ploration of different looks, signaling a shift toward a more natural aesthetic.
DeGeneres’s return to California is noteworthy, especially since many had believed she and de Rossi had relocated permanently to the Cotswolds region in the U.K. after the U.S. presidential elections. While DeGeneres has yet to confirm their permanent move, she had previously hinted at leaving the U.S. when she announced during a July 2024 standup show in Santa Rosa, California, that it would be her last appearance before retiring from the public eye after her Netflix special.
Despite the intrigue surrounding her move and private life, DeGeneres’s return to the public spotlight coincides with a period of personal reflection. The comedian faced significant public scrutiny following the 2020 reports of a toxic workplace environment during her talk show’s 19-season run. After the allegations surfaced, DeGeneres addressed the controversy in May 2021, admitting confusion over the claims but also acknowledging the impact they had on her career. In her September 2024 Netflix special, For Your Approval, DeGeneres humorously reflected on the incident, saying, “I got kicked out of show business. You can’t be mean and be in show business. No, they’ll kick you out.” This light-hearted take on a serious issue revealed her attempt to find humor in the aftermath of the scandal.
Ellen’s evolving look and her willingness to address her past controversies seem to signify a new chapter in her life, with a focus on reinvention and embracing the changes that come with both personal and professional growth.
