I am a black married woman with kids living in America. I just watched the HBO Special with Chris rock and was insulted and was humiliated for both white people and black people. He is very very racist. He acts like people are not responsible for their own destinies. He is going on and on about Obama being the first black president and never ONCE does he mention that Obama's mother is white. That he was raised by a white woman who helped him become the man he is and encouraged him to live his life to the fullest. If he does become the president and I hope he does, it will mean that we have a president that is coming to the table mixed with the best of both worlds. There are so many people in interracial relationship's these days that he should recognize that and see how far the world has come and stop living back 200 years ago. We are all going to end up in the same place in the end anyway. So get over it. Have you not seen his Obama's last commerical about his Grandpa and Mom. They are WHITE!!!!!!! So stop encouraging racism and realize that what happened to your family years ago is in the past and leave it there!!!!

he went from saying black people are the most racist people in the world to saying white people have taken the title. He says black people are thought to be Obama supporters because he's black NOT because they get the issues, meanwhile he says white people just "walk into money and success" what a load of crap. Who are these white people? Chris, didn't they go to school and study and sacrafice? You can't overcome racism by shifting from white on black racism to black on white racism. But I guess he isn't trying to accomplish such a thing is he? He's just looking to grab some cash. Black people should be clamoring for some Bill Cosby. He is the only comedian figure who seems to get that personal responsibility is key to success, NOT the color of one's skin. Grow up Chris.

I agree with LadieBee 100%. I just saw Chris Rock in Las Vegas...people were leaving VERY early (within the first 30 minutes)...something is definitely going on between he and his wife...the way he carried on about black women was shocking...not too many black women are going to support him after hearing about this....I have a great sense of humor, but bitter attacks just aren't funny.
LadieBee 03/29/2008
I just attended chris's No apologies performance and was extremely disheartened. As a historically huge fan of chris I have never been more insulted and disappointed. His rampage on destroying the African American woman was shocking, hurtful and definitely not funny. His constant repeating of himself made the 45 min show an 1.5 hr long. mediocre. People were leaving within the 1st 15 min. (they were smart)!! I don't know what chris is going through personally but his career is definitely coming to an abrupt end. His old material is still hilarious but currently he's simply profiting off of his old reputation. If I could get my money back I would!! I highly discourage anyone with a healthy since of humor from going to see chris!!

Apparently, Chris Rock's sense of humour flies over the heads of many people...

Even giving him that black comedians can get away with a lot more than white comedians, one day Chris Rock will go too far for 2 simple reasons: one- he has no judgment - he really means some of the crap he spouts. If you can't see that, you're blind; and two - he's low on material. Aside from his obnoxious voice, I can't stand watching him because he repeats everything three or four times. If he oly said each thing once, how long of a show could he give?
tonyj 01/08/2008
People like him are the ones keeping racism alive in this country. He is not funny. And I am black and got everything I ever worked hard for.
blue47 05/22/2007
He loves the "N" word
Audreyce 03/28/2006
Not that funny....actually quite annoying and a tad overrated-
doobiesNhof 03/26/2006
I'm sorry but after Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy he just doesn't cut the mustard. Just not funny.
bluemangroup04 10/04/2005
he is the most annoying person ever! i cannot stand his voice
scarletfeather 09/18/2005
He doesn't particularly tickle my funny bone. He's a smart ass, but smart asses are not always amusing.
tkinusa 09/18/2005
I just sat through Chris Rock: Never Scared. I am a white male who always loved his show and feel that this is a good example of how writers make or break a comedian, as this was a real let down. I know many have tagged him a racist after this performance. I don't use the racist tag as it is too subjective and high horse as we all have our prejudices and should be careful about how much we judge. I will say that Chris is a man who clearly has contempt for white people and blames whites for all of the black problems. Eg. getting arrested for dealing and using drugs, not doing well in school, etc. in his segment on affirmative action. Surprisingly, he makes more of a case against affirmative action and I felt myself getting pushed to the right on this issue with his points. Perhaps most noticeable is that he gets caught up in his own words throughout the performance repeating the same phrase over and over to eat up time and subsequently, kill any momentum he would have had. He needs to hire his old HBO writers and start reading their scripts instead of this weak attempt at comedy/blame preaching. He may get richer with this trash, but it is 1 star material.

