It won’t happen, he’ll get a pass. Jamie Fox has already come to his rescue.

The shit you could do in the name of comedy in 2000 just don't fly in 2020. Not a Fallon fan myself but he is not a fucking racist.

I stopped watching all late night TV about 2016. They're all dickheads.

And the inevitable double standard

"WHITE CHICKS, a gender-bending, gut-busting comedy starring funnymen Shawn Wayans and Marlon Wayans. What happens when two fumbling FBI agents disguise themselves as mega-rich princesses"

"mega-rich princesses" that would be white girls

I don't click on links. What is this thread even about?

Shouldn't a thread stand on its own without having to go to some unknown web site?

From the original link:
quote:
Jimmy Fallon is trending for all the wrong reasons. Early Tuesday, Twitter held a “Jimmy Fallon is over party” after a clip of him wearing blackface in a 2000 Saturday Night Live sketch surfaced online. Twitter users were quick to slam the sketch, which features Fallon in full blackface as he impersonates Chris Rock, as “racist,” and many called for The Tonight Show host to be “canceled” outright. As one frustrated critic put it, “Jimmy Fallon? The only thing he should host is a parasite.” Ouch.

Fallon’s controversial sketch first aired in 2000, right in the middle of his six-year tenure on Saturday Night Live. The bit stars Fallon, in full blackface, impersonating Chris Rock on Regis Philbin’s (played by Darrell Hammond) late night show. Fallon-as-Rock laments that there are “not a lot of black folks” on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, likely because “black folks don’t want to answer questions.”

“Regis, do you think the only way to get a brother on the show is to name it, Who Wants $50 Cash and a Pair of Pumas?” asks Fallon.

While NBC has scrubbed the full sketch from the internet, intrepid Fallon critics were able to find a portion of the bit, and a 2019 YouTube video with the caption, “NBC fired Megyn Kelly for mentioning blackface. Jimmy Fallon performed on NBC in blackface” was uploaded to Twitter (Kelly was fired after she defended blackface on-air). Almost immediately, users began calling for Fallon to be canceled and fired from NBC.

Obvious PC BS. Shouldn't Chris Rock be the victim here? What does he have to say?

Don't watch the guy but it was 20 years ago. Give it a rest. Are people that bored that they have to hunt out outrage. Ted Danson did it when he was involved with Whoopi Goldberg. He survived.

People seem to think they have a lot more influence than they have.

So true..




Here's a list they can start one...outrage at the world !!!! Even Howard Stern did. He can be outraged at himself.

Why is blackface now a big deal? People have been doing it for years. And wasn’t there a movie called White chicks with 2 black guys painted white? Who cares????

What about Kimmel when he did the Man Show? He did Charles Barkley in blackface and a ton of sexist stuff....

I'm pretty sure he did it since on his current show. Here he is doing Karl Malone.
This is so freakin stupid. Comedians rousted for crap they did decades ago.

Who's next I wonder, Robert Downey Jr.?
