Ellen robbed...
Ellen is from my home town and I have been following her for years and enjoying her show, when I could see it. She had a different Rolex on in almost almost every show.
Hope she had a safe and did not lose them all. https://pagesix.com/2020/08/15/burgl...850.1596914469 |

I’ve never been a fan of hers. Ever since I can remember I always thought she was stuck up. I wasn’t surprised at the reports coming out against her. She seems to me to fit that profile. It doesn’t warrant to have her stuff stolen, but karma is a $$$$$. Hope she gets her stuff back.

When unflattering stories come out like the ones now circulating about Ellen and her show, I think of a saying that Jim Rome often uses when something similar happens with a professional athlete.
"We don't know any of these guys."

That’s interesting timing for sure. If an inside job as the article states, it’s not going to be difficult to figure. Her watches aren’t all exactly common. Thanks for sharing

Of course the outcome would be the same. A watch I couldn't wear in public or Portia looking at me with indifference, like .....what????

It’s all subterfuge, just like the end of her show. Don’t look over here, look over there.

Prince Harry and Megan picked off “a deal” on a $14M home there. The area must not be too shabby. They never came around to check out my neighborhood!

Male or female, if you're going for alpha, own it. Her in between, trying to play the role of both empath AND alpha ends up a bizarre and cartoony look...IMHO. Hope she gets her watches and jewellery back but she's one whose celebrity and appeal I'll just never understand. |

We have to remember these shows are "Hollywood". The 15 minutes the guests are there, they all try to impress the star struck audience that they are just "regular people". Lots of them are jerks. This may be their fifth show in a few days. They have to do the promotions even if they don't want to. As the "star" she has for 24 hours a day, large numbers of people who want a piece of her. Constantly. Asking questions, wanting favors, needing her opinion. So she has buffers. People who's job it is to keep her insulated. Layers of them. Then she works for NBC who owns magazines, publishing, music, TV and movie studios. They all want her to promote whomever has a new song, movie, TV show etc. These "stars" all bring their entourage along to get the demands of the "stars" met for their 15 minute 'regular person" close ups. They all want the personal touch, not assistants. So she has to deal with this nonsense, daily. Her show is shown daily but often taped a couple of shows at a time. She has tons of production people lining up the weeks shows, and stars and ideas. She has a writers room full of people for her monologues and jokes. This all takes a lot of people and it's run like a pressure packed ratings seeking corporation on a quarterly earnings month. There are tons of people, egos and hangers on and star struck morons chasing her around. People burn out. Things can get said, I'm sure. The pressure in Hollywood is intense. One false move and you can be toast. So yes, it's all on her. But unlike any corporation or business, Hollywood is a shit show. And you have to keep smiling while the cameras are rolling. Garry Shandling had a show a number of years ago about behind the scenes of a talk show and Rip Torn was his hatchet man, to keep the idiots at bay. Pretty good show.

No one deserves to be robbed.
Here’s hoping they catch the lowlifes whoever they maybe.

Nice try Tom but half the members here can’t stand Ellen long before any of this recent media coverage. Every thread about her has the same types chipping in their 2 cents.

Regardless of who we think she may or may not be (like any of us really know) I’m sorry to hear she was robbed.

Never been a fan but if a robbery did in fact occur that sucks for her or anybody else.

I think most average people have a hard time sympathizing with someone who can’t manage to secure their belongings in a $27M home. Fact is, her jewelry should’ve never been accessible to anyone but her and and her wife. With her finances there’s no reason she shouldn’t have a state of the art security and storage system |
