The issue marked the first time DeGeneres formerly came out as gay, and the comedianopened up toTIMEin 2017to reflect on the groundbreaking cover.
When asked which was more difficult, the cover or coming out to her family, she replied that the cover was tougher.
“This. I mean, I don’t understand a fear of coming out to your friends and family. I’ve been really lucky,” she shared. “I have a really great family. I have parents who understand. My mother understands, now even more so. My father is supportive. My dad said the most hilarious thing when I told him what I was going to do on the show. He said, ‘You’re not going to go all flamboyant, are ya?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, Dad, I’m going to completely change. I’m going to start wearing leather vests. I’m going to get one of those haircuts that they all have.'”

Thank you very much for doing that. You put on the most amazing party. It’s just a party I’ll never forget. It was a lovely, lovely evening.”
