The place for laughs, joy, stars, surprises, and everything Ellen.
She gave him his flowers while he was alive! What a beautiful tribute and true love for a friend ❤️
Yes she did. That was amazing. That’s something we need to do more often to each other.
Amen!
Irene Marrero-Burgos, I agree yes she did💔💔🥲🥲
Yes 💯
Beautifully said Irene.
Rewatching this today hits very different. Seems like Ellen knew what he was going through so she wanted to remind him how much he’s loved. I never met him and I’ve been crying for 3 hours and I’m not stopping anytime soon. Can’t imagine how people closer to him are going through
Love you and my God look after your family. Fly. Thanks Ellen for all the love you have given him. Rest my son you will always be remembered.
tWitch new too much about what goes on behind the scenes
🫂 sis
The news made me very sad. No matter what his smilng face always allowed me to smile even when I was not having a great day. Thru that beautiful smile he had was sadness we never noticed. I agree with others that Ellen knew his struggles and I am sure she tried to help in ways we don't know. Some said it was financial problems. I don't think so he was paid a million last 2 seasons and 500k at the begining. I also believe if that was the case and Ellen knew she would have helped him out
I've thought of him, often,too... feel so sad for those close to him; would've enjoyed meeting him....only God knows us so well as to know what was on his mind and in his heart the moment he pulled that trigger
I’ve watched this several times & I can’t help but feel the show was his safe space, his outlet & when it ended he was struggling to find a new space. RIP tWitch You are missed & will be thought of often & fondly.
That’s what I’ve been thinking too. He was happy and secure right where he was 😓💔
It hurts!! I just don’t want to believe it💔💔😭😭
Even before seeing this tribute, I was feeling the same way. The Ellen Show made kept him going. I know he had other projects in the works, but it was definitely something special about their friendship. RIP
He got lost after the show went off the air
I think she knew
Grown man with my own mental struggles, I just watched this crying my eyes out for this man. Never met him but I feel his fight. Your life and positive attitude towards everything has changed me as a man just watching. I'll never ever forget you twitch. Rest now my friend
Stay strong!! You are not alone! ❤️
Keep fighting
If you feel like hurting yourself please tell someone you love. Reach out and do not give up!
Never give up. Love and hugs!
Please do not give up.. Reach out even to strangers like me. Do not end it. There will be lights at the end of the tunnel❤
I feel like Ellen maybe knew about his struggles, she was almost crying throughout the tribute she made, saying I don't want to say goodbye, he's not going to be out of my life, he's always a part of my life and repeatedly reminding him that he is loved. Gosh this is heart breaking, people usually give tributes to people that have passed, but Ellen felt the need to do this before he left this world. She really felt for him, and really wanted him to stay in this world. Bless his soul!
This was very well said.
That's what I was thinking. She obviously knew he was struggling and wanted to let him know he is appreciated and loved. I know people have said that Ellen isn't the best, but I can't deny the kindness she has shown to him here. I'm glad she let him know that he is loved. RIP ❤🕊
If she knew, and didn't get him help, then as far as I'm concerned, she's a murderer
@@apollomommy7364 🤣 oh shut up
@@apollomommy7364 yes hush! 😆
“He’s never going to be out of my life” hit hard today. All love to him. Rest in power
RIP twitch you deserve all the love and happiness hope you in a better place now
Very sad! He truly was a BEAUTIFUL Soul. He still is ❤
Amen. ☁️🎺👼💒🙏🌹.i hope he is in a better place.
No better place for those who commit suicide. It’s sad man
@@sindanonegongo1199 nobody knows that
@@quanda4516 bro the bible is clear on this topic
One of the sweetest tributes I've ever seen. Tears of happiness. "You're a fake DJ, but you're a real good man." 💕🤗👏🎧
Bro it made me laugh🤣🤣
"You're a fake DJ but a real good man" 😂😂 5:46
I'm sorry 😂😂
Lol ❤
😂😂😂😂
Watching this hits differently now. Just goes to show you NEVER know what someone is going through. I’m sending so much love to everyone who knew Twitch and sending love to everyone that is struggling.
perfectly said.🤍
Ellen isn't innocent
Beautiful and thank you
Well sayed and thank you,i hope everyone who is in the dark find the light and happiness in life ❤❤❤
That isn't a friendship, that's family. It's going to be so hard to say goodbye to this show 😭💔
AGREE
yes! he is amazing and lovely
I agree. I wish I had a family like that.
