Say what you may about Ellen DeGeneres, but we can all agree that she's always tried to find the funny side in a situation, even if it's something that should be as mundane as mowing the lawn.

DeGeneres left the talk show scene in 2022 after allegations ran rampant about her running a toxic workplace, so when President Donald Trump was elected for a second term, it seemed the perfect time for the entertainer and her wife, Portia de Rossi, to look for greener pastures, namely in the U.K.

Instead of traveling a lot, the former talk show host has developed a hobby of flipping houses, which gives her different projects to work on, followed by a fresh location and "new perspective" to live in for a while.

She's already flipped more than 50 properties, and the latest is a beautiful property in the Cotswolds region of the British countryside, and the yard is made up of rough terrain—wide, rolling hills and vegetation that will challenge even a high-quality lawnmower.

But DeGeneres decided to give it her best try on a lark. And, thinking this new adventure might lead to some comedic moments, de Rossi decided to press that record button—and the results did not disappoint.

DeGeneres starts off mowing slowly on a large yellow riding lawnmower, sporting her new look of dark brunette hair.

But then the video cuts to a scene of DeGeneres and the lawnmower creeping back up one of the property's steep hills as a man attempts to push them back up. The incline proving too steep, the video cuts again, this time to both DeGeneres and the man pushing the lawnmower and de Rossi giggling in the background.

You can watch the video here:

Some fans were thoroughly entertained by the attempt.

It's unclear how much of DeGeneres and de Rossi's decision to move to the U.K. was based on the presidential election or what they will do when future candidates are sworn in, but it's clear for the time being that the pair are enjoying the fresh air, change in lifestyle, and of course, trying new things.

Meghan McCain Mocked For Seemingly Just Realizing That MAGA Wants Women To Stay Home And Raise Kids

Former The View co-host Meghan McCain was widely mocked after complaining about MAGA conservatives' "harsh views" about women who don't want children—prompting many to wonder if she's been paying any attention at all.

McCain's remarks come as conservatives increasingly encourage women, particularly younger women, to prioritize motherhood. Several women tied to the administration, including Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Katie Miller—wife of Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller—and Second Lady Usha Vance, have recently spoken publicly about their pregnancies.

Reverend Jesse Jackson’s iconic “I Am Somebody” declaration once again resonated with audiences of all ages when Sesame Street revisited a 1972 episode featuring the civil rights leader reciting the poem with young viewers.

He wears a purple, white, and black striped shirt and a gold medallion bearing a high-relief profile of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a tribute resting squarely over his heart.

RFK Jr. Posts Bonkers Video Working Out Shirtless In Jeans With Kid Rock—And The Internet Can't

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had people rolling their eyes after he shared his new "Rock Out Work Out" video promoting the Make America Healthy Again (MAGA) movement that features him and far-right singer Kid Rock working out shirtless and hanging out together.

At one point during the oddball video, the two men are shown drinking whole milk in a pool, a decision that follows the release of new federal dietary guidelines under the Trump administration that encourage consumption of full-fat dairy. Kennedy has even previously shared a video of himself drinking a glass of whole milk as a flex, footage that was amplified by the White House.
