Ellen DeGeneres’ protégée Greyson Chance doubled down on his claims that the comedian is “manipulative” and “opportunistic” in a scathing new TikTok video.
“I stand behind all of it,” the singer, 25, said on Thursday, shortly after his bombshell Rolling Stone interview about the talk show host, 64, was published.
“I’ve been wanting to tell this story now for multiple years and was repeatedly told not to,” Chance explained.
“But the truth is, what you saw on TV and what was pitched out to the mainstream just wasn’t what was happening behind the scenes.”
The songwriter added that “what happened to [him] as a kid was not cool,” leading to “PTSD” and “trauma.”
Chance said, “I’m sure people will have a lot to say about the article and how I maybe appear ungrateful for [DeGeneres’] efforts in the beginning, and the truth is that I am grateful for her giving me a start, but I’m more grateful to myself for the moments when I got dropped and everything went awry when I was a kid.”
He thanked his teenage self, who was able to “pick up the pieces” and “fight.”
The singer described his “PTSD” and “trauma.”
