“And remember to be kind…. Wait,” the Shooter alum, 46, captioned a sweaty selfie on his Instagram Story in front of a billboard promoting The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Phillippe has not appeared on the talk show since 2011. His ex-wife, Reese Witherspoon, with whom he shares daughter Ava, 21, and son Deacon, 17, has been friends with DeGeneres, 62, for years and most recently sat down with the TV host in March.

Rumors about DeGeneres being mean off the air have circulated in Hollywood for years, but the speculation ramped up in July after BuzzFeed News published back-to-back reports portraying her show as a toxic workplace. WarnerMedia subsequently launched an internal investigation into The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The Emmy winner addressed the backlash for the first time in a memo to employees in late July, writing in part, “On day one of our show, I told everyone in our first meeting that The Ellen DeGeneres Show would be a place of happiness — no one would ever raise their voice, and everyone would be treated with respect. Obviously, something changed, and I am disappointed to learn that this has not been the case. And for that, I am sorry. Anyone who knows me knows it’s the opposite of what I believe and what I hoped for our show.”

Us Weekly exclusively reported in August that producers assured staffers in a video call that “Ellen is not giving up and the show will go on.” DeGeneres led a second call later that month, in which she “admitted to being multilayered and said she has good days and bad days,” according to a source.

“She said she’s not on set as much as everyone else, and she didn’t know what was going on,” a second insider told Us at the time. “Ellen said she was ashamed and embarrassed to hear about it and assured [her staff] it would not continue.”

When The Ellen DeGeneres Show returned in September, the comedian kicked off the season 17 premiere by talking to viewers about her scandal-plagued summer.

“I know that I am in a position of privilege and power, and I realize that with that comes responsibility. And I take responsibility for what happens at my show,” she said. “This is The Ellen DeGeneres Show.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
