The Finding Nemo star said that “it’s going to really be difficult on the last day but I also know its time” The Hollywood Reporter told. “I am a creative person and you need to constantly be challenged. That’s why I decided that I would host the Oscars, or why I went back to speak up when I didn’t believe I would. I needed something that would challenge me. This show, as good as it is and as entertaining as it is, is no challenge anymore. I need something to challenge me.”

Since DeGeneres’ debut in 2003, she has hosted a lot of celebrities, many of whom have been the targets of her slapstick humor. After allegations regarding toxic set behavior, the show’s reputation was hit.

A July 2020 letter to staff was obtained by Us Weekly. The host stated that she had always wanted the show be a place of happiness and apologized for any changes. She wrote, “Obviously, something happened, and I am sorry to learn that this is not the case.” “I am sorry for this. It’s not what I believe or what I wanted for our show, as anyone who knows me will know.

Later, the Emmy winner stated that she was hurt by the accusations but claimed that they were not the reason she ended the show. She told THR, “If I quit the show because that happened, I wouldn’t have come back to this season.”

An insider revealed to Us shortly after DeGeneres announced that the show was ending. The host wanted to make sure she leaves with a bang.

The source said that the entire next season will be a celebration for the past 18 years. It’s not just the last show that’s hugely hooray. It’s all of them.

According to the source, the Louisiana native informed her staff far ahead of season 19, because she wanted them time to adjust to the news.

The insider said Us that her team was her priority. “She wanted to be sure she was communicating all of this in advance so that they could have another year to enjoy and make it the best year possible.”