The most beautiful thing I've watched in a very long time! Love them now that's family!!!🥰❤️
Yes indeed❤️
This one really hurts. He was one of my favorite things about the Ellen show. Rest in paradise, tWitch. We will love and miss you forever.
The only thing
She changed his life, she gave him a platform to perform in front of all America, who does that for a friend. A real friend. Thanks Ellen.
I am completely devestated and shocked. He was a positive light in this world. It really goes to show we have no idea what people are struggling with. Please get help when you can. RIP Twitch! 😭💔
Devastated? You didn't even know the dude. Go get some mental health help
@@babyrakes I may not have known the guy but he was a positive light in this world and knowing him from TV is as if it was real life
Yes people can act happy, but are broken on the inside...very sad that he lost the fight :(
Liaaaaaar
Jesus is real help in the time of trouble
Just read the devastating news about your passing, tWitch. You were a gem and this tribute exemplifies that. I pray your soul is at peace. My heartfelt sympathies and condolences to those who knew and loved you.
He is proof that having a big heart and loving personality can take you a long way. I remember when he was on sytycd, he wasn't the best dancer on the show. But because everyone loved who he was and his loving energy, everyone wanted to work and be his friend. He was such a bright light in this dark world. He will be missed and may his family get through this tough time.
It's like Ellen knew a little more of what he may not have felt openly comfortable to disclose and that he was near giving up. What a warm reminder to his lovely contributions before the end of his battle. May he sleep peacefullly 🙏🏾
Hollywood is wicked. Run by satanists. I think he refused to play their filthy games, so they killed him.
I am shocked and in disbelief. This is unreal, and so, so incredibly painful. I can't even imagine what the people closest to him are going through right now. I send prayers to his children, to his wife and family, and to all of his loved ones. I send my love to Ellen and everyone affected by his passing. This can't be real. My heart is heavy, and with every person going through this struggle right now. May you be comforted and blanketed in peace.
Beautifully said and written. Your words are perfect - straight from the heart!
@@bernadettebailey5370 Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️...and I'm sorry we're here...feeling this profound loss.
Thank you. I lost my mom to suicide 2 years ago next month, and I’m 17 now. The struggle is the same as it was the second I was told. I am praying for his children extra hard tonight, because they do not deserve that pain.
She did it.
@@WeirdBarbiesBoyfriend 100% feeling this. It's always so sad to hear of a celebrity passing away, but this is just different. So very unexpected, so tragic, so deeply devastating, and and it's rocked me to the core. It's so upsetting to me that a soul that shone so brightly has been extinguished.
I don't have even a fraction of his light to offer the world, and although I've been homebound from depression for several months now and my light is very dim at the moment, I hope I can manage to gather the strength to one day shine brightly again.
Remember, DEPRESSION LIES. Don't believe the lies. Stay Earthside. 💗
If you're struggling, there are so many resources out there! People who WANT to help. Also, Jenny Lawson's books have been a legitimate and literal lifesaver for me. She KNOWS how we feel and she REALLY gets us. (Available wherever you buy books. Be prepared to laugh, cry, then cry more, because you're laughing too hard.)
I hope Twitch is at peace, and my sincerest condolences, prayers, vibes, comfort and so so much love to his wife and beautiful children. He will be so dearly and sincerely missed. 💗
That’s a beautiful tribute, I’m glad he was able to see it before he passed.
Beautiful. I hope there is a tribute like this to Average Andy as well who is not average but excellent and wonderful.
Best comment on here all week.....agree 💯💕💕💕💕
I hope it, too. But I don't think he gets one. He will be forgotten.
