DeGeneres recalls hitting rock bottom after coming out as gay

Published on

TV host Ellen DeGeneres hit rock bottom after she was made fun of for coming out as gay.

The 58-year-old talk show host was the “punch line of a lot of cruel jokes” when she came out but is feeling more positive about life now, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“I was the punch line of lots of jokes. I laughed at some, but I realised there’s somebody on the other side of them. It’s cruel. I’ve never liked mean comedy, but that became even more important to me after I was the brunt of it,” DeGeneres told OUT magazine.

“If this isn’t an example of ‘it gets better’, I don’t know what is. Time is a strange thing. I was at rock bottom and out of money, with no work in sight, but one step at a time, it gets better. It gets much better than better,” she added.

DeGeneres came out as a lesbian in an interview with Time magazine in 1997.
