She’s holding his hand like a weirdo she missed some social cues there Dave ain’t that guy for that I know he was uncomfortable having his hand held like that
So glad to see you promoting Patrice and how he saw right through the entertainment industry. He was my favorite comedian by a mile and a brilliant thinker. RIP
Kevin showed up for a surprise set in Philly one weeknight in November 2021 to try out new material. He started lecturing the crowd about how black people are still being held back by white people. A filthy rich black man was saying this to a crowd of broke white Philadelphians. When the audience started to turn against him, he doubled down, telling some white guy in the front row- and I quote- "as a black man, I don't have the same economic opportunities as you." I almost got kicked out for yelling, "you're a millionaire!" at him in immediate response. No cap. He bombed pretty hard that night. 🤷♀
I dont think the "wearing the dress" is linked to being woke. I think it's an answer to the question, "How much control do we have over this person?" It seems from that point, it's a matter of boiling the frog.
Totally agree. This video seemed to miss the point that Patrice and Chappelle were making. The narrator claimed "I don't think Kevin shot to super stardom because he wore the dress". That's not the argument. Kevin didn't become a star because he wore the dress, he was allowed to become a star because he was willing to debase himself, meaning he's willing to take orders and do whatever his handlers demand. It's not about the dress, it's about compliance and showing that your'e willing to play the game. Chappelle refused to wear the dress and the media has been trying to cancel him for years. Fortunately Chappelle is extremely talented and despite the best efforts of media hacks, people are willing to support Dave and attend his shows proving that he doesn't need the Hollywood system to be successful. He's built a loyal audience that will follow him regardless of the garbage that's written about him in the press. Unfortunately Patrice passed away but I suspect he would have been on the same career track as Chappelle by side stepping Hollywood and touring theaters for his fan base as the media continously tired to cancel him.
Hollywood isn't too fond of celebrities not towing the company line. In today's day and age, there's no possible way for it not to be linked with being woke.
Back in the day only men could be actors so they would play make and female roles. Its a throw back to Vaudeville shows. Also it may seem corny to our generation but it makes boomers Crack up.

@@chickengenius4202in my opinion Dave was 19 and I believe spoke on the fact he was so young and wasn’t aware but once he was he refused it. Also, he wasn’t some big actor getting ready to blow and didn’t blow right after or because of this movie. Just somethings to think about if the dress theory is true. I don’t believe it due to some really great comedians that bucked the system who wore a dress including white ones. Many of the greats did.
i think a big difference between that movie and the typical “snl” scene is that in “men in tights” every guy in the scene is wearing a dress, and it’s more for laughs not humiliation. whereas it seems more of an isolated thing with snl
@@kitten-whisperernah, the way she phrased her sh*t was to essentially say, "hollywood isn't the problem Dave, you just couldn't handle the pressure." Hence why Dave was so hesitant to agree with her
I would have to say yes; he's a sellout solely based on how many commercials he does. On the Joe Rogan podcast (the very same episode you're showing clips of with Kevin in the blue hoodie), Kevin actually did a sneaky commercial for Beyond Meat during the interview. Joe was unaware Kevin was a paid sponsor and shat all over the product because he's not a fan of plant-based meat. Kevin was scrambling so hard to try to defend it. 😆 You must watch. It's at the 48 minute mark.
The way they used to get you in television: they would get you to paint yourself into a corner of luxury. THEN they would start to dictate, because they knew that you feared losing that money. So you’d give up your independence and go along with them. It was threats to your security and kudos to your ego, that’s how they operated. - Jackie Gleason And he was talking about show business in 1955. This is an old, old game.
That dynamic Patrice is talking about is 100% there. They get you with the golden handcuffs, then pressure you to do things you aren't really okay with. Little by little erode away the things you won't do. I wouldn't doubt the dress is a part of that culture. Kevin is right they don't specifically say "You're going to wear this dress or else" because they don't have to. Patrice has another story about getting some roles from Spike Lee, real nice, giving Him spots, shine. Then one day Spike asked for a favor, didn't mention what it was but for whatever the reason the answer was "Sorry can't help you with this one". After that, completely ghosted. No more calls, no more roles, no more shine.
and its easy because only dumb/desperate/insecure people want to be in show business so theyre like the easiest people to take advantage of for the most part
Spike Lee has always been a tool. He’s made some solid movies, but the guys a tool. Similar to Jordan Peele. Except Spike Lee is a legitimately talented filmmaker while Peele is a hack.
@@HiGlowieidk it seemed like Patrice was in the wrong on that one. I could’ve sworn he even admitted that it was his own fuck up that burned that bridge and he regretted that.
@@HiGlowiemy mom was a flight attendant for Spike and Denzel. She said Denzel was kind, polite and a real gentleman. She said Spike was a pretentious, self important asshole.
