I Love Chelsea she so rude its funny, if anything she'd be more accepted in the UK than in the US

[supernoodles!]

I don`t think she would If anything were too politically correct in this country.She would just not get away with that.

Wow she's honest!! She would probably be sacked if this was in the UK.

[MrGaryy]

the only reason she gets away with it is because her show is on some crappy cable network.

Yeah, it's called 'comedy', not 'racism'.

No, most Americans are bible bashers and this show is on a digital channel in the US where about 0.5 million watch it, in the UK it would get on ITV (late night) and would probably get 2 million viewers

oh I forgot to laugh,they should give this woman her own show in the UK and see how many people find it comical then

Do you laugh when black people take the piss out of white people by saying we can't dance? Is it not the same. It's comedy based on stereotyping. God, you are so sensitive.

You should listen to some of the really good black comedians. They use 'white' jokes all the time, and it's still funny.


Edit to add: I love how you brought Jade into your argument. If you find Chelsea offensive, how exactly does that make Jade's situation any better?

[lily.]

Nina, I think people are over-sensitive these days. I feel sorry for comedians, cuz it seems like they can't say anything about anything without some PC-mad viewer taking offence.

[Harry!]

That's america for you but they do get iffy about swaring after the watershed.

[Tom]

I want her to come over here and do a chat show

[lily.]

But it's not americans who are complaining. It appears to be a white English person who is.

Chris Rock: "You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon"."

Eddie Murphy: "White people can't dance. I'm not being racist it's true. Just like when white people say black people have big lips, it's not racist it's true. Black people have big lips, white people can't dance. Some brothers will be in the club and white people are like, "What are those ******* doing in here?" They watchin' y'all dance. And thy're like, "Look at these crazy mutha****as." Y'all be stepping on people's feet and hitting one another."

Agreed.

And i found this pretty funny.

[lily.]

I posted two examples of black comedians with white jokes in the post above yours Ben. I'm sure someone will complain that it's offensive though.

I used Chris Rock & Eddie Murphy because they are comedy genius. Both of them have me in stitches with their jokes, even if they are about white people like me.


Edit to add: Tom: I like her dry delivery. She's marmite though. Not everyone will like her style. I think Jonathan Ross is funny, whereas some people find him offensive. My advice is.. if you don't like it, switch it off.

[30stone]

Im sure people would complain about this guy if they had heard of him.

He was on live at the apollo.

I'm just about to watch your clip Ben. This clip had me rolling with laughter and I'm Scottish!!

[30stone]

Hes funny but a lot of people find him edgy im sure.

i never really like much mcintyre and cant watch because am watching tv with brother so cant turn sound up.

My point is look at the uproar caused by jades so called racist comments ,compare it to this ,there is no difference in terms of racism.

Also I think you need to read my first post again,at what point did I say I found it offensive.I`m simply questioning wether it would be found racist and what sort of reaction it would recieve if it was aired in the UK.

She feels the need to mention Jade in at least one post per day.
