While speaking at the Variety Creative Impact Awards, Chris Rock began campaigning for an Oscar for his latest comedy Top Five and supposedly made his mother and Black women the butt of his joke
"Comedies never get nominated. So I'm going to blatantly appeal to the voters. February 22 is my mother's birthday. 70th birthday. If I'm nominated, I will take her to the Oscars. If not, I will take her to Fatburger. We don't need another Black woman at Fatburger. So please vote for me." Chris said to nfluential Academy Award votersIs this an offensive statement? Black twitter has been letting him have it for days now!

Awww my Chris Rock how you gonna say that? Am sure your so desperate for that oscar but at the end of the day you might not get it...
He might ave said it to sound funny, he's a comedian after all. Though kinda offensive. Buh den nt ma biz
If the concerned black women say it's offensive then it is
ewo no temi mbe? THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH
Whatever...it's none of my bizness
He is a comic and can say anything, so fat he is referring to his mother, it's none of your business....... sometimes you hear and pretend not to hear.
Chris is a comedian linda,maybe he wanted to make a comic statement.
GEJ till 2019
.👏BIG BROTHER SAYS SO.👏
Well he's a comedian what were they expecting?? And after all its his mum...
Just a great joke. Not offensive at all, except the subtle health awareness for black women to avoid fatburger, which is a good thing really.
He's a big foolmim equally mad right now.
They shuld give it to him.retard comedy
armless joke that got twisted
to me its just a joke, shouldn't be taken so personally
His a comedian for crying out loud ... Their careers has made them foolish in a way so they say stupid things most times without knowing it.
It's their life and this time ... they can't help it.
Nice one.
He is trying to crack joke out of it. Though, quite hilarious.
D white wil see nothing wrong wit dis bcos of their board perspective but d black wil see everytin wrong wit it bcos of their narrow perspective.
Na dem sabi. Linda take note!
Its kinda offensive na. Its way out of line

They should go and sleep, the man is simply being a comedian.

I can't say I'm surprise. Black women have always and will forever be the butt of every black comedian's joke. The day I lost interest was when Kevin Hart openly said he wouldn't dare make a gay joke (because he knows the movers and shakers of Hollywood are all closeted gay men and woman, and, or pushing the gay agenda). And any joke perceived as homophobic would mean the end of his dreamy career. He will never be allowed to work in Hollywood again. Ask Isaiah Washington what that is like. The only open-season jokes are black women. And dark skinned women are usually his favorite target.
Black Americans are always forming victims, are they this jobless or what, no wonder crime seems to be there only hope in life.......there is nothing wrong in what he said, infact its a compliment, it depends on how one wants to understand it
>>>> It is a joke, somehow African Americans are too sensitive. <<<<
Lol
For crying out loud he is a comedian.... I dnt think he meant any harm.... its jst his usual way of making jokes
Blacks n their racist shit.... evry one becomes a racist
Sounds like a dirty joke, serves him right..
Sometimes African Americans get overly sensitive abeg. They should work on their sense of humor. It was just a joke biko.

No it is quite funny
Get a grip people!
he is a comedian!
And no, we dont need another fat black woman
There is a big difference between comedy and insult, and this is clearly an insult to all black women!!! Chris Rock, you even disrespected your own mother, because of Oscar votes, no wonder your marriage crashed, you pitiful moron, dry like bonga fish!!! Whizman
What's with we black people and our insecurities and low self esteem. Has what he said removed a dollar from your accounts or something.its his mouth and his mama,let him say whatever he wants.
I am sure he did not mean to be offensive,haha his own mama
e concern them sha.
............''''''PRAY4NIGERIA'''''''.............
Dts his biz,afterall he yabbed his own mum
Nothing really weird about d comment.
Chris Rock is sick
Chris Rock brain don f**k up..#Kolo
There's no bigdeal.
The joke is too African american for me
Oh shut up! Chris Rock is known for his insensitive and irreverent comedy. When you black people go to his shows and he cracks on white people (which constitutes majority of his jokes/show), we don't see any OMG outrage!! Instead you're there kikiki-ing and laughing it right up. Stop with it. I understand racism and all but geez stop already!
This chris rock can sometimes be dry..who heard his stale jokes at The BET awards last year about rick Ross dying of breast cancer? I didn't think it was funny cos cancer isn't sumn u joke with to get attention. . He's rich so he can afford to insult his mother. .after all, it's America. Mschew!

Woah! It does sound offensive bt am sure he meant it as a joke and he didn't know it is quite hurtful.
that's very disrespectful
that's disrespectful
Don't seem offensive to me tho.
VERULE Says - Chris dats ur own bussSs. "Beautifu is life"
Na him sabi, let's see if his gonna get nominated??
Shey he wants fame??? At the end of the day of what use will it be to him? Smh
Honestly I don't know. Black Americans have their culture pertaining to the kind of things they find offensive. .
Though, he's a comedian, but there are sensitive spots he should know better than touch. Might be seen as a joke, from his mum, but in this small global village, them black women won't read that smiling.
Well i don't understand what he means so don't know if its a shade or not.
Thr biz.
that's disrespectful
Linda, it's a joke... Na wa for this pc brigade. If comedians listened to them, there'd be no jokes. Are black american women fat? You betcha! So are a quarter of americans
Its his way of being a comic relief..People take tins too personal
Clearly it was a joke that meant no offence so people don't need to take it personally...
Linda what's next. Engr Emy
Shading blacks isn't fair
Shading blacks isn't fair
Hehehe! Its just a joke joor!

I don't see anything wrong with it...but trust black Americans are their No nonsense attitude....

Offensive if you don't have a sense of humour. People are so hung up on what other people say and they forget to live their own lives.
Fatburger, really!!!!!!!!!!
Hmmmm, thank God he is not my son
This is one of many similar offenses by him. Obesity is an American problem. Two thirds are overweight. Get off black women's back.
Black Americans have become too sensitive to this race ish these days. It was a joke! And he is black too, so what r they saying?
Well, some pple will take to be offensive while others wouldn't. Depends on how u c it
