Chevy Chase Pulls Out a Racist Slur from His Pocket Full of Hawthornes on the Set of Community
CelebritiesDirt BagChevy Chase, that bottomless asshole of a comedic actor, has once again made it quite clear that he doesn’t want to be a part of Community, not by ruining everyone’s secret trampoline or pushing Fat Neil to the brink of suicide, but by dropping the N-word with a capital N and a resounding forehead slap during a rant about how Pierce Hawthorne’s racist shtick isn’t funny anymore. In an apparent effort to illustrate just how unfunny, Chase let slip a bit of premium cable racism as he expressed his dissatisfaction with the direction in which writers have been steering his Community character, suggesting that they might soon have Pierce call Troy or Shirley…well, you see where this is going.
According to the initial report from Deadline, Chase “apologized immediately” to castmembers Donald Glover and Yvette Nicole Brown, but, if you can believe it, nobody’s too pleased with Chase right now, least of all Brown, who tweeted thusly after the incident: “I have the gift of walking away. Always have. #ThatIsAll.” [E!, Deadline]
