SternĀ plays the role Danson and performs a back-and-forth with his longtime black sidekick Robin Quivers. Stern is sitting besides actor Sherman Hemsley who plays Whoopi, whom Stern repeatedly addresses as a āsmelly nigger.ā
āDonāt be all racially offended because Whoopi all wrote āem for me,ā Stern says after the audience is shocked by his joke.
āWhat does ya call a black rocket scientist?ā Stern then asks Quivers. āA niggerā¦ Whoopi wrote it Whoopi wrote it,ā he says.
āI want ya to give us a kiss you smelly cock head coon,ā he tells Quivers at one point.
The footage made waves on social media. Many using have taken exception to Sternās previousĀ attacksĀ on Trump supporters as āmoronsā whoĀ shouldĀ ādrop deadā by taking disinfectant.
Over at Forbes, writer Seth CohenĀ saysĀ āThere is no question Stern needs to make a complete and genuine apology for the skit, and perhaps other incidents that may surface.ā
Stern is one of many liberals to come under fire for their use of blackface.Ā Other Hollywood figures who have been found to have previously worn blackface include Canadian Prime MinisterĀ Justin Trudeau, comedianĀ Jimmy Fallon, and the Governor of VirginiaĀ Ralph Northam.