Yessss. Andy deserves one too
YES!
So true!
I'm so glad he was alive to experience this tribute. I can't be in his head, but I'm sorry he felt he had to go. Rest in peace.
Rewatching this today is heartbreaking to say the least. tWitch was such a beam of light and love and to know how much he must have been suffering on the inside is unfathomable because you just never would have guessed it. May his passing help continue to raise awareness for Mental Illness and help those who are also suffering in their own silence. Rest in Peace - I am sure you're up there dancing with the best of them. Love & Light to his beautiful family.
Well said.
🙏🏼🌹🦋🕊️
This video hits different knowing that he is no longer with us, it's hard not to cry watching this. Rest in perfection 💖
Simply beautiful! Ellen's choice of picture for that tribute is priceless. Not everyone goes through life doing something they love, and tWitch shows that appreciation through his emotions. He was given the chance to be himself and make people happy doing what he does best. Sending love to both. 🥰😍💖

@Asmodeus Guy What's the seriously about? Let me guess... you're a hater.
Ellen understood…
Cherish those you love today.
Tomorrow is not promised.
He must’ve really been secretly hurting. You never know what people are going through. Be kind to each other.
Absolutely! That's the conversation people need to be having. Real talk!
If only Ellen actually did what she preached. Hypocrite.
Unfortunately reminds me of Robin Williams. Both men could wear a smile and keep everyone around them happy. Everyone has a silent fight, some share what they're going through and some would rather go thru it than share. I too am guilty of the latter. Family is my focus, times change wounds heal so my Dad says unfortunately I don't agree. While the wound heals you will always remember the cut.
His wife was cheating on him with one of his friends
@@sevenmoore9208 How do you know that?
This was a beautiful tribute. They will both be missed.
Yes,they will 💖🌹
Na
Nope
CONGRATULATIONS
Rip twitch 🙏
I can't even get through the first two minutes of watching this. Utter heartbreak and disbelief. Just two days ago I randomly watched his TikToks, dancing with his mom, beautiful family, thinking to myself...wow...everyone in the world is tired...but not this guy, this guy is pure LOVE. Can't even bring myself to say "was". Rest easy Boss!!!
Same Here, It was reported he committed suicide, horrible😭
My heart is complete this is one of the sweetest moments ever 😭😭😭❤️
Xavier you are everywhere 😂😭
Xavier.... looking for memes🥴🤣🤣🤣
aren't you the meme guy on the gram...nice seeing you here 🌝
Xavier you are everywhere 🤣🤣💀⚰️
@@ruthcarladore2111 true l am in shock
This made me cry like a little baby. What a beautiful and special friendship. I loved this show so much 😭
When she gave him that pic, I felt that in my soul😭
@@MsRenee-tp9vb omg me too…I couldn’t handle it. Wayyy too sweet! 🥺😭💗
😭😭😭 I don't know what to say
I'm just seeing this now. The immediate look on his face just started me
Sameee omg.🥺🥺 beautifull
Mad love to Ellen for giving Twitch his flowers. Life is too short. Remember to celebrate others everyday. 🕊
thank God he got his flowers and knew he was loved
There's only a few Hollywood deaths that really made me sad and this is one of them 😥 I've always liked Twitch he always seemed so chill and down to earth and was always respectful. May he RIP and prayers for his love ones 🙏 I hope So You Think You Can Dance give him some type of tribute he deserves it.
@@mc-ww8ic it’s always been like this in hollywood. A LOOOT of sacrifices and murders covered up as suicides
I can't even imagine how painful it is for Ellen to loose someone like tWitch. He was his work husband. He was family to her. Giving him his own tribute during the farewell episode made it even more special. I was crying the whole time while watching this.
Rest well tWitch. Bless your soul man. We, the fans will miss you.
I'm tearing up on each and everyone of these last episodes! Can't believe it's been 19 years and i don't feel tired of this show at all. I feel so lucky to have gotten so much joy from watching this show. Thank you all.