I hate the cognitive dissonance that comes with the common people only accepting a "conspiracy theory" once the media has reinforced the actual conspiracy as true. No one accepts patterns and obvious truth as such until the people doing the shit admits to it blatantly, then pushes it off on a single person.

Patrice, Keith Robinson and Di Paolo were the main comedians always to warn other comics that comedians should never have to sell their souls to the powers that be. You will always have a career as a stand up. You don’t need Hollywood. Unfortunately Kevin never took their advice.
And it's just as well as Hart is way more successful than any of them. Do you think he'd ever want to trade places with Keith Robinson or Nick Di Paolo?
@@terrycullen3302 Kevin loves all those guys. Keith and Patrice mentored him. He certainly thinks a lot highly of them than you do. And if Patrice was alive today he would give him the verbal pounding that he desperately needs.
Di Paolo has never warned anybody about anything. I'll take Jim David over Patrice's cliche clinic. Every stereotype coming from a couch wearing a Jim Plunkett jersey.
Chapelle sounds like his pleading to Oprah and she just will not engage him on that level. She feigns supportive words in a supportive tone but behind her eyes is no understanding for him
When Kevin says that no one was forced to wear the dress, its a non answer. Its really a diversion because the point isnt that people were made to do it, but a choice made to further ones career. I think the elites in Hollywood wouldnt want renegades in the industry. They are there to make money and walking the line will do that.
@@CahirMawrGenuinely Americans are fucked ahah. Men wearing women’s clothes as a joke is a thing since ancient Egypt. Hollywood is filled with rapists and peadophiles and horrible people but wearing a dress is just a dogshit joke that gets cheap laughs. 50 years ago this wouldn’t even be a discussion but because of the trans stuff people think wearing a dress is some conspiracy. Why do you all think they leave these breadcrumb trails for geniuses like you to pick up on? Like either they are incompetent in their conspiracies and these signs are an accident or they do these things to intentionally bait you in. If they are controlling Kevin hart you know what’s actually effective in breaking him down? Raping him or threatening his life in private, both things actually done by governments to control people, not giving out public signals through media ahahh. Fuck me actually love learning the shit you guys think.
As Patrice said, they got you by golden handcuffs. People like Joe Rogan don't make $100 mill and not "owe" a favor. If you don't play, they will replace you by another kiss ass
a male celebrity complaining to oprah winfrew about anti-masculinity/forced emasculation in hollywood is like an african-american slave running to a n@ zi to complain about the kkk. 🤷🏽♂
But why was he asked? Kat's thoughts are deranged but also funny enough for many to overlook that and kind of believe them. Meanwhile Kevin Hart was not funny at all in response - he sounded like a frustrated substitute teacher.@@DefeatLust
I would whole heartedly disagree that Kat is funnier. I've never found Kat to be funny in the least, and while Hart's standup isn't great, he is really fun in his movie roles IMO.
you know what i like about you 2L2T? you are willing to respect your comedic idols as well as be cautious & critical of what they say. there's a real level of diligence there to just not kowtow to your favourite comedians. another killer vid bud
The real tale of selling your soul is the manufactured apology letter. Especially from a comedian. Like Kevin. He apologized 100 times each one as manufactured as the next bcuz his handlers made him. Too much money on the line. They need to know you will comply with ANYTHING.
Kevin was funny for about 15 minutes and now he’s something different. He may lie to himself that he’s something more now. But at night alone in bed, he knows he took the money over artistic integrity and character
Agreed. Only reason I watched this was to see if anything changed. The last time I watched him was "Let me explain" and I realized he has a gag of writers always doing the same exact comedy. He's one of those "actors" that just plays himself in all his movies. Wtf does he do besides play Kevin Hart?
Dave Chapelle wore a dress in Robinhood Men in Tights. but he wasn’t really famous at the time, and i think most comedians would wear anything to be in a Mel Brooks movie
He did but it seems a little different than the "black man comedian in a dress" thing. It was exactly what Dave had said when he was asked to do it on SNL and he said that being in a dress wasn't really necessary for the skit. In Robin Hood it isn't just him in the dress (2 or 3 other white dudes I think) and it was an element of the plot. It wasn't just for no reason.
I have to respectfully disagree - it was a funny part of him (and the other men) in dresses, well-acted, and you can tell it wasn't done to point him out amongst everyone else as "Hey look Dave is wearing a dress!" Here it is clear that Kevin was chosen as a sacrificial lamb to Insider Hollywood, and he went with it.
