Richard Pryor’s Daughter Rain Says Black Folks Who Actually Believe Her Father Smashed Brando Are The Reason Trump Is In Office

Richard Pryor’s Daughter Blasts Quincy Jones And Everyone Who Believes Him Richard Pryor’s daughter is fed up with everyone sipping her deceased father’s “tea” by way of Quincy Jones’ loose lips in his recent interview with Vulture. Rain Pryor says that Quincy Jones is losing his mind in his old age and seeking attention by regurgitating old tired rumors about her father’s sexual proclivities, and his widow is only “validating” it out of hate for her deceased husband and a desire for legitimacy. Rain doesn’t believe the stories about her father one bit, and thinks you’re foolish and gullible if you DO. As she told the world off in a recent facebook post: All you who touted Faux News and preach about wanting blacks to be represented in a great light and then posted Q’s interview are irrelevant and full of your own BS. Q, was once a brilliant music producer who is losing his mind, and decided to garner publicity for himself with a sensationalized interview; and because y’all think and equate Fame and Money with decency, you ate it up like thirsty dogs, as he spewed out a lie about my father who’s not here to defend himself. Then on top of it all, my dad’s so-called widow validated it, because she needs to keep legitimizing herself and tarnish our dad even after he’s dead. She hated Q and Daddy. Y’all so thirsty and LOVE THEM but ever know the real source or full story, and you’re gonna wonder how 45 became president? WAKE UP!!! So read this, I don’t need you as a fan or a friend. I don’t need anyone in my life that thinks a sensationalized interview is relevant and “incredibly well done.” People who lie or share information to raise themselves up are bottom feeders no matter how much money or influence they have. Wrong is still wrong!!! #GTFOH I’m getting my millions the correct way, with integrity!!!! That’s all well and good, and we understand her reluctance to believe salacious details about her late father’s intimate sexual life…but we think there’s a strong chance her father’s wife and peers had a bit more firsthand knowledge about that side of her father than his little girl likely ever would. Besides, Pryor said he had dalliances with men out of his own mouth — on MORE than one occasion: Of course, the dead can’t speak for themselves. We can all agree that Quincy probably needn’t spill any tea but his own at this point in life… Getty/Facebook

Earlier we reported on Quincy Jones ‘ explosive Vulture interview where he claims that “The Godfather” actor Marlon Brando had sex with James Baldwin, Marvin Gaye and comedian Richard Pryor. Well, now TMZ is reporting that Pryor’s widow can confirm for a fact that this is not a case of Quincy Jones stirring the rumor mill. She says Pryor was indeed having sex with Brando. Jennifer, Richard’s ex wife, says Richard wouldn’t be ashamed one bit of what Quincy said. She says the icon was very open about the fact that he was bisexual when speaking to friends and family. She even says that he chronicled his sexual trysts with men in several diaries that will be published this year. Here’s what Jennifer says explicitly about the Brando affair: “It was the ’70s! Drugs were still good, especially quaaludes. If you did enough cocaine, you’d f*** a radiator and send it flowers in the morning.” *blinking white man.GIF* The thought of Marlon Brando telling Richard Pryor to bust that bussy open has me on the floor. — king crissle (@crissles) February 7, 2018 More reactions.

Adam Sandler, Chris Rock Talk Richard Pryor Biopic

‘It’s all being worked on,’ Sandler tells MTV News, after losing director Bill Condon to ‘Breaking Dawn.’ By Eric Ditzian Chris Rock and Adam Sandler Photo: MTV News Richard Pryor died in 2005 at the age of 65, leaving behind a legacy of legendary comedy — and equally legendary debauchery. He was the guy a generation of stand-up comedians modeled themselves after, and he was the guy whose long-standing drug abuse — including a frightening incident in which he lit himself on fire while freebasing cocaine — stood as a warning to rising comics about the dangers of addiction and fame. Two of the comedians who rose to prominence in the decades after Pryor’s trailblazing comedic stylings, Adam Sandler and Chris Rock , are deep in development as the producers of “Richard Pryor: Is It Something I Said?” a biopic about the funnyman. Eddie Murphy circled the Pryor role at one point, and before his death, Pryor himself anointed Mike Epps (“The Hangover”) as the guy for the part. But the gig eventually went to Marlon Wayans. Why? Rock had some answers. “Marlon Wayans, he did a screen test and it was just unbelievable,” Rock told MTV News recently. “It’s not just doing the comedy of Richard Pryor. He captures the vulnerability of Richard Pryor.” Long attached to helm the project, director Bill Condon should begin shooting “Is It Something I Said?” in the fall. But now that Condon has signed on to direct the conclusion of the two-part “Twilight Saga,” “Breaking Dawn” — also this fall — things seem to be getting complicated. Is Condon still on board? Will Sandler and Rock get their project off the ground? “Hopefully, soon,” Sandler said. “It’s all being worked on. Hopefully soon.” What do you think of Marlon Wayans playing iconic comedian Richard Pryor? Would you have cast another actor? Let us know in the comments!
