinking alcohol as a toast to “not being pregnant” in order to force her to admit she was pregnant. Carey later said she didn’t want to discuss her pregnancy due to a history of miscarriages. She also got really aggressive towards a guest for not having been invited to her birthday party. That’s just her on-camera behavior. There are numerous stories of her being an asshole to basically everyone behind the scenes.
