Ellen DeGeneres has earned quite a reputation in the Hollywood industry with one reason involving her dating game which she used to play with celebrities who appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Given that the show has witnessed quite peculiar and amazing moments, it also had a fair share of witnessing the host bossing or imposing her thoughts on others.
One such incident happened when she became a matchmaker for Marvel actress, Charlize Theron and tried to force her into considering to date $100 million rich star, Trevor Noah.

Ellen DeGeneres Pushed Charlize Theron to Date Trevor Noah
During a 2019 episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Nicole Kidman, Margot Robbie, and Charlize Theron made an appearance to promote their then-new film, Bombshell.
During one segment, the trio played “Who’d You Rather” with the show host where Robbie, Kidman along with Ellen DeGeneres were looking for the perfect partner who would be a fit for her to date. Since the actress mentioned being “shockingly available” after being single for a decade, they took charge of finding the best mate for her.
Initially showing pictures of high-profile stars like Drake, The Weeknd, and Milo Ventimiglia, DeGeneres took the game to the next level by putting up Trevor Noah on the list.
The Atomic Blonde actress quickly refused to date the comedian as she considered him her brother.
“He’s my brother. This is going to get awkward. Yeah, like, he literally is my brother.”
She definitely would have been in a tight spot but this little embarrassing moment didn’t just end at it as The Love Letter actress had much more on her sleeve.
Ellen DeGeneres Let Harry Styles and Michael B. Jordan Join The List!
While the actress-turned-TV host embarrassed Theron by putting the South African comedian on the list, it didn’t just end at it. She kept him in the mix and let the game continue until Black Panther actor, Michael B. Jordan came up.
The 65-year-old actress commented,
“I think we’re not going to be able to top Michael [B. Jordan].”
Even Theron’s co-stars sided with the host suggesting that The Old Guard actress can give him a shot but got puzzled for a moment when Harry Styles was put in the mix. Kidman went on to state that she can date him to which she replied, “I literally could be his mother.”
The Invasion actress was quick to reply stating, “I bet he likes older women”. She further teased her by commenting, “I’m actually thinking that is a really good match.” Eventually, the segment ended with the ladies having a great time mixed with a little embarrassment.
