Chris Rock lit a match of debate following the unleashing of his live Netflix special ‘Selective Outrage.’
As reported, the comic finally seized the lucrative platform to offer his unbridled response to being slapped by Will Smith at last year’s Oscars.
Elsewhere, Rock also took aim at the likes of Elon Musk, Meghan Markle, and the King of Pop Michael Jackson.
The latter has been a routine target for the star, much to the fury of the legend’s loyal fanbase.
Now, MJ’s nephew Taj Jackson has weighed in – and he did not hold back.
Full story below…
Taking to Twitter, the 3T member and son of Tito Jackson, said:
“Chris Rock has used my family as punching bags for his entire career.
Yet I am supposed to feel bad for him getting slapped and humiliated on the Oscars.
After seeing a new clip of him attacking my dead uncle in the first minutes of his “Retaliation-I’m still relevant ”special, I have 3 things to say.
1. What did my family ever do to you to warrant these decades of harassment and your constant bullying disguise as jokes?
2. Just because you were bullied early on in life doesn’t give you the excuse to bully others now.
3. Thank you Will Smith.?
Suffice it to say, he said what he said! Do you agree? What are…
Is comedy going to get cancelled now too?
Comment Removed: Such Remarks Will Not Be Tolerated.
He is correct. Michael has always tried to stay above it all despite all the bullying & name calling he received even from the media yet folks like Chris & media will still push lies about Michael. This shows that even being humble and taking the high road, folks like Chris will still bully. So I agree, Will did what he had to do.
Comedy is bullying now??? LMAOOOOO this generation is full of p*****. MJ been comics gold for decades now. Just like R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, Epstein and the rest of the perverted p*********. Cry about it
Shalah lol
I am sorry but can someone tell me what is the punch line for pedophilia? R***? Molestation? Violence? So making fun of disabled people is funny? Deceased people are funny? As far as referencing the past women used to not have rights, slavery was legal, and humans use not have electricity but clearly as we grow and become more educated we make better choices. There’s nothing funny about belittling someone very small of them. I saw Chris Rock in person and he made fun of a heavy lady, and her husband became upset. It was uncomfortable and ackward for the rest of us to watch, it wasn’t funny. Eddie Murphy made jokes about others but never about something as serious as pedophlia or a disease. Chris Rock can keep telling jokes and keep getting the s*** slapped out of him. His brothers talked crap on t. vand did nothing, hisbodyguards allowed it as well, people are tired of Chris’s lame jokes. This is the same lame that got chase home every day clearly he hasn’t learned to shut up. We live in a different world Chris better rethinks his jokes or up his security.
Chris is doing fine. Still a comedic legend. Selling out shows. Got slapped and banked $20 million from Netflix. Only hoodboogers respond to WORDS with violence. Will has been trying to make amends with Chris behind the scenes and he aint having it lol. I wouldn’t either.
Everything isn’t comedy. When you have respect for someone, you know not to joke about things that add to the decades of pain and turmoil experienced by that person and their family. It’s not funny that proven lies about Michael continue to be perpetuated, because it opens the door to more false accusations from people seeking to destroy whomever and whatever they can. Chris will reap every dirty grain he sows.
Shut up crybaby pansy.
Darkies are so sensitive.
No ones off limits in comedy. Sorry Jackson family
Chris Rock came from an era were so called bullying was acceptable by the masses. The elders themselves payed top dollars to watch celebrities get roasted. So why get mad at Chris Rock??
Some of you older ppl are so FAKE nowadays, talking about bullying….when 30+ yrs ago bullying wasn’t even a topic of discussion.
It’s not 1993, it’s 2023. Get with the times and stop the whataboutism for once. Chris is WRONG
So Chris Rock is wrong for roasting ppl??
When everyone was roasting Will Smith on social media?? No one said anything about bullying. And this was happening recently.
