Celebrities caught being racist

Quite a few and a few new additions this year. I might right a book hmmm



1. 'Kramer' from Seinfield recently lost his temper and repeatedly called an audience member the N word at his comedy show

2. Amy Winehouse got wasted and sang a very racist song that dehumanised black, South Asian, East Asian and Central Asian People

3. Cheryl Tweedy from British pop girl band Girls Aloud racially abused a Nigerian toilet attendant in a London night Club

4. Mel Gibson blamed Jewish people for all the wars and misery on earth

I bet I can think of more.. smile

Wasn't that proven to be an urban myth?

1) Didn't NWA say some terribly disparaging words about Koreans once. It was marketed, sold, and I don't recall the record label ever apologizing. I was stunned people were on some talk show (I think it was either Geraldo or Oprah) defending their xenophobic stance.



2) Merle Haggart sang a song using the the N-word about a guy that discovers his girlfriend had slept with a black guy. It was a popular redneck "joke" song in my first high school growing up. disbelief


3) Axel Rose from guns and roses sang a blue collar, "common man's" song and used the N-word. the song was called "one in a million". The song also has a harshly xenophobic "Immagrants and f@ggots, they make no sense to me..They come to our country and think they'll do as they please. Like start some mini-iRan, or spread some fucking disease...".. Regretful lyrics since the song is so good.


A Couple of things that are not racist but I really disliked:

1) Katt Williams standups always involve frequent use of the n-word. Even in context, he uses it so liberally, it makes me cringe. I understood the point he made in his attack on Micheal Jackson when he said, "Fuck Micheal. He forgot that he was a n@gga. He forgot that he was a n@gga. He forgot that he was a n@gga." Although it's still terribly distasteful, I sort of understood the power of what he was saying in that context. In general, I just don't understand why he'd want to use the word at all.

2) Up until the Larry Graham years, Prince's frequent use of hot love interests opposite him in music videos and movies never showed a black woman. It was always latino or white. The added insult in Under the Cherry Moon was that the only black woman that the movie even implied had slept with Christopher Tracey, was the scary old "Christapha, ha ha ha ha ha ha" woman that causes him to run screaming.

Icecube when he went solo, not NWA. The song was Black Korea.

Busta Rhymes has a new single out that was called "Arab Money".... he didn't know it was insulting so after profusely apologizing to the Middle Eastern community on a radio show he said he would nename the single. It is now called Addab('s) Money or something like that. neutral

All of my Jewish friends find that Borat song hysterical...I guess sometimes you have to laugh at things rather than get upset and pull the race card on it. It also depends how it's being projected. shrug

I do agree with Imago on the One in a Million song by GNR...ruined a great song with those lyrics.

Why do some people just blow off racist statements by Michael Jackson, Public Enemy, Jesse Jackson, Sharpton and Farrakhan? shrug

OMG falloff


The “Simple Life��? star, who recently reunited with her black former best friend, Nicole Richie, steps to the camera again at about 3:55 to vent about a run-in with a woman at the party, whom she describes as a “f*ckin’ hoodlum, broke, poor bitch from like, Compton – public school bitch.��?

I too find it funny. The guy who plays Borat is Jewish. We're just very comfortable at laughing at ourselves, especially when it comes to old myths about us (big noses, long pointy ears, can smell money and so on).
