Margaret Cho Calls Ellen DeGeneres “Creepy and Weird” Over Alleged Snub of David Bowie Interview
Comedian and actress Margaret Cho has made headlines after calling fellow entertainer Ellen DeGeneres “creepy and weird” during a recent podcast appearance, reigniting discussions about Ellen’s long-standing reputation in the industry.
Cho shared a personal anecdote in which she accused Ellen of intentionally cutting out a segment from an interview where the late David Bowie had praised her. According to Cho, the incident occurred years ago when Bowie appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and mentioned Cho in a favorable light. However, when the episode aired, the part where Bowie spoke about Cho was allegedly edited out.
“I was told that David Bowie said something really nice about me on Ellen’s show. But when it aired, that part was gone. She cut it. It felt personal, and honestly, really disrespectful,” Cho said during the podcast.
She went on to describe Ellen’s behavior as “creepy and weird,” expressing her disappointment not only in the edit but also in what she perceived as a deliberate attempt to downplay or erase her presence in that moment.
The comments have sparked online debate, with fans and critics weighing in on both sides. Some have supported Cho’s statements, pointing to past controversies involving Ellen DeGeneres, particularly surrounding her workplace conduct and treatment of guests and staff. Others believe the incident may have been the result of standard editing decisions rather than personal animosity.
As of now, Ellen DeGeneres has not publicly responded to Cho’s claims.
This incident adds to a growing list of public criticisms aimed at the former talk show host, whose once-wholesome public image was tarnished in recent years following accusations of fostering a toxic work environment behind the scenes of her hit daytime show.
Whether the edit was intentional or not, Margaret Cho’s candid remarks have reignited questions about how celebrity narratives are controlled — and who gets to be included or excluded in moments of recognition.
