US vs Ghana match: Ellen DeGeneres' ignorant tweet
For those who didn't watch the match, the US scored the opening goal 32 seconds into the game, making it the 5th fastest goal in World Cup history. Talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres then tweeted that it took her longer to look up where Ghana is. So she's never heard of Ghana before?
Not because she is Ellen makes her that intelligent. She too can be dumb. I guess every black African is from Nigeria then. The only popular nation in Africa.
SHE WAS ONLY JOKING LINDA. DON'T HATE ABEG. IS IT HER FAULT THAT THESE WEST AFRICAN TEAMS ARE JUST USELESS??? ESPECIALLY THE CONFUSED KESHI AND SOME OF THE PUNKS HE CALLS PLAYERS.
Linda, she didnt mean that she does not know where Ghana is. She only meant it took her longer time to decipher what side of the pitch the Ghananians were playing...it does happen to me too sometimes.
Linda u need to be more careful with your posts, i dont think that was what she meant oooooo, i feel its more like it took her longer to see from which side to which side of the field Ghana is playing from ni....... regards dear
Kinibigdeal?.. we Nigerians (Africans) simply think too much of ourselves. She might knw its in Africa but where in Africa is another thing. Calling her ignorant or her statement ignorant for that matter makes u sound very shallow. And by the way.. .. what reasons really has anyone got to bother where some self inflicted backward nations of the world are? (Except ofcourse for the wrong reasons like playing horribly in the world cup or politisizing kidnapping of kids)
Linda, if given a world map, hw many counties can u confidently identify their location. And not just their continent
P.s: I think you comments these days are begining to lack dept. Common!!! - (frm d comment on indecent dressing - as if even guys are not disrespected if dressed in tatars to that of JayZ - being a celebrity comes with expectations frm pple) #nuffsaid
Tot u wr vast dis woman/man bcos of ur kind of profession...ok..its obv u don't make friends wt africans u subject to just ur America..ait keep it up!now u know ghana!
And soon a lot of ignorant Nigerians will see these Americans as role models...Most of them are dumb, uneducated individuals with American accent; but I guess most Nigerians think that anyone with America accent is educated and knowledgeable
Nah, it was just ill humour. Definitely, a lady of her position should know about Ghana. She just tryina to say it's not a popular country. And this is very true (if you've been around the world)
Linda please, don't be silly. Ghana has played USA several times, I am sure Ellen Degeneres knows where Ghana is. Isn't it obvious that she was just supporting her country's victory? It seems to me like you are the ignorant one.
Am not surprised. Most Americans think Africa is a country, may be Ellen is one of them. She probably thiinks Ghana will be one of the villages in Africa!
So? She may actually not know where Ghana is but its the same way a Ghanian in a kumasi village doesn't know about the U.S. But she dumb sha #NICKYONIKAN
It was more than a game since Ghana beat USA in 2 previous World Cup meetings.. Its personal. Plus thats not the fastest goal in world cup history.. Hakan sukur scored 11 seconds into the game in 2002. But his goal is the fifth fastest in World Cup history.
Linda shut up. Na d whole country wey dey d world u know? She was jst jokin jare. Dis is y dey call us black monkeys. Linda do urself a favor n go get a sense of humor. Ellen me likey!!! Gossip for life na wetin u be. C as u dey twist her word against her. I no blame pple wey say u b lesbian if na like dat den.
Its just a joke, please lets move on.We africans are just always ready to pounce on any non favpourable comments made about us, whaich makes it even more pleasurable for them to say all this stuff. letas borrow some sense of humour and not let it affect us so much.
A study carried out in 2010 examining 160 countries concludes America now has the highest percentage of stupid people in all 10 internationally recognized categories of stupidity. Many of them are ignorant as well, just like Ellen DeGeneres.
Lin..lin this is very funny .. Because if you watch the world cup matches regularly there is a commercial they show almost after every matches or at half time.. If you watch that commercial then you will understand were DeGeneres belong.. (The ignorant) indeed...! So she has never heard of Ghana? d' gold coast.. If so then she is not in this world...shmmm yeye dey smell..
Linda, most Americans are uneducated and not exposed. Unfortunately many of us think more of them. They have a stable economy so with blue collar jobs they still live well so they don't really celebrate education like we do. They re not exposed and many of them never see airport before or watch stations of other nations
I was disappointed in Helen anyway. Went looking for the tweet this morning so I could drop my 2 cents for her. But couldn't find it. Glad u got a screen shot before she deleted the tweet.
americans feel the live on another planet....its a good thing.....when Nigeria gets to that level...it will take me 5billion light years to remember America ever existed...Life na stage, me na actor, america go everly dey obsolete
yes i agree its an ignorant tweet but she could be saying the truth i say a 73 years old woman in Bolton and she told me she's never been to London all her life so its possible
yet we africans,..blacks wont let whites b on dia own......always clinging to dem......just like wiz kid postin pix of him and bieber...........RUBBISH
She just displayed how ignorant most americans are.A lot believe the world started and ends in america. Even George Bush once called africa a country so what do u expect.All they do is watch TV.Too dmb to know that perhaps some of the gold she has is from Ghana or the chocolate she had earlier in the day may have come from cocoa from ghana.
Ellen should do her research or hire someone to. Ghana would have polvarised USA. They didn't want to disgrace them too much so America won't stop sending them aid. hehehe
Ok. Being objective, for someone who doesn't know where Ghana is, it would actually take longer than 32seconds to find. That being said, I'm sure Ellen knows where Ghana is and was just joking. Linda relax, not everything is an insult to africans.
SHE IS NOT DUMB. SHE WAS ONLY JOKING. PLEASE, DON'T HATE. IT'S NOT HER FAULT THAT THE WEST AFRICAN TEAMS, ESPECIALLY NIGERIA GOT A CONFUSED COACH AND SOME STUPID PLAYERS
I think both of you are right. The goal ranks 5th in world cup history and the fastest in US world cup history. My understanding of her comment is that the goal is the fastest the US has scored since they started going to the world cup
subtle dig. I'm sure she has heard of Ghana. She certainly has. Just may not know its in West Africa. i.e. I know Bosnia, but I admit I'm ignorant as to where they are in the world exactly.
Americans are in reality, very ignorant. Most of them have no idea what happens outside their country. However, if she has been a soccer follower, she would have known that the same Ghana beat them in their last two appearances.
c'mon people! it was just a joke with a witty punch-line. she would have made the same joke if the match was between USA vs USA. 'lighten up yo self'. Sometimes, name calling could mean that one lack wits...- just saying
First of I need to understand what is bringing up the gay talk, who gives a fuck, secondly its Linda's opinion! If she feels the lady was being disrespectful that doesn't mean y'all have to insult her. If you don't like what you see dont read, common sense guys. We all have different views on what is funny or not. And for the others yeah keep insulting Nigeria if that makes y'all sleep at night. Rubbish
So what if she doesn't know where Ghana is? What's the big deal? There are thousands of people all over the world who don't know where many countries are, European, African or any other continent! Why take it personal? Do you think that Ghana is Nigeria that they hear negative press about every day on the news? Ellen is a fantastic woman with a great heart!
I believe that Ellen (just like most Americans) do not know ehre Ghana is. Most Americans do not know what's outside their backyard. Most Americans do not even know all the states in the US. This is a fact (hard to believe but true). The typical American is just too proud/busy to learn of any place else besides the US.
She is just been funny as usual.. Nigerians can be stupid including u Linda.. get a life n all those of you saying shit cos she is gay.. check yourself well.. some of you.. your parents r Gay.. them just dey do m dey hide..