Exactly ...its so sad we wont see the beautiful thing's this show has done for just everyday normal people.....where do we find that now? Thank you To everyone From This Show Who Shined A Light On So Many Special People We May Never Had Known About!!!
I am tearing too
@@PoacherOnline same here🤧
@@PoacherOnline It just comes to show how much we value this show. It's good that we can come together in the comment section and show our gratitude towards this show. Ellen and her team won't read each and every one of our comments, but they can see the amount of feedback and hopefully that brings them some joy in return.
@@ol1163 It just comes to show how much we value this show.🤧
say what you want about ellen but i love her. i love her for appreciating, supporting and showing love to people while they're alive.
Lol
I don’t understand how this could happen. He was so loved and this was such a beautiful tribute to him by Ellen. I can’t imagine what his wife is going through and his children I am devastated.
In utter shock. Prayers to his wife and kids, rest of his family and friends. RIP Twitch, you brought joy to so many, you will be greatly missed.
"Changes" are constant, and accepting "change" is so difficult for me personally. And, I truly understand for you Ellen.
Twitch, "thank you" is not enough of an honorary verbal recognition for all you have contributed to Ellen's life. Peace be with both of you.
Hello 👋
Good evening Chey
How are you doing today?
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU
Watching this made me cry. I can’t even imagine the pain he was going through. The news of his passing is so sad. I’m truly at a loss for words. RIP Twitch! You will never be forgotten. Thank you for sharing your gifts and talents with us.
Rest in heaven to a legend, tWitch. You will be missed more than you know and have paved the way for dancers to access all types of different spaces. You were also such an advocate to the black community and we are so honored to have known you, your spirit, and your gift of dance. See you on the other side.
What a beautiful tribute to him while he was still alive. My condolences to Ellen and her crew as well as his family
As a person who grew up a competitive dancer my entire life (I’m only 19), I went to conventions and grew took classes from twitch. This man is one of the reasons I feel in love with hip hop and it is not one of if not my favorite style. He was an icon to the dance world and an inspiration to so many, may he Rest In Peace 🕊💔
He always seemed so joyous. Wow. God bless his soul.
JUST LOVE SEEING TWITCH AND ELLEN TOGETHER, THEY SHOW THE WORLD THAT, NO MATTER YOUR SKIN COLOR OR WHO YOU CHOOSE TO BE WITH, LOVE CONQUERS ALL!!!
Such a mix of emotions watching this right now. He was a beautiful person. His smile,energy and heart...contagious. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and everyone who loved him. This is a difficult goodbye. 🖤
My heart is complete this is one of the sweetest moments ever 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’ve loved that guy since he auditioned for SYTYCD. He is the kind you feel like you know, even though you never meet.
Waking up to the news of his passing has me absolutely shook, gut wrenched and heartbroken. Truly unbelievable. Mental health is never easy. It hurts to know he was in such incredible pain. I hope he is at peace and dancing up in heaven. Such a beautiful soul with an incredible light and such infectious energy. Watching you and your love story all these years really brought me such a joy. This loss really hurts. I pray for Allison, his kids and all his loved ones. He will be deeply missed and always loved. This one is very tough. Sending love, strength and light to all who are needing it, especially today 🙏❤️
as somebody who's struggled with suicidal thoughts for a long time, i understand how hopeless you can feel and how easy it is to let the thoughts win. a lonely silent battle that's almost impossible to fight. rest in peace
He really touched many people. And I didnt know how much we love him until today. We took him for granted. See how many people, celebrities and audiences alike, both paying tributes and rewatching his performances to memory him. Thank you, tWitch , for making the world a better place. Please rest and be happy at the place you are heading to.
I’ve been a fan of tWitch since he was on SYTYCD. Him and Kherington as a pair were my absolute fav. The news about his passing is shocking and devastating. I literally just saw his post on Intagram a few days ago…thank you for all the good memories you’ve created with your talent. Rest in peace, Stephen.
I loved the addition of tWitch to the show. The man has smooth moves & when he dances with the audience he does it in a way as to not make fun of them if they are rythmically challenged. Awesome guy & wish him well🕺🏿✌️
Rhythmically challenged is the funniest way of putting it I've heard in a while.
