  • NikkieTutorials just got brutally honest about her experience on The Ellen Show.

  • Nikkie said, “I was expecting a Disney show but got Teletubbies after dark.”


Nikkie de Jager of NikkieTutorials recently went on The Ellen Show, and apparently, the experience was...not great! In a recent interview, the YouTuber said she was super pumped to do the show but her experience didn’t exactly live up to expectations.

“Call me naive, but I kind of expected to be welcomed with confetti cannons: ‘Welcome to The Ellen DeGeneres Show!’ she told Dutch publication &C in a translated interview. “But instead, I was greeted by an angry intern who was a bit overworked. I was expecting a Disney show but got Teletubbies after dark.”

Nikkie elaborated with, “Every guest at Ellen’s had a private toilet, but I didn’t. I was not allowed to use the nearest toilet because it was reserved for the Jonas Brothers. Why do they get a private toilet? I thought. But in the end, my item had 8 million views afterward and theirs 2 million, ha!”

At the end of the day, Nikkie says she was “happy with the experience.” Buuut as E! notes, she previously went on the Dutch show De Wereld Draait Door and said Ellen “wasn’t as nice” as expected, saying, “It’s nice that you say hi before the show....She didn’t. Ellen is just such a different world.”

Yikes.