Not because she is Ellen makes her that intelligent. She too can be dumb. I guess every black African is from Nigeria then. The only popular nation in Africa.
Just in case you didn't know, Ellen is a comedian. This tweet should be taken lightly.
She's just tryna be funny
SHE WAS ONLY JOKING LINDA. DON'T HATE ABEG. IS IT HER FAULT THAT THESE WEST AFRICAN TEAMS ARE JUST USELESS??? ESPECIALLY THE CONFUSED KESHI AND SOME OF THE PUNKS HE CALLS PLAYERS.
What do you expect from a bean-flipping twat?
She is a fairy what do you expect?
linda plz dnt mind ellen degeneres ignorant she has never bn to africa b4 nor does she knw anything abt africa.
Linda, she didnt mean that she does not know where Ghana is. She only meant it took her longer time to decipher what side of the pitch the Ghananians were playing...it does happen to me too sometimes.
Pls linda it was on this blog that I watched an african man say that Osun was a country in Africa. So ellen's ignorance can be excused. IAi
She's a foolish woman, or rather "MAN"
Really....a whole ghana
Linda u need to be more careful with your posts, i dont think that was what she meant oooooo, i feel its more like it took her longer to see from which side to which side of the field Ghana is playing from ni....... regards dear
Then I guess her internet must have been slow enough to open google in a 32secs! Dumb one she is. I think she has even deleted the tweet sef.
Don't mind her, that's why Africans need to seat up in dis world cup...just see Nigeria's game yesterday, No passion and determination to win
Kinibigdeal?.. we Nigerians (Africans) simply think too much of ourselves. She might knw its in Africa but where in Africa is another thing. Calling her ignorant or her statement ignorant for that matter makes u sound very shallow. And by the way.. .. what reasons really has anyone got to bother where some self inflicted backward nations of the world are?

And soon a lot of ignorant Nigerians will see these Americans as role models...Most of them are dumb, uneducated individuals with American accent; but I guess most Nigerians think that anyone with America accent is educated and knowledgeable
She said US World Cup history. Not World Cup History.
USA play better Dan Ghana, though Ghana try.now how will Portugal qualify.

