Season 18 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show premiered today!

The show debuted a virtual audience for COVID-19 safety and welcomed her first guest Tiffany Haddish.

Her monologue did address the controversy about the alleged toxic work environment.

“I learned that things happened here that never should have happened. I take that very seriously and I want to say I am so sorry to the people who are affected,” said Ellen. “I know that I’m in a position of privilege and power and I realize that with that comes responsibility, and I take responsibility for what happens at my show.”

With everything that’s happened, we take a look at the career of Ellen DeGeneres through the years:
