Dozens of former employees of the show said that executive producer Ed Glavin “had a reputation for being handsy with women” and also made several employees uncomfortable by rubbing their shoulders and backs.
The Ellen Show has been a staple of daytime television for years. But now there are allegations of sexual misconduct by the producers, according to a BuzzFeed News report. All of the ex-employees asked to remain anonymous out of fear of retaliation.
There were also accusations made against head writer and executive producer Kevin Leman. An ex-employee said that Leman asked him for a handjob and oral sex in the bathroom at a company party in 2013. Another ex-employee in May 2017 said that she saw Leman grope a production assistant in a car. Another former employee said that they saw Leman grab a production assistant’s genitals on a separate occasion.
Another executive producer, Jonathan Norman, was also accused of sexual misconduct. One former employee stated that Norman groomed him and attempted to perform oral sex with him. Three of the former employee’s colleagues corroborated the former employee telling them about the incident at the time. On Thursday night, Norman said he was “100% categorically denying these allegations.
Some former employees believe that DeGeneres wasn’t aware of the scope of things because she didn’t spend much time with the staff and was insulated by the producers. Meanwhile, some other the former employees doubt that DeGeneres didn’t know about the sexual misconduct that was happening on her show, deeming it implausible that she wasn’t exposed to some of the same stories.
