Ellen DeGeneres ‘misses’ late Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss on birthday

Ellen DeGeneres paid tribute to her show’s DJ, dancer, and co-executive producer, the late Stephen “tWitch” Boss, on his birthday.

“Happy birthday tWitch,” the 66-year-old host took to Instagram and wrote in the caption of a post on Sunday, September 29. “I miss you every day.”

The photo was taken when Ellen DeGeneres honoured Stephen “tWitch” Boss with a heartfelt sendoff as The Ellen DeGeneres Show concluded in 2022.

Boss, who became DeGeneres’ talk show DJ in 2014 after getting famous on So You Think You Can Dance season 4 and later got promoted to an executive producer, was found dead at the age of 40 at a Los Angeles hotel in December 2022.

DeGeneres took to Instagram at that time as well, too express the loss she felt.

“I’m heartbroken,” she wrote in the caption of a post alongside a heartfelt picture of her and Boss embracing each other tightly.

“tWitch was pure love and light. He was my family, and I loved him with all my heart. I will miss him. Please send your love and support to Allison and his beautiful children – Weslie, Maddox, and Zaia.”
