In a report by The Sun, an audience named Dana Dimatteo was once a part of the audience on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. She shared her experience with the media outlet, and that’s not pleasant at all. Dana shared that Ellen’s show had many rules for the members of the audience. She shared, “I didn’t enjoy myself on the show. You have to follow all these rules, you can’t be yourself, you have to clap constantly and laugh at things that aren’t funny.”
Dimatteo further shared that if the audience members were asked to join Ellen DeGeneres in front of the camera, they weren’t allowed to speak out of turn, only if the show host wanted them to. She added they were, “not allowed to be funnier or smarter than Ellen, that she is the star and the comedian, not us.” She further added that the kind and fun self of Ellen that people see on screen is only for the camera, and in reality, “During commercial breaks, Ellen would break out of her ‘kind’ character and sit moodily in silence on her couch, not acknowledging anyone.”