"U are a fake DJ, but a Real Good Man, " just priceless.😍
This is definitely going to be an emotional ending
AGREE
Yeasss it’s going to real emotional 🥲
@@kylewallace3901 brace yourself I bet Ellen is going to be teary eyed
@@kylewallace3901 AGREE
This is the only show I've wanted to see live and never had the chance.
Same.
Same
Same
Same
Ditto
The joy and pain all intertwined is just so overwhelming 😭
I remember when Ellen & Twitch did that dance together & when he got waxed. Twitch seems like such a great guy. That picture is a prefect gift.
I am just in shock. You never know what goes on deep inside somebody’s head and heart. RIP - my heart goes out to his family.
What can I say, anyone who watched Ellen's show in a sense knew tWitch, his joy in being on the show, his joy of life. It breaks my heart that he couldn't find a way thru and out of whatever it was that made him feel that he had to leave us in this way. Stephen tWitch Boss you brought another point of light to my life and I will always be thankful for that and hold all the fun memories of watching you and Ellen together. RIP Sir tWitch-alot.
Honestly, he is the only reason I watched her show. He brought a certain vibe to it. ❤️
The world 🌎 will miss you, Ellen! You changed people’s lives every day. Love you
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU
Tomorrow is a day we all thought would never arrive, This show has embodied kindness towards those that needed it most. From those suffering after disasters, to creating or giving donations to help others in need ( like the wildlife fund or Ukraine), and lastly, it’s helped us see how lucky people like Ellen exist on this planet. Thank you for putting the generous in DeGeneres, Ellen! Be kind to one another!
Most of us knew it was coming after all that stuff about her came out. She was entertaining tho and will definitely miss her show.
Not!
@@aubriellemorgan How is inviting female celebs on your show so you can grope them , and use double entendras during non prime time, entertainment. Good riddance.
@@SHREDTILLDEAD get back down to your mom's basement where you belong.
Great reply
Incredibly heartbroken and devastated by this. tWitch was so very talented and brought enjoyment just to watch him dance. I'm sure he has inspired many around the world with the gift of him being himself, having that infectious smile and energy. An awesome dancer and choreographer he was. Prayers for his family.
I've loved Twitch since SYTYCD and have loved Ellen since her sitcom Ellen. These two together? AMAZING. I'm going to miss them both, terribly.
Totally made me cry! He really was a special person. it's so sad that he was in a dark place yet continued to shine a light on others
This really hurts because he has so much life and laughter that's genuinely honest, but the reality is WE don't know what a person is struggling with inside and I feel for his Mom, wife, children and fans across the world 😢. I lost my eldest son 22 yrs young earlier this year and I hurt everyday....My heart breaks for those close to him. Wow.... so sad
I’m so sorry for the loss of your son…
So sorry for your loss
@@talaibabao7302 I appreciate you for that humbly. Thank you
@@dennelclayton5188 I'm very appreciative of you saying that. It still hasn't sank in yet
tWitch was a light in every room he walked in. He changed lives. Rest in power
I’ve been crying all week 🥺 19 years of my life and then when RUclips became a thing I started watching even more 😍 I never missed an episode. I love what you’ve done for people and will continue to do for people.
I hope we get to see you on something else real soon and this isn’t goodbye forever
Y they need to end this show?
This made me cry… Glad She gave him his flowers while he was there
God puts people in your life when you least expect it. so glad to see how far twitch and ellen have come. i pray for a lifelong friendship full of love and memories! 🎉
Hope she convert to be a believer
@@Adam-qu5uk naaah she fine
Beautiful. I love the love shared between you and Twitch. So emotional.
I remember watching this and seeing the true connection they both had. Totally unexpected and devastating situation. I have been following tWitch since day 1 on SYTYCD. The world lost one of the great ones this week. I hope he is resting in peace and light and dancing the rest of his days away! RIP Stephen Boss
Literally the amount of “change” from kindness this woman has given to countless people… I honestly can’t even finish my thought… i love her heart.