Social media is far worse than Chris Rock sweetheart. Maybe we start deactivating Twitter accounts for so called bullying.
we should start*
Will Smith was wrong period. He’s 50+ yrs old, which means he was laughing himself when comedians like Chris Rock and Eddie Murphy were dishing some of their most brutal jokes.
Some may see bullying as comedy, some may see slapping as comedy…
Well go slap a random person for clicks and views and see what happens.
How do you know I already haven’t?
Because ur here online and NOT hooked up to medical equipment….
It’s never been ME hooked up to medical equipment, TT… We’ll just say THAT. You think with a mouth like this I don’t need the hands to back that s*** up? Foolish.
Exactly!
Your comments for example surpasses anything Chris Rock has stated but everyone has smoke for Chris Rock.
Make it make sense.
Our society is full of ppl who talk sh**. So I don’t understand the outrage.
I don’t understand the outrage about what Lana Del Rey said.
Now, Morgan Wallen said the n word so that’s a bit different but I still don’t understand the outrage.
I’m just playing fair…
Right!
Morgan said the N word and ppl are still buying his music. Clearly ppl feel his comments wasn’t that bad!
And none of you niccas slapped him BTW.
Ugh I just LOVE HIM! 😩🤤
And he didn’t aim it at anyone black. He said it about his white friend. At the end of the day, we ALL hear that word used every day. So even white people ARE going to use it. Especially as they are 70% of the Hip-Hop buying public where it’s “n**** this, n**** that.”
There are MANY parts of America where blacks AND whites say it to and about each other and no-one bats an eye… Because they all know there is no racism involved. The word has basically evolved into slang in working class areas for “man,” “friend,” etc etc.
Morgan used the word because his forefathers and relatives used it.
He didn’t discover the word because of Hip-Hip.
That’s your presumption. There are plenty of Hip-Hop references and influences in MANY of his songs, so he clearly grew up with and has a respect for it. How could he not? The charts is, and has been inundated with it now since the 80s. So it’s going to have some influence over everyone in the country, whether you like it and/or care to admit it or not.
Rapper Lil’ Boosie said he’s okay with his White fans using the N-word.
Comments like his…is the reason Chris Rock titled his show “selective outrage”.
There are many Black ppl who co-sign the N-word usage by Non-Blacks.
We’re all on the same piece of land. So we’re all going to be influenced the same and by the same. There is no escaping that. Don’t want a word used? Don’t use it yourself. Ban it altogether. Or expect anyone who grows up hearing it to grow up to say it too as part of their language just as any other word. The fact that it even has to be spelled out that way is ridiculous as it’s actually just basic psychology and logic. But you left-wing “woke” lunatics don’t go by psychology, science, facts etc, you go by emotional impulse. Which is why most of the world is in the mess it’s in right now. Because the world cannot be ran on emotional reaction.
“But I don’t like it!”
Well, some may hate that the sky usually appears blue. No amount of tears or outrage is going to change the fact that it’s still gonna.
The FACT is….there are plenty of WP who don’t listen to Hip-Hop and still use the word. So ur argument is FALSE.
Did you even READ what I said? It’s USED daily and heard regardless of Hip-Hop.
If you’re alluding to people who DO still unfortunately use it as a racist term, of course you’re correct. But not all people do, it’s just a word they’ve grown up hearing, is my point.
So we are both right, to a point.
If Non-BP can use the N-Word, then Chris Rock should be able to roast whoever the f*ck he want….
If Non-Blacks can say what they want…so can I.
I have ZERO filter/f*cks to give and that’s how I like it!!
I never said I didn’t agree that Chris Rock can roast whoever he wants. If people don’t like it, they can switch it off… I was simply making a point.
And same here, boo. No one is ever changing me.
Do you agree with Will Smith slapping Chris Rock because he roasted his wife… like she roasted him??
Everyone was roasting Will Smith, so he should have slapped a lot more ppl IMO.
I actually would have had more respect for him, if he slapped or punched many other ppl who came for him also. BUT he chose the person who wouldn’t hit back.
