Stephen "tWitch" Boss, The Ellen DeGeneres Show's house DJ in 2014, broke his silence over the issues surrounding the show and his boss. Despite the claims of the alleged toxic work environment the show has and the 62-year-old host's mean behavior, he said there is "love."
The 37-year-old hip hop dancer told Us Weekly he couldn't speak too much legally about the show, but he simply said there has been love on it. Although the choreographer couldn't deny some things needed to be addressed, there was warmth out of it.
Boss tried not to talk much about it, explaining there is a perfect time to address the issue publicly. He just reiterated there would always be love on the show.
In a separate interview with E! News, he added he feels blessed to have studio audiences, who are all ready to dance, laugh, and have a good time on the show. It, also, adds up to that feel-good feeling that they are happy to be on Ellen.
Boss explained there are not too many gigs that could make someone feel these things every day, building a "genuine love from front to back." Meanwhile, talking about everyone's return to work, he admitted he is "anxious," and he would miss his time with his wife, Allison Holker, and kids at home.
The couple shares two kids, Maddox, 4, and Zaia, 13 months. Hoker, also, has a daughter, Weslie, 12, from her previous relationship. The entertainer continued being able to be with the children and the whole family might have resulted in a "little bit of separation anxiety" when everyone returns to work.
Ellen has been on the air since 2013. Amid the controversy it is facing, DeGeneres issued a public apology to its former staffers, who recently came to light to reveal the unhealthy environment the show has behind the camera.
This also incited its parent company, WarnerMedia, to launch an internal investigation to know what really happened. The veteran comedian promised to make sure the show would have a workplace "based on respect and inclusion," USA Today noted.
Meanwhile, after DeGeneres issued an apology, Brad Garrett revealed it was a "common knowledge" that people were mistreated people on the set. However, he mostly blamed Portia de Rossi's wife as much as the show's producers, who were the complaints' targets.
Although DeGeneres already assured these series of incidents would never happen again, Garrett asked the television personality to be more responsible for her show's producers' actions.
