Netflix has released the trailer of Ellen DeGeneres’s upcoming comedy special, which marks her return to stand-up after a 15-year hiatus.
In the newly released trailer, DeGeneres explains she told one of her friends about her forthcoming stand-up comeback – and the announcement was met with a lacklustre reaction.
The comedian also recounts how a TV station manager once told her: “No one is going to watch a lesbian during the day.”
“He said, ‘Well, do you think you’re still relatable?'” the comedian recounts, eliciting laughter from the crowd.