No, I don’t agree with Will slapping Chris, for the simple fact that I believe it made him look like a p**** and revealed him as a very WEAK individual.
For sure, he took it out on the one person he knew he could. That isn’t a man to me.
If you’re going to “defend your wife’s honor,” by all means, go ahead. But GO AHEAD FULL STEAM on EVERYBODY. Otherwise you’re just a weak p**** ass fool who can CONTROL when, where and who it comes out on.
Agree 💯
Can we all just take a second to talk about how FIRE Morgan Wallen’s new album is?! I’m 32 songs in out of 36 and DAMN! Not s single bad track! He’s done it AGAIN!!!! 👏🏽
*not a single bad track
I tried to give his music a listen but it’s trash. No wonder he doesn’t have any billboards hits or Grammys if you ask me 🙏👍
His album was #1 for 10 consecutive weeks and was the best-selling album of 2021, despite being “canceled.”
Sone industry tricks are easier to pull than others. Like I said he has no hits, no Grammys, no major awards and I see why not gonna lie. There’s nothing innovative going on in his music
He was canceled from being nominated for any awards for having the best-selling album of 2021… Because of those black tears.
My faves a flop uh well I have no choice but to deal
“I can either burn the bar down! Or I can take your number out my phone.
I can give you up RIGHT now! And never want you BACK long as I’m half-stoned!
If you want me to quit you, want me to get you, outta my heart and baby off my mind…
I hate to tell ya girl, but I’m only quittin one thang at a time!
AW YEAH, I HATE TO TELL YA!” 🎶
Morgan Wallen! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaas! 💃🏽
Trash ass flop ass music. You only like him because of the n word controversy. Ashy h**
I’m far too light to be ashy, and his music is CLASSIC upon release. But go awf and throw some lotion over your own skin to feel a little better before you do.
True Tea is a RACIST
Shayla is the one who co-signs Non-Blacks using the N-word darling.
Her words….Not mine!!!
I don’t co-sign it. I never said it was right, I said it was inevitable. There’s a difference.
I feel like a lot of the time that what I’m saying is actually either misinterpreted or misunderstood.
I believe you were saying if Non-Blacks are INFLUENCED by Hip-Hop culture, them using the N-word doesn’t make them racists.
Basically you share the same views as Lil’ Boosie who stated something similar.
Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing At A Time” is pacing for dominant opening week US sales and total consumption figures.
According to Hits Daily Double, the album is expected to sell 115K US copies by the end of the March 3-9 tracking period. With units from track sales and streams included, it will generate a massive 480K in total first-week US consumption.
Initial projections called for a bow in the 400-450K range; the revised figure confirms that the album has been holding up better than expected.
“One Thing At A Time” will easily debut at #1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales and 200 Charts as 2023’s biggest launch to date.
I believe much of his sales are political driven. When he openly used the N-word, this automatically aligned him with CONservatives.
You stated he was INFLUENCED by Hip-Hop culture which basically means integrating with a very “liberal” culture.
It seems CONservaties are okay with this since they are still supporting him.
Have you seen how many black people have been in support of him SINCE? It’s not just or mainly conservatives at all. He deserves a second chance as everyone else does.
I have no issues with ppl supporting him as long as the same ppl keep their mouth shut about who I choose to support and FORGIVE.
You forgive & support FORMER White racists and I forgive & support who the f*ck want.
Now I think that’s fair. 🙂
Honestly Chris Rock has NEVER been funny to me in the least bit..not sure why he sitting up there acting as if he vouches for black people when his girlfriend is wh–ya know what never mind..I’m still going to watch this special but I’m not going to rush to see it, I’ll get to it when I get to it..btw he wasn’t wrong with what he said about Alsina and Jada 💁 that heaux is the one who put it out there 💁; can’t blame Chris for that
He may have a white gf like most black men in Hollyweird, but his children are BLACK! And I don’t mean Mariah Carey black – but BLACK. His mama black, his daddy black, his siblings black, HE’S Black.
