Ellen DeGeneres Thinks About Ending Her Talk Show

Ellen DeGeneres admitted in her New York Times interview that she does think about leaving her talk show behind.

The interview notes that “she had been close to declining” the option to extend her contract (Ellen‘s current contract runs through the summer of 2020).

“She gets mad when my brother tells me I can’t stop [hosting the show],” Ellen said, speaking about her wife Portia de Rossi.

Portia then interjected, “I just think she’s such a brilliant actress and standup that it doesn’t have to be this talk show for her creativity; there are other things she could tackle. I don’t see the end of her show as her career ending.”
