SEINFELD STAR SPEWS RACIST RANTS
“I’m Cozmo Kramer, Assman.”
Remember that line from Seinfeld? Well, today the actor who played Kramer might feel like an Assman. Michael Richards was performing at the Laugh Factory in LA last Friday night when some audience members heckled him.
Kyle Doss, an African-American, said that he and some friends were in the cheap seats and he was heckling Richards when suddenly, the comedian lost it. Richards went off on the men saying, "Fifty years ago we'd have you upside down with a fucking fork up your ass." Richards continued, "You can talk, you can talk, you're brave now motherfucker. Throw his ass out. He's a nigger! He's a nigger! He's a nigger! A nigger, look, there's a nigger!"
One of the men with Doss was outraged, shouting back "That's un-fucking called for, ain't necessary."
Jerry Seinfeld released the following statement this afternoon: "I am sick over this. I'm sure Michael is also sick over this horrible, horrible mistake. It is so extremely offensive. I feel terrible for all the people who have been hurt."
Seinfeld will be on The Late Show with David Letterman tonight and Richards will join them via satellite to discuss the incident.
Not that anyone should be surprised but the rant was caught on video tape by an audience member and is available on YouTube. To view the video visit our SPECICAL ASSIGNMENT section.
We do caution you the rant is racist and vulgar.
