Remembering the good times. Ellen DeGeneres shared another heartfelt tribute to her show’s late DJ, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, after his death.
“Right now what I want to do is remember all the love and laughter I had with tWitch. He brought so much joy to my life. I know he brought joy to yours too,” the comedian, 64, captioned a video shared via Instagram on Thursday, December 15. “I’m going to be sharing some of my favorite moments with him. If you want to you can also share yours. #ILovetWitch.”
The clip featured several moments from Boss’ tenure on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which he joined in 2014 as the Finding Dory star’s sidekick. When the long-running daytime show came to an end earlier this year, DeGeneres gave the freestyle dancer an emotional sendoff.
“Over a decade ago, I met someone who changed my life and our show,” the Emmy winner said in the snippet, which was included as part of her Thursday tribute. “And I’m talking about you, tWitch.”
The Ellen’s Game of Games host told Boss to sit near her on stage as she continued to gush over his influence. They exchanged a hug, and the So You Think You Can Dance alum was visibly overcome with emotion.
“I love you so much and it’s been an emotional week,” DeGeneres said. “It’s just a coincidence that your mom is here. … We put a little something together just to say how much we all love you here.”
As the montage continued, a producer asked the Louisiana native what message she wanted to send to her longtime colleague before their show’s finale, which aired in May. “I don’t want to say goodbye,” DeGeneres replied, reflecting on the pair’s shared love of dance. “Whenever he’s not here, for whatever reason, it’s just different. … He’s my pal.
