lil meow meow she did say that. I’ve watched and translated the video myself. Ellen wouldn’t shake hands with Nikkie and Nikkie wasn’t allowed to speak to her before the show. She also admits that every TV show she’s been on that’s been American, they’ve treated her rudely, but the European Tv shows she’s been on have treated her more kindly.

[@jenb8488]

Jaydon HP these rules are probably the same as all the other talk shows too.

[@waaaah1405]

it’s similar - if not, almost the exact same - for award shows or any event that requires an audience. i’m not a big fan of ellen, but people are just nitpicking on things that are set by the people handling the audience.

[@allexayare5459]

I had been an audience once to a local tv show in my country and all this rules are pretty much the same as in ours. We were told to dance when the camera is on us or we were gonna get transferred in the back if you do not dance as energetic as the producers wanted us to be. We didn't mind it at all because who wants to sit in the back far away from the celebrities you came to watch?

[@jaydonhp8818]

Allexa Yare I’ve been to one taping but it for for a tv show (heartland) Q&A and the actors took the time before and after the show for all the fans to take photos and say hello, but I’m assuming it’s not the same lol however the presenters would only choose people to come up to play games or to ask questions who were energetic opposed to the ones just raising a hand. I guess they want their shoes to appear as if it’s the most amazing experience so people watch it. Still really dumb rules to follow. As an audience member there shouldn’t be any forcing of dancing or clapping etc. Kind of ruins the whole “fun aspect” if you will.

I was an audience member this past May and I was a nervous wreck when it came to all the rules! I was scared about my party’s outfits, arrival times, and all the other restrictions. By the time we showed up to the line to wait and go into the studio it was clear that almost no one followed the rules, most were in casual clothing, took out their phones and took pictures in the studio, etc. Ellen was sweet, I didn’t get the sense that she was rude or uptight, she took the time to say hi and gave a monologue about how she appreciates people coming from all over to see the show. There really isn’t mandatory dancing, the vibe is LIT so no one feels forced or out of place. There are dance contests during “commercial breaks”, games, as well as singing! The prizes were T-shirts and a year of Spotify premium. The show was fun, my party had a great time and we even got invited to be audience members on Ellen’s Game of Games! Although there are tons of rules, nothing feels strict once you’re in the studio seeing her in real life. It’s an amazing experience y’all.

[@bridgetmurphyv]

Her rules are too much bs

[@adris432]

Well, it kind of makes sense...you need to apply because they need the studio to be full and when someone doesn't come for whatever reason, they need to have a replacement, a reserve. So they book more people than they need. It works like that when extras work in film (or other variety shows) too. They always need a reserve.

[@lindsaykearney5089]

That’s pretty normal for these kind of shows. SNL is much worse. You have to get in line at about 4 am (sometimes earlier, like the afternoon or night before) to get a ticket to come back for either the dress rehearsal or the live show. When you come back, you line up in the order you were in when you initially lined up and you have to wait for another hour or so. They put me through security and they were all cheering me on and telling me to enjoy the show, and then when I was 4 people away from going in. I could literally see the studio and part of the stage, and they sent me home. Rough.

To be honest I have never seen the generous kind side, but more a person wanting to be liked and approved of. Then again I don't know her, but in recent years you can tell her vibe has changed into a colder one.

For someone wanting to be liked more than what is normal, she doesn't kiss enough behinds. And on the other side, I'm not as old as she is, and I can get far colder when I sense bs or am being taken for granted and used. And I'm not a public figure like she is, thus not as many people lie and try to use me as they probably do to her.

Play along or get out. 75% of these rules are about maintaining that brand and image.

True, but don't forget Oprah. She is way WORSE

[@aliciawestco]

They need to get their facts checked because most of these “rules” are bs. I’ve been on the Ellen Degeneres show twice so I actually know what I’m talking about. You don’t have that many restrictions on dress code, you do know when the show is going to air, and the audience being at the mercy of the elements is so laughable. You wait in a parking garage with fans, benches, and vending machines and it’s in Burbank for goodness sake. The elements in Southern California is what? Perfect weather?! These are just to name a few things they got terribly wrong.

[@danlobs2543]

[@alozzzy1213]

[@Manel_me]

Is it true that you can't wear whatever you want?

[@alozzzy1213]

@@Manel_me They mean that theres is a certain look shows try to give off. They want to show off modern styles. They don't want any one outfit to stand out, so as to distract. As well, they want to evoke the message that viewers of Ellen, aka the audience, are sophisticated and dress smart. Not too smart.. as that would alienate the core demographic. Imagine watching a show where everyone in the audience in decked out in Hèrmes and Chanel, etc, while also trying to appeal to middle-class Americans. Thats a juxtaposition. So while they will not dictate to you what to specifically wear, i.e. you have choice, but if your goal is to be in the audience, you have to make sure your style and outfit fits in the parameters they set. To re-frame, when I worked at Starbucks we were required to wear greys, blacks and couldn't have flashy colors or logos. They wanted the employees to line up with the brand image. When you think Target what colors do you see? Red polos, khaki pants. Its synonymous. So is this type of dress code with Ellen, as well as countless other shows. This isn't the only show where one would have to make sure they are dressed appropriately. I didn't intend to make this response this long but enjoyed writing it. Hope this helps :)

[@akvnflz]

Katherine P most of them are pretty basic and are targeted towards guest stars, not the audience. The only rules for the audience that I really picked up on is no cameras, anything that can’t get past airport security, and no brand names/neutral colors. I personally don’t agree with the brand name/color rule, but it is her show and she wants it to be happy and equal I guess. She doesn’t want other audience members getting jealous because another member is wearing Gucci? It also makes sense as to why she doesn’t want cameras, because what’s the point of an audience if they’re just going to be watching the entire thing on their phone? It’s a little disrespectful.

[@niahelmee6890]

@@akvnflz yup precisely

[@adris432]

@@akvnflz The brand name issue is a general rule, though... I sometimes work as an extra in films and everytime we are asked to bring clothes with no visible branding. It's because of endorsement deals and rules about promoting stuff etc. They (the production) would have to get an ok from those particular brands to have them featured on the show... The colours are a bit specific, but it has to do with a vision / feel of the show, as well as certain colours not looking good on camera under certain lighting. :) And yeah, the no camera rule also makes sense. People would leak clips before airing.

[@RachaelTheRed]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH SHE CANT SIGN ANYTHING YET U CAN BRING HER GIFTS.Jesus

[@nessecity]

The video literally says it's because she doesn't have time during and that gifts can be left with staff who can deliver them when she does have time? Which is probably quite a while after people go home, she might not even manage to open gifts until she herself is done for the day and at her own home (and no one says people have to bring gifts, it just says they can if they want to which some people do)? If she was to sign things during filming, that'd eventually be all she'd have time for because everyone would expect it. And it wouldn't be fair to the rest if she only chose a few when everyone is so used to her giving the whole audience the same things. Does any show host sign things during their shows? Serious question, I've yet to see or read about it happening.

The guest has the option to decline to appear. I don't think that she will make or break anyone whether they appear or not. Bullying people to dance isn't appropriate, nor is scaring people you don't know. Those who feel that they need their 15 minutes of fame will go anyway.
