Trevor Noah didn’t run through and delete his old tweets before he was announced as Jon Stewart‘s successor. As a result, he had to suffer the backlash…
You may already be familiar with the name Chet Haze. If not, prepare to be annoyed: Chet Haze: White and Purple That, friends, is the hardest rapper in the game, Chester Hanks, aka Tom Hanks’ son, aka Chet straight outta muthaf–kin’ Malibu Haze! We already knew that Chet is an embarrassment to Hanks and his wife (as he should be) but now it seems that the rest of the world is catching on to what a human facepalm this kid is. It seems Chet’s been taking a lot of flak this week, as a result of an interview on Eminem’s Sirius station in which the DJ and callers positively tore him a new one. (“You’re not Tom Hanks. You just came out of Tom Hanks’ d-ck,” is our favorite quote.) Like the rest of the world, Howard Stern found this hilarious and decided to crack a few jokes at Chet’s expense: Howard Stern on Chet Haze Actually pretty tame by Stern standards, but Chet wasn’t havin’ it, G! The former Mr. Chester Marlon Hanks went off on Stern in a lengthy Twitter rant, in which he promised the radio icon, “I am going to see you in person, and I am going to hurt you.” He went on to blast Stern’s show as “LAME FUCKING YUPPIE HUMOR!” Yes, the son of Tom Hanks’ son (whose name, again, is Chester) is calling other people yuppies. The worst part of this whole thing is that Chet Haze is fresh from rehab so he can’t even blame his idiocy on drugs. Stern has yet to publicly respond to the fact that he now has beef with the realest thug in Beverly Hills, but we imagine he’ll address Chester’s complaints on his show tomorrow. 17 Most Intelligent Rappers in the Game 1.

Trevor Noah has taken to Twitter in order to combat an uproar over his past use of Twitter. The heretofore little-known South African comedian has been constantly in the news over the last 48 hours, first for being named the next host of The Daily Show and then for people scrambling to answer one simple question: Who the heck is Trevor Noah?!? This question took them to Twitter, where they happened upon a series of online jokes from many years ago that don’t exactly paint women or Jewish people in a positive light. “Almost bumped a Jewish kid crossing the road. He didn’t look b4 crossing but I still would hav felt so bad in my german car!” read one Noah Tweet, while another quoted “fat chicks” as thinking: Oh yeah the weekend. People are gonna get drunk & think that I’m sexy! Comedy Central released a statement in defense of Noah , arguing that he “pushes boundaries” and should not be judged on a “handful of jokes.” And now Trevor Noah has come out and passed along a similar message. “To reduce my views to a handful of jokes that didn’t land is not a true reflection of my character, nor my evolution as a comedian,” he Tweeted this evening in response to the scandal. What do you think, readers? Forgive and forget Noah? Or fire and frown upon? Trevor Noah Bio: Who is the New Daily Show Host? 1.

I guess this is not the “fall of Mugabe” that the world was waiting for, but we’ll take it! #MugabeFalls pic.twitter.com/FHWUJKww7C — Trevor Noah (@Trevornoah) February 5, 2015 And while the dictator has since asked that the photos be deleted, Twitter got a hold of them and hilariously spurned them into memes via the #MugabeFalls and #Mugabeing hash tags.
