Ellen DeGeneres Accused Of Fat-Shaming Boy In the '70s
Blast ^ | 8/7/2020 | Emily Reily

Posted on 08/24/2020 3:51:06 PM PDT by simpson96

A man claims that when he was 11 in the '70s, Ellen DeGeneres, then in her 20s, would call him names and bully and fat-shame him when she worked as a recruiter in New Orleans.(snip)

Gravolet says DeGeneres worked at Snelling Personnel in the New Orleans branch, a company owned by Gravolet's mother.(snip)

Gravolet says the comedian was "was just the meanest, nastiest, most horrible person."

He told "Daily Mail TV": "One incident stands out in my mind. I was sitting beside her desk. I was drawing, and she criticized the drawings. She said 'I guess that would look nice if you could draw.' "

Gravolet continued:

"It appears to me that she hoards power over those that are lesser than her. It's almost as if she has to feel controlling. It seems like she has to be superior, be better."

"I would dread going to [my mom's] office to see her after school or on a day if I was sick and Ellen was there," Gravolet said.

Gravolet called her "vile":

"As I watched her meteoric rise to fame, people would say how great she was and all I could think was she must be an incredible actor because she was one of the most vile people I've ever met in my life. Who takes pleasure in giving a child pain?' "(snip)

"She would criticize my weight. I would try to do homework in the office, she'd call me stupid, she'd call me fat. She would criticize my clothes.

I was just a boy and this was a grown woman who took pleasure in seeing me become visibly upset."

"I don't think there's any excuse for it. I was a defenseless kid. What could I have told her back?

She was ashamed of who she was and took her pain out on a child

Latent homicidal maniacs they are.

And they won’t be latent much longer.

She committed a cardinal sin to the left - sat next to W at a baseball game and defended her decision to do so.

They’re intent on taking her out because of it, and appear to be succeeding.

OK, I’m no fan of Ellen & have never watched 1 minute of her show, but the ‘70’s? When she was 20?

Oh man. A vicious egotistical tyrannical entertainment personality who mistreats people who can’t fight back. Color me shocked. Like Alec Baldwin, Madonna, Peter Sellers, Joan Crawford, Cher, Mike Myers, James Cameron, Otto Preminger, Marlon Brando...... jeez.

The list is endless.

So why is Ellen being singled out? Because she was nice to Dubya? It seems that then is when this started.

Bullies need a good smackdown every so often. Ellen show was taken off the air in Australia and I suspect here in the USA soon.

Ellen is on the "bad" list. They're out to get her. What did she do to upset the elites?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Let's not forget. Ellen was in the Epstein Lolita Express flight logs.

This is not a good psuedo-woman.

Why defend her? She is not a good guy for sitting next to W, who is also a derp stater.

Let her rot.

Well, I’m not gonna sugar coat because you’d probably eat that too but, yer still fat.

Effin baby.

I was fat at 13, went back to school after summer and found the girls had grown some things I found interesting and I lost that fat PDQ

Now, I’m in my 50’s and weigh the same. Thing is, I’m going to Elvis on this fat and lose it again PDQ.

Can’t deny the women out there anymore of my affections...

And the next couple Christmas’ should be ripe with sad faced women who only wan’t to be understood...

The 70s? Uh, oh. I’m pretty sure the parking meter went into “expired” back then just as I was getting into the car. Are they after me now? Long memories for any imperfect act long ago.

Look, she’s a vile human being. But I’m tired of the smear campaign against her. Take your memories and shove them buddy. You didn’t bother telling us when she was rising to popularity, but suddenly you care? Riiiight.

I’m not defending her. I’m just wondering why the RATs are throwing her under the bus now. They don’t really give a f*** about these sorts of accusations or a whole lot of other lefties would be sucking wind along with her.
