Chris Rock Mocks Meghan Markle’s Racism Claims in Recent Netflix Special
Chris Rock, the renowned comedian, has once again found himself in the spotlight following the infamous incident at the 2022 Oscar Awards.
While the comedian has been making headlines with his remarks about the controversy, he recently took a playful jab at Meghan Markle in his latest Netflix special.
Let's dive into what he had to say about the Duchess of Sussex.
Both Chris Rock and Meghan Markle have been making waves in the media for their respective reasons.
While Meghan Markle has been embroiled in her own family drama, the comedian needs no introduction after the well-known slap controversy.
In his stand-up special, “Selective Outrage,” Chris Rock jokingly addressed Meghan Markle's allegations of racism within the Royal Family.
Referring to Meghan's interview with Oprah Winfrey in April 2021, where she and Prince Harry revealed concerns about their baby's skin tone, Chris Rock quipped, “Oh, they're so racist, they're so racist.
Some of that sh-she went through was not racism.
It was just some in-lawsh,” humorously describing the racism as something that often occurs within families.
Expanding on his point, Chris Rock added, “That's not racist, 'cause even black people want to know how brown the baby gon' be.
Shh, we check behind their ears.”
With this witty remark, he highlighted the curiosity many people have about the physical traits of mixed-race children.
Continuing his humorous critique of Meghan Markle, Chris Rock commented on her interview with Oprah, suggesting that she was pretending to be oblivious to certain aspects.
He exclaimed, “It's the Royal Family.
You didn't Google those, mother.
What the f- she's talking about?
She didn't know?”
Clearly, the comedian did not hold back when it came to poking fun at the Duchess.
But Chris Rock didn't stop at Meghan Markle.
He also took aim at the Kardashian family, jokingly suggesting that marrying into their clan would guarantee acceptance from white in-laws.
“Meghan Markle, I know the dilemma.
I'm like, if you're black and you want to be accepted by your white in-laws, then you need to marry a Kardashian because they accept everybody,” he quipped.
As expected, these comments have sparked mixed reactions among viewers.
While some found Chris Rock's jokes amusing and lighthearted, others criticized him for making light of serious issues such as racism and discrimination.