Very funny and a smart man too.
Lexia 03/29/2005
I LOVE YOU CHRIS!!! He's totally funny and has a great presence and he's not afraid to say it like it is. Go on boy!!! He rocks!
Westfale 03/12/2005
he needs to try decaf.
singsplatsing 02/20/2005
His standup is truly genius, you either have to be dumb, uninformed or too PC not to see that. But his voice is obnoxious as hell!
RipVanWrinkele d 11/25/2004
So it's ok for black comedians to use race to make money and push their anti-white agenda, but it's politically incorrect for white comedians to do it? F... you Chris Rock. It's people like you who cause racial bias.
seth2628 09/30/2004
He is nothing but a racist, I find him occasionally humorous but mostly just alot of hostility towards white people. I dont know what fantasy land he lives in but I am white and pulled myself up from poverty and I resent every comment he made! I couldnt even finish watching it.
IMGONNARATEIT 08/26/2004
ALL HE CAN DO IS TALK ABOUT WHAT WHITES HAVE DONE AND WHAT BLACKS WILL DO AND HOW SORRY WHITES ARE AND HOW GREAT BLACKS ARE.THIS IS NOT HUMOR ITS RACISM.THERE ARE SEVERAL BLACK COMEDIANS THAT ARE FUNNY WITHOUT PLAYING HE RACE CARD.I GUESS TIME WILL TELL ON HIS OUTLOOK OF GOVERNMENT ....NOTICE THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A COMEDIAN THAT MADE JOKES ABOUT BLACKS THAT WOULDNT BE TO FUNNY WOULD IT. THIS GUY DESERVES NOTHING!!!
politicapollo 08/20/2004
chris rock starts out funny but kills it when he goes into his pro-drug stance. he suggests there should be equal opportunity for black drugdealers to get rich like whitedrugdealers what an idiot! youcant be problack and support crack. chris rock is an idiot!
owagz 08/14/2004
any of u who think he is racist are just wrong and dont understand what he is trying to do cause u dont see it from his point of view......now i am mixed with both black and white and STILL find him hilarious.....so saying he is racist is just not right cause he is not he is trying to make all the racisim in the world a lil' better by turning it into a joke!!!!
David Brown 05/30/2004
Any one listening to Chris Rock's new HBO Special will hear his racist remarks. Oh. He makes a few cracks about blacks but his remarks about Whites are meant to defame and devide. He remarks that Blacks are taking over all sports and will soon take over hockey as soon as thay get a heated hockey rink. He tries to be funny , but he lets his true feelings about Whites be heard quite clearly, and White people are to stupid to recognise what they are hearing.A White comic would never get by with the same type of humor and racist remarks When will we wake up and turn the trash off. And lets see if Chris misses the money he is making off of Whites.To hear him talk we are all Geeks, Nerds and Crackers, and Blacks are GREAT and they are taking over.
coleslough 05/28/2004
not his cup of soup
GoChrisRock 05/25/2004
Chris Rock is far from a racist!!! He is a man who expose some factors about out now RACIST PRESIDENT OF THE USA and the on-going RACIST government of the United States of AMERICA. His comments was on POINT and that is why WHITE People don't LIKE IT because THE TRUTH hurt. Alot of White People (not all) Still try to hold back people of different backgrounds (look at what they are doing in IRAQ) and Chris ROck EXPOSED IT!!!!!! So don't hate on Chris Rock hate RACIST AMERICA!!!!
Big-D04 05/13/2004
Chris Rock is a Racist, I don't know what more I can say. I could go on and on.
AirbrushArtist 04/17/2004
racist, mAKES FUN OF WHITE FOLKS
Redoedo 04/03/2004
Loud, obnoxious and unfunny. His entire career has been a pitiful (and failed) attempt to mold himself after Eddie Murphey.
hoss63 03/31/2004
Chris Rock is a f...... RACIST. I have seen him on the 2003 and 2002 MTV video awards and all he does is put down white people while praising blacks, the worst thing is the whites in the audience laugh at his racist humour either because they are too scared to say anything because then they will be the racist or because they are just plain DUMB
kolby1973 08/12/2003
Another racist who does not deserve his popularity for spreading hatred. I will never watch or condone anything he stars in.
StanUzbeck 08/12/2003
This lunkhead is not even remotely funny. He is loud and obnoxious and has said precisely ONE thing in his whole television history that I have found funny, and no, I will not repeat it here. This jackass does not need the free advertising.
donald Patrick 07/13/2003
GHETTO HUMOR IS NOT FUNNY
Stargal 05/18/2003
This guy is just an idiot.He calls himself a comedian.He's as funny a dead person.He makes me sick.
President -X-D 04/14/2003
Generally unfunny, but he had a great team and great writers on his show. I find him irritating and a 3rd rate Eddie Murphy at best.
Medusa1861 04/14/2003
He's pretty cool
forgotten hero 03/30/2003
Irritating man with an irritating voice.
Cynical Sam 02/28/2002
There's a line by Jim Carey in the motion picture "Me, Myself, and Irene" that pretty much sums up my opinion of Chris Rock..."he's a funny motherf*cker"!
callmetootie 04/07/2001
He can carry on his own show, but Chris Rock is a bit too crude for TV. He seems ok in his role, hosting his own television show, but he goes overboard sometimes, and can hurt people's feelings.
shabeen 02/16/2001
castle bee, honey, you got to take your anger management and shove it into your crackerasscracker...etc.
STRONG 12/20/2000
He is funny at times, but unbelievably filthy mouthed. Too racey most of the time. Needs to gain a few pounds.
Scutesocks 11/20/2000
HE MAKES ME SICK- HE IS SO STUPID I CAN'T STAND TO LOOK AT HIM.
music4life 11/03/2000
Chris is a funny guy, but his ability to host is very poor. Nobody needs to cuss at much at this guy does. It's very childish, and just makes it seem like he just wants attention. Sometimes I can't even understand his jokes because he cusses so much. I beleive you can get your point across without cussing straight through your sentences. However, his potential to be a very good comedian is limitless.
ChrissyLove 09/20/2000
He's cool...
Munson 03/20/2000
I like him a lot as a comedian, but as a talk show host, he's nothing special. He isn't a good interviewer, but the rest of the show is pretty funny. His version of "Taxicab Confessions" is hilarious.
slev1419du 11/21/1999
Chris Rock rocks!
good1414om 11/21/1999
Funniest man alive, his voice kicks ass.
ames1412et 11/21/1999
Chris Rock has just come onto the scene and is receiving mad props. He is mad funny and mad cool. I just wish him all the best w/his career.
csmi1393du 11/21/1999
Chris Rock is a comedian on the rise.
BIZC1035om 11/09/1999
Chris Rock has won several Cable Ace awards & has shown the world that he might truly be the funniest man in the America. Has broken records for HBO specials.
