Bernie Mac is planning to release a DVD roast of Richards and invited Eddie Murphy and Shaquille O'Neal to join in the wicked fun. If such prominent blacks are willing to give the comic a platform, maybe the country is ready for his comeback.source, sourcedigg_url = 'DIGG_PERMALINK_URL';For more daily new posts visit www.poponthepop.com

Larry Thomas, "Seinfeld" "Postal" actor/Soup Nazi: Mr. Media Interview, Pt.
2007-07-27 05:30:00 (Return to Part 1)ANDELMAN: Now, as funny as Seinfeld and David and the producers thought it was, there was someone there who didn?t think this was one of their better episodes, right?THOMAS: Right. Oh, my God! Who later came back to haunt me again, actually. Michael Richards hated this script so much that he spent the entire working week, it?s usually four days of rehearsal or actually kind of five days of rehearsal, and on the fifth day, you shoot it that night before the audience, but they cut off a day this week because it was in October during the Jewish holidays. And so we only did four days and shot it on the fourth night, but all four days, he was just bending anyone?s ear that would hear him on how terrible a script this was.I don?t know who I felt more sorry for, me or Spike. Not only was I on ?Seinfeld? for the first time, but it was my first really major television guest spot after 15, 18 years of trying to get one. And so I had to listen to it. Spike, of course, went wi...

Michael Richards : 'N' Word Transcendence
2007-07-12 21:14:00 After his 'N' word tirade at a comedy club in West Hollywood, Michael Richards did public penance. He sought out out Jesse Jackson and offered an apology. Then he pretty much dropped out of view, leaving a few people wondering what had happened to him.The comedy club rant and subsequent fall-out has taken Richards on a new path. He has decided to quit stand-up, claiming the comedy club debacle caused him to lose heart and his sense of humor.Instead he recently boarded the magic bus headed to parts East - on a tour sponsored by the LA based Nithyananda Foundation.Nithyananda, aka "Swami G" is a so-called 'enlightened master' and has a large following. His devotees have nothing but praise and adoration for the latest cosmic wunderkind - most of it of the uncritical, starry eyed variety.Richards, to his credit, has maintained some critical distance from the Swami G hype. He describes himself as "just a tourist" and not a devotee of the Nithyananda group. He seems to have been most ...

Where'd ya learn comedy, Coulter, the Michael Richards School?
2007-03-07 05:56:01 ?C?mon, it was a joke. I would never insult gays by suggesting that they are like John Edwards. That would be mean.? This is Ann Coulter's "explanation" for unbelievably using the word "faggot" in reference to John Edwards. "Tact." This is a concept that Ms. Coulter (or at least her public persona) doesn't seem to have ever mastered. G.O.P.

Says Allred, "Richards wants this to be a secret meeting ... and we do not agree."tmz

Michael Richards is an Asshole!!
2006-12-06 21:04:03 Associated PressLOS ANGELES ? Michael Richards said Monday he spewed racial epithets during a stand-up comedy routine because he lost his cool while being heckled and not because he's a bigot.?For me to be at a comedy club and flip out and say this crap, I'm deeply, deeply sorry,? the former Seinfeld co-star said during a satellite appearance for David Letterman's Late Show in New York. ?I'm not a racist. That's what's so insane about this,? Richards said, his tone becoming angry and frustrated as he defended himself. A clip from the show played on CBS before Late Show aired Monday night. Richards described himself as going into ?a rage? over the two audience members who interrupted his act Friday at the Laugh Factory in West Hollywood. Richards responded to the black hecklers with repeated use of the ?n word? and profanities. Comedian George Lopez told Los Angeles television station KTLA that he thought Richards' lack of stand-up experience may have been a factor.?The questi...

Michael Richards to meet with hecklers
2006-12-02 12:39:03 Say one man in a crowd of people tries to shoot me as I walk down the street. So, I whip out my machine gun and mow down the entire crowd. I should be arrested, of course — but only for killing the innocent people in the crowd. No one should feel sorry I hurt the [...]
Michael Richards wills himself Jewish
2006-12-01 00:36:19 Last week I joined the “is Michael Richards Jewish?” debate squarely on the “no” side. A few folks on my comment board disagreed, arguing that (A) his publicist said he was and (B) some Jewish Web sites list him as a Jewish entertainer. It turns out I was right, at least insofar as Richards wasn’t raised [...]
Mel Gibson feels for Michael Richards
2006-12-01 00:36:01 Or said them on stage at a comedy club? I felt like sending Michael Richards a note. I feel really badly for the guy. He was obviously in a state of stress. You don’t need to be inebriated to be bent out of shape. My heart went out to the guy. Poor f—er, he’s getting it now. They’ll probably torture him for a while and then let him go. I like him. Entertainment Weekly They make a perfect pair. The EW interview has him denying he is an anti-semite and Passion was not anti-semitic and blah lies blah. Oh yeah boycott Apocalypto.
Michael Richards and more allegations
2006-11-23 23:12:01 Over at Gawker, they are reporting that Richards has recently been accused of even more racy and edgy jokes - gone bad. Two LA residents have said that Richards attacked them verbally at an L.A. Club. Carol Oschin and J.P. Fillet say that they had to sit through the attack of a man in the audience that started to heckle Richards. The jokes center around some Mel-Gibson style comments such as: ” You f***ing Jew. You people are the cause of Jesus dying. ” — Now obviously this guy has some thinking that he needs to do before coming back into the limelight. Of course these allegations are completely disgusting if they are true. I’m not sure that anyone really needs any convincing that these are possibly true, however. Richards’ publicist, Howard Rubenstein, even confirmed to TMZ that Richards had previously made derogatory comments, but Rubenstein said that this was part of the act. Yeah, right… Maybe Richards should get in contact with Kirk Dougl... |
