re: Shane Gillis Has The Opportunity To Do The Second Funniest Thing Ever

It was Bowen Yang, the gay Asian dude that got him fired. He said publicly he couldn’t work with a racist and it would trigger him

I never saw a public statement, but it was more the news media making assumptions since he was the first Asian cast member. Maybe there is some truth to it, and maybe a source told the media that he was not pleased, but there’s no public statement.

The media did the same shite last week when Chappelle showed up on stage during the credits. They made up some story about Yang being disappointed about Dave’s presence since Yang was standing on the opposite side of the stage from Dave.

On the flip side, if I were Yang and did not care about Gillis or Chappelle, I would be calling out the media for all the bullshite.
