Beware Hidden Cameras
On “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” there have been a number of notable cringeworthy moments, but none have been so pointedly directed at a member of the audience as this one. It all began as a simple freebie. Ellen is well-known for her selflessness.

Freebies, such as show-branded hats and bags, were set up on tables for her audience to take advantage of. Only take one thing at a time. What she didn’t tell them was that Hollywood surveillance cameras would be monitoring the entire giveaway, in color and high definition sound.