The dress theory is true. Also, you do a great job at referencing Patrice O’Neill, quotes or lines. There was an episode of Opie and Anthony where Kevin Hart was in studio and Patrice called in and Patrice is genuinely asking like how did Kevin get so famous? I’m trying to figure it out he was just little Kev a little bit ago, and then he called him a pickpocket. Something definitely happened where Kevin was anointed one and it was not based on his talent.😊
Patrice was brilliant!! he was the perfect insider to show us the degeneracy of that world. even ruthless comedians like Bill Burr feared his sharp tongue. I think the only reason he didnt rise that far is entirely because you can't buy him. RIP
Yup. It is scary with how things are going so many kids are doing that very ritual everyday. I am a firm believer that magic and spells are real and they are used to hypnotize the population
I used to believe the dress thing was just a hacky and easy bit for executives to use but its weird how much they push for it so much, specifically with african american males.
Lmao isn't it way more likely that Hollywood execs just want to repeat tropes that have already proven to be successful, you know, like they always do?
I looked up this dress stuff some time back and it was interesting, but I don’t think the dress thing is some actual “step” of some kind for many of same reasons you mentioned here. But, the IDEA of being pushed to do something you don’t want to do and if you refuse, they’ll toss you out, that’s definitely true. Keep in mind that kind of environment is present in other places besides Hollywood. You’ll see it companies with 3, 300, or 300,000 thousand employees too. It’s a prime example of whoever is at the top is given the power to control more things and they also tend to be out of touch. That said, Hollywood is like a massive, multi headed monster because many of these entities are so closely related to each other, you could make a mistake with one director and all of the sudden none of them want to work with you. And while some directors (as an example) are fantastic people, some are perverted scum bags and yet, if you don’t play ball, the others will blacklist you too. And because many of these people know each other and may be just as perverted, they won’t call each other out e.g. Kevin Spacey and Bill Cosby stuff was an open secret. I don’t think it’s a “Hollywood problem” because this kind of environment exists elsewhere. Hollywood IS the problem - which is much worse. If Hollywood had a problem, that implies it could be fixed, but I think Hollywood has become a cesspool for this kind of stuff and now it’s just in a vicious cycle. There needs to be a “new” movie industry to go to but, I doubt that will ever happen. Although, platforms like UA-cam, etc. make it so you don’t have to go through Hollywood to become big artists anymore.
One of my most favorite Joe Rogan episodes was Kevin Hart's first appearance on there. He talked about how it's not impossible for anyone, esp. in the black community to achieve financial stability.. and how he's trying to educate these inner city kids about basic financial literacy. 😊😊
24:05 Kat Williams never did any drugs except weed. Kevin is making Kat seem like a hardcore druggy. Kevin is making stuff up because he called out for wearing a dress. Hollywood did Kat like they did Chappelle. People always forget that Kat called out Hollywood during one of his specials when he joked about “going to a Hollywood party”. Kat Williams was calling out Hollywood before the Kevin hart dress thing even happened. He’s not salty about Kevin hart taking his “spot”.
Sick of hearing Dave talk about everything about the black man. When in reality the only thing that is truly real is antiwhitism. But of course nobody gives a shit to mention that. Including Dave Chappelle
I really appreciate that you kept in full clips of these different comedians, rather than taking it out of context by assuming your audience has no attention span
The dress thing is weird to me but it has bene around a while, wearing a dress as a male actor is considered some form of humiliation by some groups. Obviously its a masculinity thing and that is especially important to black folks. While I get their point somewhat, cross dressing has been in theatre since wayyy before Shakespeare. Its something actors do, its part of a role, not much different from wearing a prosthetic.
I agree w/you that kevin has worked hard enough to be famous on his own accord, and that he's earned it. But the graveyard of Hollywood is littered with extremely talented people who were very gifted but weren't as pliable. The dress was kevin's chance to show he was pliable enough to be suited for Hollywood. Just look at the music industry. Are some of these clowns that are at the top of the charts now truly the best voices? Not a chance, but they are pliable and have done 'something' to prove they'll move in the direction the industry wind is blowing.
Hard work does not equal talent. Hes manic and painfully unfunny, and got this far by selling out hard. Any man that needs to assuage his own ego and personal validity by incessantly tweeting about how much money they've made and how they're a workaholic has unresolved personal issues 🤣
@@benshabaan A guess is a pretty dumb way to argue but ok. Dane Cook was huge in his time I was too young to remember though, Matt Rife never heard of him and both together are no way close to what Kevin Hart has achieved
It’s definitely a hollyweird humiliation ritual. At least he’s a multimillionaire bc of it. Think about how many fruit cakes are wearing dresses tonight for Halloween. For free 😂

I lived in Hollywood for 6 years. It’s definitely a weird place with a lot of shady stuff going on but you gotta love all of the Jim and Johns from Minnesota in the comment section claiming to know exactly how the entertainment business works. Keep working on those UA-cam university degrees
Kevin hart has never once made me laugh. I've mostly just seen him on sports shows. I don't think much of his sports analysis either. It does seems like the powers that be are cramming him down our throats.
