Shortly after Greyson Chance slammed Ellen DeGeneres for being “manipulative,” Charlie Puth is opening up about his own experiences at the former television host’s music label.
In case you missed it, Greyson recently did an interview with Rolling Stone where he said he “never met someone more manipulative, more self-centered and more blatantly opportunistic than her.” Ellen had signed the singer to her label eleveneleven in 2010 after a video of him performing Lady GaGa’s Paparazzi went viral online.

But instead of being a dream come true for Greyson, the experience actually had been a nightmare. He claimed the 64-year-old “became domineering and way too controlling” with every aspect of his career before “completely” abandoning him once his music under performed:
That’s rough…
Now, Charlie has addressed those allegations. As you may recall, the 30-year-old singer first rose to fame after a YouTube video of him singing Someone Like You by Adele with Emily Luther went viral in 2011. The two ended up singing the song on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and were signed to her record label. However, a year later, Charlie left eleveneleven. Why is that? Well, it sounds like he also had been ghosted by Ellen and her label like Greyson!
In a new interview with Rolling Stone published on Saturday, he shared that he often felt abandoned by Ellen’s label shortly after signing with them. And while Charlie did not have an issue with the Finding Nemo star, he did have a problem with the team running eleveneleven. Charlie explained:
While Ellen did not respond to the claims, a source close to her team told Rolling Stone that they don’t remember this happening. Charlie

Ilana Kaplan It’s been seven years since Charlie Puth’s single “See You Again” thrust him into the pop spotlight. While the pandemic cratered the touring business, Puth, like almost all musicians and performers, turned to social media to stay in the public eye. He used TikTok to reach out to fans, replacing some of the energy that came from live shows. Not only did his more than 19 million followers get some of his thirst traps, but they also learned a handful of lessons about music theory. Now, the New Jersey-born singer is ready to bare all with his third album, “Charlie.” How did Tik Tok transform your music career? It made me very open-minded to showing the process. I used to have this mentality of “I need to go away for an extended period of time and work on my music alone and not show anybody and give away the secrets.” But now I can give every secret away. It actually makes the songs more vibrant.
