Ellen DeGeneres is emerald-proving that brunettes can indeed have a blast. In a hilarious Instagram video posted on Sunday, the comedian unveiled her new hair hue while attempting, quite comically, to mow the lawn, presumably at her quaint countryside abode in the UK. Captioning the clip, DeGeneres quipped, "Portia thought it would be a riot to film my maiden voyage on the mower. She hit the nail on the head."
The star of "Finding Nemo" was spotted joyfully navigating the lawn mower across a sprawling, sun-drenched meadow. At first, DeGeneres seemed to be acing her new endeavor with ease. However, the video then transitioned to a scene where the comedian required assistance from a gentleman, who lent a helping hand by pushing the mower up a steep incline on the property. Accompanying the two segments, she penned, "How it started" and "How it ended," adding a touch of whimsical humor to her unexpected adventure.
The 67-year-old former talk show host was first noticed with her darker locks in November 2024, when she and her wife, Portia de Rossi, were snapped enjoying a night out with friends. A friend shared a video of the duo having a ball at The Farmer’s Dog, a cozy UK pub, following their exile from the US amidst Donald Trump's second presidential victory. Among their circle of acquaintances was none other than "Torn" singer Natalie Imbruglia.
Last autumn, DeGeneres and de Rossi, 52, reportedly made the Cotswolds, a picturesque region in Southwest England roughly two hours away from London, their new home. At that time, sources told TMZ that the couple wanted an immediate escape from the US following Trump's triumph over Kamala Harris. However, it's worth noting that the loving duo had already purchased the property prior to the 2024 election, according to the outlet, hinting at their premeditated move across the pond.
