For those of you who haven’t seen Michael Richards…
November 22nd, 2006 | by Jeremy |For those of you who haven’t seen Michael Richards’ (better known as Kramer on Seinfeld) “racist” tirade during a stand-up comedy performance at the Laugh Factory in Los Angeles last Friday, you can watch it below. Apparently, some black audience members were heckling him and, well, here ya go…
Then, Jerry Seinfeld appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman on Monday and asked if Michael could also be on and explain himself. Of course Letterman allowed it. But Michael was on via satelite and it just came off as very… awkward. Check it out…
Of course, this isn’t the first time Kramer has seen racial controversy. Puerto Ricans got upset at NBC over a Seinfeld episode entitled “The Puerto Rican Day”. That episode never aired on NBC again but is available in syndication. Oh, that Kramer!
