Did This Comedian Disrespect Michelle Obama on ESPN Radio?
On the Jim Rome show on ESPN, comedian Jay Mohr went on a rant that many are saying went over the lines of humor. Here’s what he had to say.
Michelle Obama – that is a big dude. When Barack plays pick up games at the White House, you know he picks Michelle as his forward, maybe his [center] depending on who’s in Congress that day.
That has to be like being married to Elton Brand. She is a big dude. I like when she put her arm around the Queen of England – and she put her in a headlock and said, “I’ve been waiting 200 years to put my arms around you lady.”
I like how she shaved off her eyebrows, and then drew them back way to high – and in an arch – and then way back down, so she always looks super surprised. Michelle Obama kind of looks like the Count on Sesame Street. One … Ha Ha … One Black President … Ha Ha.
What a year. The cardinals make the Super Bowl, the Rockies make the World Series, and the President smokes Newports.

« Previous 1 ... 9 10 11They always gone be HATERS…She is elegant…
Typical non-funny comedian that’s full of himself…..Wake me up, when he becomes funny
He is not funny at all, just an ass-hole. I listened to him and the type of gutter language and savage talk that this tiny dic…so-called comedian white boy used is not acceptable by civilized human beings in the seclusion of their own homes, or on national television in front of 20 or 50 million viewers.
His comedy is one of classic buffoonery. No the first lady is not off limits from comedians, but one must be very careful when making jokes about this woman. She is the first black first lady and under the white microscope. Anything negetive said about her will last for generations to come.
Remember, white folks called black people the N word and it has stuck for years!!!
Also reading some these comments, you would think that white folks posted some of them in this “sorrynobusinessborninsecurejunkyardratsoupeatincomedians defense.” If this is true it only proves that some of us have no pride.
if u listen too him it sorter make him look like an ass. it not going to get point let people be ignorant.
LOL@SOME OF YOU FREAKING OUT ABOUT SOME STUPID JOKES
AND
LOL@THE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY THINK HIS JOKES WERE RACIST
That was nothing, and it wasn’t funny. Now comedians had a field day with Barbara Bush. One even said she looked like George Washington.
Excuse me??? When is a First Lady off limits from comedians? Okay…it wasn’t funny but it also wasn’t racist. I wasn’t offended, but then, I’m not married to her and she ain’t my mama! We’re from the same neighborhood in Chicago and I loves me some Michelle but I don’t think she is untouchable. Some people have no sense of humor but that doesn’t mean we all have to lose our damn minds!
lol @ “big dude”! pickup games? not n da white house…do it on da lawn or sumpin. put da queen in a headlock! lmao! lol @ ’shaved her eyebrows an drew em back way 2 hi’. id neva herd a him but he funny. he dint diss michelle. he js da 1st comic wit da balls ta make a funny bout her. no harm or shame n dat.
Come on, y’all. Yes, she is the first black First Lady, however, that doesn’t make her exempt from being the butt of comedian’s jokes like every other First Lady has been. You guys are just being a tad bit too sensitive, IMO. And Jay Mohr is funny… sometimes…
@12Playa…Thank you! Your comment is eloquently expressed. AMEN!
@shiftieberrypie. I am in agreement with stepping on Jay Mohr’s face. Let him keep his tongue, but let it be silenced. He should be shunned and his career cut short like the Dixie Girls or whatever the name is of those female Country singers who spoke out against George W. Bush.
Jay Morh is indeed rude and ignorant. Our First Lady, Michelle Obama is a beautiful, tall, lady who happens to be in top notch physical shape.
I agree with Dom_da_dude…The man is a comedian…I mean some things he said wasn’t all that funny..but he is doing his job…I love me some KAt WIlliams….Alot of the things he say could be taken offensive towards white ppl…i mean The man comes hard…and it does be funny…His last two stand up comedy dvd was very offensive…but we laughed…hey…it is what it is…Don’t take everything to heart…
This just goes to show that a lot of people are still angry at the fact that two beautiful well educated people (for a change) are in the White House and they are just so happen to be Black. A lot of people will not let that go. What Jay said, was it racist??? In my opinion I don’t think so. Was it funny? ABSOLUTLEY NOT!!!! Jay hasn’t said anything funny in years. Now to the angry person that said where were we when people were talking about the previous first ladies I don’t know, but I don’t know that some of them were laughable. None of them were half as beautiful and elegant as the First Lady and no one compared them to a man. Come look a Barbara Bush she looks like George Washington. Jay is just a lil white guy (with shortcomings) that feels inferior to an educated beautiful POWERFUL Black woman. He’s not by himself there are millions of Jays out there.
Anyone who listens to jim rome and the smack off contests you know that your objective is to say the most outrageous comment. However there is a fine line in this instance between offensive humorous comments and racism. GET OVER WHITE PEOPLE WE ARE IN THE WHITEHOUSE NOW. AND YOU KNOW HOW NEGROES GET WE TAKE OVER.
Just as Jamie Foxx should have left Miley Cyrus of his
I do agree that a lot of that stuff he could of left out of his act though.
Im srry folks but he’s a comedian. Yeah we could scream racism in this case but so can the White ppl for what jamie foxx said about Miley Cyrus(Hannah Montana). The whole thing was a joke. He’s a comedian. We cannot very well defend Jamie for what he did saying well he’s a comedian and then get upset at this comedian for his comments. Take it the same way…he’s a comedian. If it’s out of line for a White comedian to talk about Black ppl then it should be out of line for Black ppl to talk about White ppl in that case.
How f’ing rude and ignorant?!!!… someone should step on his face and cut out his tongue!
Awwww, does Mr. Mohr want some attention? Po baby. Do you feel small because you’re not 5′10? Awwwww, him need a hug. Or more importantly him need a laugh. You poor thing, has no one laughed at you since your mom laughed at your jokes in pre-k? Awwwww, some one give that poor thing some sugga. lmao, what a joke of an existence.
