In recent months, Ellen Degeneres has come under massive fire due to reports that her employees have been repeatedly exposed to racism and intimidation in the workplace. Despite the dismissal of three producers, it now appears that the talk show host is being punished en masse on social media.

In the past year, Ellen Degeneres lost more than 540,000 followers on Instagram and 612,000 followers on Twitter. This is evident from a report by GamblingDeals.com. It can be deduced from this that the many fans are not exactly satisfied with the controversy surrounding the American talk show host.
For example, she came under heavy fire in the past year, after several employees of The Ellen Show spoke about the downright toxic work atmosphere within the company, where racism and intimidation were not shunned. The presenter then fired three producers and promised to take the necessary measures to optimize the working atmosphere.

The American talk show host is by the way not the only well-known figure who will drop many followers in recent months. YouTuber Jeffree Star saw his Twitter followers shrink by 487,000 followers and on Instagram by 444,000 after a public fight with another YouTuber. And JK Rowling saw 351,000 followers disappear on Twitter after she came under fire for her statements about transgender people.
