Late to the party and lazy with his jokes. God, I remember when Chapelle was funny. This is so sad.
Daniel Tosh and most other comedians always make fun of gay people, and I’m always laughing. But Dave Chapelle it feels cringey because I don’t feel people are watching stand up, feels like a rally at church and at any point they are pulling out the ticky torches.
>Chappelle, 50, had a bit about Lil Nas X, 24, in The Dreamer, his new comedy special, which premiered on Netflix on Sunday, December 31. Chappelle spoke about how Nas X became “the gayest n—a that ever lived” and that his “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” music video was about him “suck[ing] the devil’s d—k at 10 o’clock on BET while all the kids are awake and can see me.”
It’s 2023 and Dave fucking Chappelle is pulling the “Won’t someone think of the children!!” routine.
It’s also telling he thinks “kids” are watching basic cable at 10 at night lol
Chapelle made maybe 3 jokes total about LGBT people and the special was one hour. It’s selective outrage.
I kinda liked when Dave Chappelle fell off the face of the earth and nobody knew what he was doing for a solid few years
While it’s not his best work he’s still very funny. Don’t understand all the hate he’s getting.
Lmao does no one here have a sense of humor!? It was a fucking joke, and the special was HILARIOUS.
Not every group needs special protection from jokes. Try to laugh it off.
Everytime Chapelle does a stand-up special, people focus on one thing. In a one hour performance, he makes 4 or 5 jokes about the LGBT and people lose their minds and act like that’s all he spoke about. Selective outrage is a mfer.
Can see in the comments who didn’t watch the special
I took this joke as him praising Lil Nas X. It was respect.
All of these comments are people choosing to be mad about something they’ve never seen and couldn’t be forced to give a shit about anyway
Am I the only one here that didn’t think Chapelle was making fun of him in a bad way and was more appreciating his drive and dream and simply poking fun in a comical way?
Why do people on here get so ass hurt when someone says something, in a comedic routine mind you, they don’t agree with?
Glad Chappelle loves “punching down” shows what a rich out of touch prick he’s become
Growing up as a white gay guy, one memory I had is being picked on/bullies by white straight kids but as well pretty heavily straight kids of other races. It always stood out to me because well
My point is it seems important, as it should, to Dave that the black community is treated with respect and equally as they should yet it doesn’t dawn on him that it’s hypocritical asking for respect but then shitting on another group? And come on, this clearly isn’t just jokes. To be that focused through this many shows over this many years on such a specific topic is…something else
Can’t wait for Dave’s next special: “Old Man Yells at Cloud.”
Chappelle is in the anti-woke camp. Which in essence means he still feels free to kick down without feeling like a POS.
I’ve said this before and I will say it again, old Dave Chappelle would make fun of new Dave Chappelle.
Dave is funny as hell and I loved that special. He can joke about Lil Nas X, Lil Nas X can talk about Dave in a song. Dave’s comedy isn’t for everyone. Lol Nas X’s music isn’t for everyone.
I’m not saying Chappelle hasn’t been problematic, but turning every little joke into rage-bait for clicks is ruining comedy and making life overall less fun.
Only Wayne Brady knows the right way to clap back at Chappelle.
Gay jokes and trans joke how innovative. What a hack. Next.
> “I had no idea who he was,” admitted Chappelle. “The minute he walked in that party, I knew I was in his dream. Everybody in the party was another dreamer. Everyone was famous, but when that n—a walked in, he was dressed like C-3PO. He was shining! “Everybody was like, ‘Oh my God, there he is! It’s Lil Nas X, ah!’ I didn’t know who he was, and for some reason, out of all those dreamers, he walked right up to me and he said, ‘I tried to get you in my video.
>
>Chappelle said he didn’t know “what the f—k he was talking about” and asked which video Nas X meant. “And he just looked at me, [and said], “You know what video,’ and walked away. And I watched him walk away. I said, ‘Man, this n—a is having a very powerful dream.’
​
It doesn’t sound like he’s mocking him in this instance.
Clickbait shit headline, Dave was *praising* this kid and even has a picture of them hanging out during the credits. The special is great, just watch it and form your own opinions!
The only thing I care to know about is if the Lil Nas X response was a conscious Taskmaster reference or not. 😀
Lmfao at all the people mad at Chappelle, keep giving him the free promo by posting and being offended by him!
As if these people haven’t learned they’re the promoters.
I died laughing as soon as he went for his typical target
Googled his name and saw all the news articles and angry social media posts and thought man these offended people are stupid
>yall gotta let call me by your name go, me and the devil broke up 3 years ago. yall acting like children of divorce
i have no idea what this means and i can’t even tell if that tweet is directed it at chappelle cus it’s a retweet.
Let’s stop paying attention to Dave. He needs no further attention. He was talented in 1998. He’s lost that talent.
That’s so crazy I interpreted that as his or in general a comedians olive branch to the community. Still had to crack jokes but the message was about dreaming and believing in yourself and what only you know and believe. I thought the connection was that no one can tell you who are what you are, you get to decide that and that he had a lot of respect for him. Even showed them smiling in the credits together for a photo.
This is an example of both comedy not translating to text and an example of reaching for criticism. Chappelle in the special was praising Lil Nas X for living his dream and actually has a photo with him in the end credits.
When I see Dave aging, it blows my mind how he looks more and more like Clayton bigsby
Uhh Dave was pretty much praising him, almost ala Prince as being this creative “dreamer”.
I don’t see why people are upset at this?
How is this at all offensive? A comedian made fun of how someone was dressed. And then he made fun of them for assuming he knew who they were. All fair game in comedy.
He can take a dick…but can’t take a joke?
>”When Lil Nas X (real name Montero Lamar Hill) finally responded to the bit, he said that Chappelle was late to the “hate on Montero” party, especially since the song and video came out in March 2021. “Y’all gotta let ‘Call Me By Your Name’ go,” Lil Nas X wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday, Jan. 3. “Me and the devil broke up 3 years ago. Y’all are acting like children of divorce.””

Why the FUCK did no one post the content of the article, had to click on that shit for a twitter post, god damn.
