‘ROUND THE WAY: COMEDIAN PAUL MOONEY TALKS CHRIS BROWN & RIHANNA FOR HIS LATEST SHOWTIME COMEDY SPECIAL

February 28th, 2012

Comedian Paul Mooney is known for his brash and unapologetic sense of comedy. Not to mention, the 70 year-old is a comedic legend in the field and has been doing this for years. In his most recent comedy special, “Paul Mooney: The Godfather of Comedy” airing now on Showtime and Showtime on Demand, he speaks on the Chris Brown and Rihanna 2009 incident.

“You black people stop getting this Chris Brown bull-shit twisted and this is not a joke, stop getting it twisted. That girl beat the shit out that boy. She damn neared killed him. He’s lucky to be alive. Them girls from the island, they cute but they violent and they jealous. That’s why that boy bit her, he was scared. You bite when you’re scared.”

    wow!

    Paul Mooney does not play and let’s remember that Rihanna is obviously over the incident because she recorded two songs with Chris. Guilty conscience anyone?

      EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I have west Indian roommates and we talked about the situation and they said west Indian woman do not play they will use all force especially when they are mad or angry. Chris Brown use force just as she did they are BOTH guilty, but I believe Rihanna did more damage than anything, that’s why she came back around, GUILTY Conscious.

      Honey, you and Paul Rooney are 2 ignorant people. Rihanna recording 2 songs with Chris Brown does not diminish how he beat the living crap out of her.

      I agree. I thought I was the only one. I especially lost any respect for him when he was dissing Diana Ross when Tracee Ellis was in the audience.

      Are you serious? This man has been around all these people, so believe me if he dissed he had his reasons. The people who put together these shows, know who they are booking so when the booked Paul Mooney they knew what they were getting. He does not kiss nobodies ass never has never will, that’s why he is not bigger because he tells the truth. Whether you want to hear it or not. You Youngsters kill me dissing people old enough to be ya father. First it was those twitter Nuts Coming after Dr. Maya Angelou. You people need to learn to respect your elders, and if they say something you don’t want to her just let it fall off you back.

      Nah you did not diss him. I just feel like alot these people, like Paul Mooney, Joan Rivers, etc. know these people and call them out on their stuff. I just feel like if you don’t like something or somebody cause of something they say just don’t acknowledge it. Just act as if it does not exist. I was not trying to go in on you anything just making a statement. My apologizes for how you took it.

      The really funny thing is all the media puts out is Rihanna’s statement but they ne’er put out his statement of him getting his ass kicked while driving the car. They were fighting each other!

      Ps Paul Mooney ain’t never lie with his statements!

    I’ve been saying for the longest that Rihanna was beating Chris ass so he started to fight her back and well, the rest is history. We all know Rihanna is crazy as hell, but its also apart of the reason we love her. I’ll always believe she initiated the incident based off her personality. Love Rihanna to death and am glad that regardless of it all she has forgiven him. (Cause he did get in that ass…) #RihannaNavy #TeamBreezy

      First and foremost, speak for yourself with the “we’s”. You’re certainly not speaking for me.

      Second, you can speculate all you want, but reality is you have no idea what happened – and never will – only the two people involved know.

    • nat

      exactly @ troof. i don’t know that girl is “crazy”. i know she looked like she got her ass whipped…and ain’t $hit about that funny. even if she did initiate the physical part of the fight. i don’t condone women putting their hands on men and thinking they’re not gonna get hit back – i have brothers…but there is a such thing as going too far. i agree tho – only the two of them know exactly what happened.

    Paul is ignant!!!..and abuse regardless of who hit whom first is wrong…BUT…Rihanna said this herself..she used to hit him as well..smack in on face and things…again wrong is wrong…but Ri probably hit a lil to hard in that car…and Chris being a man..got madder than usual and got the best of her…I say this though..if THEY are over it..then let it be…if THEY like it I love it!

    He says what we all wanted to say, anytime you leave your car and girl you are fighting in the middle of the street… Just saying he is telling the truth and if you don’t like him don’t watch him. He won’t miss you believe me.

      Chris Brown was suppose to be driving some kind of car with a stick shift. From what the news reported is that he left her there in the street. It just seems like maybe they both had a problem with their hands. I feel like if they weren’t honest they should have been and both gotten thorough help for whatever emotional problems they had. I don’t know, maybe it would have been easier if they were not in the public eye.

    When I first saw this comedy special and Paul Mooney made that statement I started clapping because I had been saying their relationship was volatile from the get- go so to hear somebody else admit it too made me feel a sigh of relief. Two thumbs up Mr. Mooney

    Honestly, deep down in my gut I always felt she had as much to do with that fight as Chris did even though outwardly I would defend her due to ppls tendency to blame the victim( namely females). It would make more sense on why she would have forgiven him so easily than the batter wife theory. I mean they were both very much violent in their relationship. Paul is just speaking what the majority are thinking.

    Some of Pauls jokes are dry, can even be offensive to some folks but he tells it like it is. At tiomes people cant handle the truth especially when it’s delivered to you like Paul Mooney dishes it out. Straight no Chaser.
    What happened with CB & Rhinna should be a lesson to any of these young girls who think that they can put they hands on these boys just because for the most part boys have been raised to not hit girls. SHIT! Imma tell you like this, I raised my daughters that if anyone hits you to hit them back, and to always stand up for yourself cause momma may not always be around. I am raising my Grandsons who are 2 & 4yrs old the same way. I tell them to be respectful of everyone, But if someone hits you, regardless of what gender to hit them back. My momma raised her 4 kids 3 girls & 1 boy the same way. U get as good as you give. Dont start crying cause i hit harder than you do. I mean really.

    I’m shocked by the responses in the comment section but I don’t know why considering African Americans have the highest domestic violence rate in America. We don’t know if Rihanna hit Chris, but assuming she did, yes that would give Chris the right to defend himself but definitely not attack her to the extent we saw in those photo’s. Many abused women have stockholm syndrom and feel the need to defend their attacker. So Rihanna giving Chris a pass doesn’t mean others have to. I feel redemption is available to anyone but has Chris redeemed himself? I think not, unless you consider throwing a chair through a window and haveing hissy fits redemption.

    Speaking for myself, I dont think Rhinna has given CB a pass because she has Stockholm Syndrome. Time has healed all wounds, and she’s has time to relect back on whatever it was that jumped off that night. My point would be that you Do Not put your hands on anyone in a threatening manner and then cry because that person hits you harder than you hit them. I kicked you, But you punched me, How is either one of those actions justifyable.

    Mr. Rooney needs to take one more look at Rihanna’s police photo of her injuries. I’m not a Rihanna fan but what Chris Brown did to that girl he should have served jail time. Mr. Rooney is IGNORANT to say what he said and he made it quite clear that he was seriouse with what he said. He’s a disgrace.

    There’s a reason why boxers need to be in the same weight class…

    Doesn’t matter who hit who first…if you weigh 200 lbs you shouldn’t punch your 120 lb girlfriend in the face. No hate…no excuses…it is what it is…

    And since the incident Chris Brown has done the craziest shit, but I keep seeing people posting how crazy Rihanna is…I guess she’s the one snatchin peoples phones and throwing chairs out the window…
