It’s hard to believe, but Ellen DeGeneres —often known for spreading kindness with her popular talk show — is making headlines for all of the wrong reasons. Throughout this time at home, she’s had two big blow-ups in the media. One was a thread encouraging her old staff members and crew to tell stories about what she’s really like off-camera. But, that wasn’t it. A story came out saying that Ellen hasn’t paid her staff since the studios shut down.

In a time when everyone is feeling the financial struggle, Ellen has reportedly treated her crew members poorly. Variety reports that “the core stage crew for The Ellen DeGeneres Show, consisting of more than 30 employees, received no written communication about the status of their working hours, pay, or inquiries about their mental and physical health from producers for over a month, said two sources, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity. Higher-ups in production would occasionally answer phone calls but reveal little, added one of the sources.”

What’s making matter’s worse? Ellen’s still technically filming. She, like many other talk show hosts, has run a remote show from the comforts of her home. And instead of paying her crew, she’s working with a different company. With a move like that, it’s safe for her original crew to assume they’re out of work.
