Dave Chappelle Slams Katt Williams Viral Interview
Comedian Dave Chappelle has voiced his disapproval of Katt Williams’ recent remarks at DeRay Davis’ MonDERAYS event at the Hollywood Improv. Although Chappelle is known for having a no-phone policy in his shows, excerpts of his commentary on Williams have surfaced on social media.
The actor expressed his confusion over his selective focus on Black comedians only, stating, “He didn’t say anything about any of these white boys.” Criticizing what he perceives as a recurring pattern in Williams’ behavior, Chappelle remarked, “He does it all the time.” He further said,
“But, ni**a, I didn’t hear anything that you did wrong. He didn’t do nothin’ wrong? Katt didn’t do nothin’ wrong?… Katt was talking about s*it that ni**as did to other ni**as, but not about anything that ni**as did to him.”
Stating that he also had his struggles, the acclaimed comedian asserted that if he shared his story, it would be heart-wrenching, but still he “never, ever told on anybody.” While the Blue Streak actor commended his skills as a comedian, he also questioned why Williams would criticize his peers when they are all seeking better circumstances.
Kevin Hart Reacted to Katt Williams’ Remarks
During his appearance on the Club Shay Shay podcast, Katt Williams made some disrespectful comments about Kevin Hart as well. Williams claimed that he had never witnessed any significant excitement or anticipation for Hart’s shows, saying, “No one in Hollywood has a memory of going to a sold-out Kevin Hart show, there being a line for him.”
He even claimed that “for a five-year period” every movie the Jumanji actor did was initially a project that had been presented to him first. “I had said was just, ‘Can we take some of this Stepin Fetchit s*it out, and then I can do it,’” he further stated.
The Ride Along actor took to X (Twitter) to share a more measured reaction to Williams’ statements. “Gotta get that anger up outcha champ….,” he said before adding, “It’s honestly sad.” The actor used the opportunity to playfully mention a line from his new film Lift, stating that it was hinting toward Katt Williams.
