Comedian Chris Rock on Saturday mocked Jussie Smollett, who has been at the center of a firestorm regarding his claim that he was the victim of a hate crime, asking, "What the hell was he thinking?"
"They said no Jussie Smollett jokes. Yeah, I know. I know. What a waste of light skin. You know what I could do with that light skin? That curly hair? My career would be out of here. F---ing running Hollywood," Rock said.
"What the hell was he thinking?" the comedian added. "You’re Jessie from now on. You don’t even get the 'u' no more. That 'u' was respect. You ain't getting no respect from me."
