Ellen DeGeneres cancels four stand-up tour dates with no explanation
Ellen DeGeneres has cancelled four dates on her stand-up tour.“Unfortunately, the event organiser has had to cancel your event,” reads a note on Ticketmaster‘s website, listing shows in Dallas, San Francisco, Seattle and Chicago as the ones affected.It’s currently unclear why those dates have been cancelled as other performances in those cities are still going ahead. The tour is currently scheduled to run until August 17.The stand-up tour marks her return to the spotlight two years after the cancellation of the Ellen DeGeneres Show, after employees accused executives of fostering a “toxic workplace” environment, alleging incidents of sexual misconduct, racism and bullying.DeGeneres, who was shocked by the claims at the time, recently addressed the show’s cancellation during one of her stand-up performances.The comic told the Los Angeles crowd she had been doing a lot of gardening since the show ended. “What else can I tell you?,” she added.
