Let’s be real… Robert Downey Jr did the shit and people (for the most part) hold it in high regard. Jamie Kennedy is mad because he’s not funny and he knows it.

Maybe by “it” he meant comedy? Because Jaime Kennedy definitely doesn’t do that.

Jamie Kennedy got away with it because no one has ever watched Jamie Kennedy
OreoYip on
Wow. Someone I haven’t thought about in like…25 years. Has he always been somewhat relevant since then or is he trying to make a comeback?
dascharmingharmony on
Can we be honest though? What druski did was not anything close to what we see from blackface minstrelsy, with tue exaggerated features and such.
“Why can’t we do it?” Because of the history, Jamie. The racist history is why you can’t, dude.

Hes also in Boiler Room repeatedly dropping n-bombs despite it not actually being important for the plot. I dont think he ever got blowback for that.

What an idiot. Going out his way to tell on himself. Never even knew this clown did blackface until right now.

How sad to be that unimportant that doing blackface fell under the radar

Also, this is about Jamie Kennedy trying to be relevant. Let it go man! You are destined to just be a normal dude. Malibu’s Most Wanted 2 simply ain’t in the cards.

Did he just shamelessly try to plug his old ass show? Yikes. 😬

I did think that was crazy. The response on that side has been “oh he’s doing white face? What if I did black face?! Anyways here’s footage from 15 years ago doing black face”

Context and nuance are very important here.

Idk apparently if your found funny by a fringe amount of people that are the majority of online influence it’s ok

Why does Jamie look like RDJ in blackface?
That’s the real crime. RDJ was just the dude playin’ the dude, disguised as another dude!

This show is on Tubi. That’s the complete opposite of being cancelled, he’s still getting residuals from it!

The last time that I thought about Jamie Kennedy was when he popped up in an episode of Arrested Development.
The entirety of the mental experience:
“Oh, weird, I kind of remember him. Didn’t he die?”
[checks IMDB]
“No, just not working a lot, it seems.”

Jamie Kennedy try being funny challenge.

Comics are always, and have always, tested what may be done and what is funny. Not because they lament being victims of cancel culture and just wish that no one would care or be offended. But because it’s their job. What used to be funny, becomes not funny. Then what used to be offensive becomes funny. It goes around and around.
They are not victims. They straddle the line, and when the line moves, they move with it. If they don’t, they just stay being Andrew Dice Clay and people stop caring.
numbmillenial on
He must mean if Druski can go viral, then why can’t he. And the answer is BECAUSE YOU’RE NOT FUNNY.
I swear I can’t stand unfunny comedians. Find something you’re actually good at. I hear McDonald’s is hiring.

😒😒 please, he was in Malibu’s most wanted. they always got something to say.

Jfc these absolute whiny babies are the worst.
You ALREADY did it, and it was FINE. In fact, it was so fine that you got PAID to do it and weren’t canceled.
On top of the idiocy there, these people have NO fucking clue WHY it is offensive. They just think “oh no the woke police decided for no good reason that blackface is bad therefore white face is JUST AS BAD! Because it hurt my feelings”. Completely MISSING the actual historical context of minstrel shows and the reason blackface is offensive and harmful. As far as I know there weren’t any white minstrel shows so fuck off with that.
This entire discourse is just so incredibly stupid man.
ArizonaRon98 on
Damn, being so unfunny that you did blackface and no one gives a shit because you couldn’t get any less relevant has got to be a serious reality check.
ogrefab on
Probably a sad attempt to drum up some bigger royalty checks.

Do a majority of white folks tell their children the world is theirs? They sure do hate being told they can’t do something. It drives them insane to hear “you can’t do that”
liltonbro on
Mmm…his dick is the only decent thing about him.

Jamie Kennedy is desperate. He must be showing his clip cos nobody has been watching his show

Blackface and Minstrelsy= making fun of all black people
What Druski did was not that. Hell, arugable Kennedy didn’t either in this lame sketch but its still not a good look considering the historical connotations of blackface
noob1588 on
What’s crazy is a white man murdered her husband in cold blood and she forgave him. A black man makes a joke about you and now you wanna bring out the pitchforks