I don't think that is whta she meant by that statement. Mayb be she was refering to their position on pitch.
Lmfao!!!
These bloody americans must think that there are just two countries in the world,america and the others.stuck-up idiots!
Mumu shemale
I guess she was just exaggerating it to make a joke. Dnt really see any major crime in that. She obviously knows Ghana & isn't that slow.
Am not surprised. Most Americans think Africa is a country, may be Ellen is one of them. She probably thiinks Ghana will be one of the villages in Africa!
Its posible she may have not heard about Ghana.
2 much licking of pussy juice is affecting her brain. I came 4 fame nd nt 4 shame,but all d same,i sign my name(Renegade)
True

It is the fastest goal in US world cup history. The second part is sarcasm. U r the ignorant person Linda. Ellen is a comic.

Anyone would say same if it was their country that scored the goal...

Linda, you are the dull one here...she meant, ghana's position per their goal scoring, not their location. HABA! Linda, its straight forward English
Some Americans can be "MUMU" so she has never heard of Ghana before now? Ellen Degeneres you're so dump.

Even George Bush once called africa a country so what do u expect.All they do is watch TV.Too dmb to know that perhaps some of the gold she has is from Ghana or the chocolate she had earlier in the day may have come from cocoa from ghana.
Common Linda. She was just making a joke. She is a comediene for Pete' sakes. Abi u no wan make she sell her market as u dey sell ur own so???
Ellen should do her research or hire someone to. Ghana would have polvarised USA. They didn't want to disgrace them too much so America won't stop sending them aid. hehehe
So that crazy man in Ghana that claim that he is behind ronaldo injury cant do anything to usa players?
I no blame her at all,na elephant wey fall make different knives appear...kanvi
Ok. Being objective, for someone who doesn't know where Ghana is, it would actually take longer than 32seconds to find. That being said, I'm sure Ellen knows where Ghana is and was just joking. Linda relax, not everything is an insult to africans.
Racist...tinz...she is just a blonde lesbo mofo.
That's not what she meant. She means ghana wasn't anywhere in the game. She was being sarcastic.
SHE IS NOT DUMB. SHE WAS ONLY JOKING. PLEASE, DON'T HATE. IT'S NOT HER FAULT THAT THE WEST AFRICAN TEAMS, ESPECIALLY NIGERIA GOT A CONFUSED COACH AND SOME STUPID PLAYERS

SHE IS RIGHT!!!!
Read well b4 una talk rubbish.
She wrote in "U.S World cup history" and not "World Cup history".
Na she get her mouth.
These White are just as stupid as their thoughts towards africans. Can't blame them anyway
I think both of you are right. The goal ranks 5th in world cup history and the fastest in US world cup history. My understanding of her comment is that the goal is the fastest the US has scored since they started going to the world cup
Ghana sheav enter.Hillarious tweet.Yeye dey smell#inomoghettozvoice#To d next gist abeg

Stupid lesbian with stupid remarks.I'm disgusted at her right now

You ignorant idiot i didn't see any word referring to gay people in Linda's post
You just gave a perfect description of your mother. Fag!
Shut up jor!!!!!
Shez a miserable scumbag racist. Nothing interesting bou her. #hugefail.
Americans are in reality, very ignorant. Most of them have no idea what happens outside their country. However, if she has been a soccer follower, she would have known that the same Ghana beat them in their last two appearances.
How does she not knowing her geography an insult to anyone in Ghana or any other part of the world?
hmmmmmm, na wa for her
U are on ur own oo
Linda, she meant "US" world cup history not world cup history. Meaning that, that is the fastest goal the US has ever scored at the world cup
Pls stop watching, cos they got us all confused yesterday
You have the iQ of a standing fan.
U realize Dubia isn't in Africa right???
linda u r a dunce tho ? cant u see thats a joke ?
c'mon people! it was just a joke with a witty punch-line. she would have made the same joke if the match was between USA vs USA. 'lighten up yo self'. Sometimes, name calling could mean that one lack wits...- just saying
linda though! taking things a little bit too serious.. she obviously knows where ghana is and was trying to make a joke...
First of I need to understand what is bringing up the gay talk, who gives a fuck, secondly its Linda's opinion! If she feels the lady was being disrespectful that doesn't mean y'all have to insult her. If you don't like what you see dont read, common sense guys. We all have different views on what is funny or not. And for the others yeah keep insulting Nigeria if that makes y'all sleep at night. Rubbish

Why take it personal? Do you think that Ghana is Nigeria that they hear negative press about every day on the news? Ellen is a fantastic woman with a great heart!
Linda, read well. What she said was "fastest goal in US world cup history". Meaning a record for the United States, and not a global record.
Gbam!
Anya Moron!
Yankee-based and u still can't speak English. Smh
Ignoramus
I believe that Ellen (just like most Americans) do not know ehre Ghana is. Most Americans do not know what's outside their backyard. Most Americans do not even know all the states in the US. This is a fact (hard to believe but true). The typical American is just too proud/busy to learn of any place else besides the US.
Its paining you that ignorant Ellen does not know where Ghana is abi? Oya where is Lithuania?
She is just been funny as usual.. Nigerians can be stupid including u Linda.. get a life n all those of you saying shit cos she is gay.. check yourself well.. some of you.. your parents r Gay.. them just dey do m dey hide..
