I see that Jlo's daughter Emme looks like her daddy. At least she'll be well-dressed.

break it down Nancy

Anyway...it was funny. Some of y'all need to have a coke and a smile.

For real, Nancy. This is just NOT the time for CLOWNS.

I don't care if YBF doesn't have a sense of humor and panties always in a wad. That stuff was funny and oh so true. A black woman could be president but not first lady. Man that was funny.

I wasn't going to comment till I saw his show last night in Atl. I will never again support a Chris Rock concert or movie. I don't know if he is going through something with his wife but he made a habit of putting down black women through his entire show. Ever time he made offensive statements about black women & put white women on pedistol, I had to deal with to bleached blonds in front of me standing & clapping. 1-Chris said we hate white women cause we know that Rosie O'donnel can walk into any black club & pull a blk man before us, and she don't even want a man............WHITE WOMEN WERE ON THEIR FEET CLAPPING. 2-Chris said that we always accuse blk men of wanting a white women as soon ast the get a little money. He said, no we want them when we are broke but just could not afford them. WHITE WOMEN WERE ON THEIR FEET CLAPPING. I guess blk women are only good enough for broke brothas. 3-Then the joke about a blk woman being 1st Lady. When he said black women would not know their place, I had to deal with a bunch of white women on their feet clapping as this black man was putting us down. Chris opening act was a 46yr old black man who was also bragging about his 20 something white girlfriend as if he finally achieved something. The tour should have been called the "I LOVE WHITE WOMEN TOUR." CHRIS ROCK DIDN'T SAY ONE POSITIVE THING ABOUT BLACK WOMEN DURING HIS ENTIRE SHOW.

his joke was disgusting and completely despicable. in a time when blacks are trying to make more progress and be seen as equal human beings, his jok,e was not funny. if anything, he should have talked about spitzer and his slut or how it would be to have a man taking the background to his wife. whether white or black, michelle is still a woman!

it was funny, i am sure the obamas laughed

How insulting to the Obamas.It was already said by a female reporter months ago that Michelle emasculated her husband, and now Cris would make an insensitive comment as that. People are taking things very literal, and who knows how sensitive Michelle is, she maybe offended by that statement. We don't know someone's level of tolerance. Cris needs to understand that his wife is not Michelle. But, why was the joke even necessary to make in the first place? And people really have Michelle wrong, she was asked in an interview, what would she do if Obama cheated? She said, well I guess I never had him. Now, I would a black woman, as Cris describe say something like that? Black comedians get me, whenever they're doing stand-up or t.v. interviews, they always say, oh no black folks don't do this, or black women don't or wouldn't. I'm sick and tired of that stereotype that all black people are the same. It's not true, and comedians need to stop acting like it's funny.

I must say I did chuckle at the end, my bad!

FIRST!!!!

WOW!! A very true statement, but inappropriate right now.

I thought it was pretty funny. I know that if I was in Michelle's Obama's place I would probably be saying "No- WE won the presidency sweetie." Especially considering the fact that Michelle is so well qualified herself - Princeton undergrad, and Harvard Law School. She's a bad chick and Barack knows that. That's why he wifed her up! Maybe she won't throw her friends in the Cabinet, but I'm sure we would see them somewhere in the future political framework.

I have been appalled and let me start here... The lack of education and social awareness seen on this thread is so unfortunate. For the past 40 years, black people have been in the fron seat and at time even driving their own self-respect, diginity, upward mobility, love for oneself and each other etc etc...into the ditch. Funny...please...I assume that Don Imus was funny last year when he made the joke about "nappy headed hoes"...it is techincally true isnt it...we have nappy hair (which we are taught to be ashamed of) and the world and our own men treat us and depict us as hoes. Yes of course this will be too deep for a group of people who are shallow and ignorant as the ones on this thread. Nancy and some of the others who saw this for what it is, Thank You. One person said, "Some of y’all need to have a coke and a smile." Sorry I am not a part of your house negro minstrel show. I am not going to smile in the face of disrespect. One person said, "ho are you?oprah?laugh girl,laugh!!!its funny coz that the way we are…and who have you been hanging out wit-whites?”so much fun”?i dont think so". Yeah if you hung around whites then you would not be laughing at such jokes. These stereotypes of us have been around for years and have been at the root of black subjugation. If some of you saw the disrespectful smears about Michelle Obama on predominately white sites then you would not be laughing. Chris Rock and them are all on the same page. The very construction of black womanhood in American society has been dehumanizing and demonizing. The sad part is that blacks are now giving it life. You guys are embarssing your own negative stereotypes so why bother be up in arms when whites say anything about you...anyhting? Marcus X, I am singling you out because of your name. I am assuming that you have been some how inspired by brother Malcolm. If so then I will let you know that Malcolm X tolerated no disrespect towards black women. He claimed that black women were always the most disrespect and unprotected. In order for a black man to be a man, he must protect his women like every other race of men. When you do not protect your women and treat them with respect, expect no one else to and expect not to be looked at as a real man. Grace, girl!! I believe you 100%. That was why I stopped going to black minstrel...oops I meant black comendy shows. White audiences laughing at stereotypcial caricatures of blacks is an age old form of entertainment. It is also degrading and embarassing. Many comedians are decent but there are too many in the mix who just take things way to far. Black women are easy scapegoats for laughs. If you people on this thread only knew how damaging this was then you would not be laughing. However you are short sighted and ignorant. I am sorry that you had to experience that Grace. Please do not subject yourself to that again!! Empower yourself. I can be very light hearted but I do not play with things like this because they just are not funny regardless of the time. Chris Rock, you are the epitome of a COON!!

I thought it was funny too.... When I first started reading it, I thought "Oh Lord, here we go with this ish" but I think he ended it very well.

It's just cooooooomedy! Rock is controversial and the fact that Obama's wife is totally opposite then his comedic description that joke shouldn't be taken literally. Learn to discern... yeah I agree it's out of context of the rest of his stand-up and tour name is "NO APOLOGIES"

Natasha, I went to his London concert at the Hammersmith Apolo (Jan 25th 2008), and he preformed this joke. At the time it was funny but in retrospect everyone was like, that concert was SHIT. the warm up act was better than him. I forgot who he was, but he's known. He was really good. I was really expecting some Never Scared type jokes. That would have made my night. Now, is he really using all of the same jokes he performed in London in the states too? wow talk about recycling!

I thought that was funny. LOL!!

LMAO, i thought this was funny as shit but when thinking of the forum he said it in (rolling stone magazine) know "white- eyes" would read it and totally misinterpret it, its not funny but had he said it in a black publication or to a black audience, i dont think there was harm done--- cuz i think we would have "gotten" it as a harmless joke

I'm not amused but I do find some honesty in his joke. Black women are very loyal and tend to give back to their people unlike Black men.

When has C. Rock ever been funny? Never! This is just another tired joke in his repertoire of tired jokes.

I just dont like Chris Rock...he's just flat out lame to me..EFF the comments, its his whole persona..soo lame.
