Don’t Talk, Don’t Approach, Don’t Look
Neil Breen, a radio host and former TV producer who lives in Australia, tells Ellen’s team about his meeting with them. Once, DeGeneres worked with the person in charge of Australia’s “Today” show at the time. Her people told his that no one on his production team can talk to Ellen.
Breen said, “So, you don’t talk to her, you don’t go up to her, and you don’t look at her.” He said it was “strange” that he couldn’t look at her. Given all the demands, he said he didn’t know if Ellen was nice or not. But he did say, “Everyone who did work with her had to walk on eggshells.”