I loveee how people like Jeannie and twitch went from being guests to Staff! Their lives literally changed ♡
Exactly, as well as one of her writers whom she gave a job 19 years ago. This show is indeed one big family.
I cannot even watch this without sobbing. So incredibly heartbroken , what an amazing soul
I love that she is taking these last few episodes to honor her crew. So beautiful ❤️
Hello Raaya
Not honor! To clear her name!
Hi Markar!
@@raayaharris1939 I am cascading for your smile, where are you from if I may ask?
He seemed so joyful, this is a reminder that anyone can be hiding despair
😭😭😭 She gave him his flowers beforehand. The love shown. The tears of appreciation. R.i.paradise Twitch
I am so glad he was here to hear this and be touched by it. Tell how you love them when they are still here. Rest In Peace❤🙏🏽
It s so nice to see best friends love each other as family. It's a good thing. Keep inspiring
This whole video takes on a whole different meaning now. I loved that she did this back then and I am so appreciative of it now. ❤
She gave him 💐! This sucks!! I feel I'm mourning a death of a family 👪 member! 💔
Thanks to the Ellen show I was able to get through 7 of the worse years of my life. Her show made me laugh and smile when I needed it the most. Thank you Ellen for all these wonderful years and for all the kindness you spread to those that needed it. Thank you so much and we will always Love you. 😘🥰
i am still at a loss for words and shocked. it breaks my heart. we truly never know a person's inner struggles. he was so loved and full of energy and life. Ellen's tribute was heartwarming and so special. that is not just love of a co worker that was sharing her love for a family member. he was part of her family. my heart goes out to his family and friends.
So sorry that tWitch was unable to let go of his inner pain❤ He brought so much joy the viewers and I'm sure all his family which includes Ellen and the staff. I pray his wife, children and all family members find peace and comfort during this time and beyond. Never forget his smile and be kind!
This hits harder now than it did months ago. Thinking about Twitch’s family and friends at this dreadful time. Rest easy Twitch. 🕊
This is heart wrenching!! The one consistent thing I remembered about the show, was the bond shared by the two❤ RIP sweet soul! We will miss you
Ellen clearly knew he was going through something. That gentle kiss and embrace was very sweet. It’s so sad that this man lost his life to depression. No only did he lose his life, but we lost a beautiful talent.
He was such a happy and joyful spirit literally those who are the most happiest and funny are always the saddest
I'm crying so much right now, their friendship is beautiful.
I'm still in shock. This man was genuinely kind. All I can say is, you just never know what someone is going through. Take your rest sir...
Thanks Helen / Twitch and the entire team for all the JOY and LOVE that you show the world. Thanks and BLESSINGS to ALL.
He was my favorite on So You Think You Can Dance and I was sooooooo happy to see him on Ellen he has a wonderful story and watching his journey is sooooooo amazing!
Ellen / my heart goes out to you as I rewatch this amazing episode knowing that Twitch is no longer physically with us! You two definitely brought such JOY to many! It is evident that your friendship and relationship was truly authentic. May he rest in peace and sending prayers to his loved ones! 💕🙏🏻💙
When friends become family....this tribute was so beautiful and I'm not crying by the way🥺❤️❤️
😭 So Beautiful! Love is love & it sees no colour. I hope Twitch will have his own show. I will miss the both of them together.
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU
We miss you Twitch ❤️
This made me cry 😭 Twitch seems like such an amazing person.
Love their connection, there will never be another Ellen, Love you both❤️🥰
The fact that she did this before he passed away, he was so loved by her and everyone. Like if she knew he needed to hear how much he was loved
Such a beautiful tribute and memory. He will be remembered by everyone always. ❤
Reminds people To be kind to each other don't wait till the person's passes to show how much you care for them.
Some people don't see the light til it's too late
As soon as I clicked on it I started sobbing 😭
This is THE dynamic duo I don’t ever wanna see end. I think this is what I’ll miss the most about this show. 💙