yes he did no one can make it to the top without been on their timing. just look at Tyler perry he started dressing as a old black woman and now he is a billionaire and own a studio
Dressing up as a woman, as Chris Rock explained, is a cheap way to get a laugh. Tyler Perry is a billionaire because there's a lot of people out there looking for a cheap laugh. It's not a test, it's literally just what it takes to get to the top; you gotta appeal to a wide audience and in comedy that means nuanced jokes fly out the window. It's hard to think of many "sophisticated" or "artful" comedies that were widespread successes. Chappelle was suspicious because he's a black man in America, they're raised to be suspicious of white folk. Especially white folk with power. That caused him to have tunnel vision and think it's a black thing rather than just a comedy thing. Shakespeare had his comic actors do it for christ's sake.
i dont think its really about the reach of their humor, I think what @hengoku really means is that their getting being nicely cause they are degrading the blackman in america. Its like an agenda push. or at least thats what I got of it @@sozeytozey
@@sozeytozey yeah male actors wearing dresses for cheap laughs has existed for the longest of times across loads of cultures but yet blacks see the topic through race cause its happening to them along with everybody else now lol
Lmao so much extrapolation usually 2lazy2try doesn't pander to the crazier members of his audience but it seems things have changed. Isn't it way more likely that Hollywood execs just want to be lazy and steal tired ass tropes like "hurr durr masculine dude is wearing a dress" particularly because of stuff like Tyler Perry's movies and their success?
The part about wearing dresses, it's called a Humiliation Ritual actually. It shows they have the power to make you do whatever they want. Black comedians low-key have known about this problem for a while. Shia labeouf went through similar humiliation rituals in recent years, pretty sure it's a form of punishment but idk
I think part of the reason why Patrice didn't sell out was that he knew how short his life was going to be, and he knew his life was going to be short based on the demons he had to fight, which he self-medicated with his eating habit. He saw Chris Farley and he knew he could've had millions but it would've drastically shortened a very short life, so he doesn't to live his life the way he wanted to.
Don’t ever change this exact style of video you do no matter how many subs you get. This is what we want I love you’re videos and the main thing is the fact you won’t be controlled just like Chappelle
There are people who get off (not necessarily sexually) on the image of a black man in a dress. It’s an implicit role inversion, a subversive kink that certain “intellectual” types obsess over. I’m not saying that these characters are responsible in this instance, but they have an overbearing presence in Hollywood. It’s the same mindset as race-swapping canonically white characters to black, male roles to female, etc. These people genuinely believe it’s some sort of revolutionary act (it’s just obnoxious, antisocial behavior). When you’re a midwit with nothing to say, controversy is necessarily your bread and butter.
This is some schizo posting. Yeah, there are ppl attracted to men in dresses. Nobody is forcing Kevin Hart to wear a dress tho lol. And it's not even a big deal either, who gives a f if a dude wears a dress? Comic actors have cross-dressed for literally decades, nothing remotely knew, it just has a political connotation now.
I gotta call b.s. on some of Chappelle's philosophical points. I'm a fan, and I know he lives in a small Ohio community. But through numerous anecdotes, I've heard he basically does what he wants when he wants. That might seem admirable in some instances, but there becomes a point where where he no longer lives like the rest of society, and it's no flattering. Lighting up to smoke inside a comedy club when there is a policy against it shows a lack of respect for the venue and the people around. I wouldn't care if he smoked inside but him simply doing that shows that he thinks he has earned the right to do whatever he wants. I don't think he is a bad person but I do think his unsolicited mentor character is getting a little old. No one wants to get preached at by a multi millionaire, especially one who can't follow simple rules that the rest of us heathens abide by.
I’m comedy you earn rights at clubs. I smoke at my regular club in Columbus on my sets. Just have to be a regular and liked by the owners and people who go to the club. It’s not cause he’s a celebrity it’s because he’s respected.
Why would he want to be like the rest of society? The rest of society are bunch of spineless cowards who do what they're told when they're told. Have a real think about what you just wrote and realise that your soul has been crushed by society. Dave is a free man, something that many of us want but few of us have the balls to do
If you're a cigarette smoker, smoking a cigarette calms you down and helps you focus, which is definitely useful when you're on stage. Trying to tell jokes, just like other comics have a drink on stage. Plus rules are for us poor's If you have money, any rule that doesn't involve jail Time doesn't even matter.
smoking inside is a bad example, it seems like a huge taboo for you because you weren't alive when it was allowed or you havent been to other countries. you can smoke in bars in the south. its just a cigarette
Comedy clubs and comedy fans don’t respect Dave because of the money, it is because he is a comedy legend. I imagine there are a lot of people richer and more powerful than Dave who couldn’t get away with that.
The entire entertainment industry is compromised- comedy, film and tv, music of all genres, SPORTS, even the big streamers and youtubers... These people are evil for real
You do have to "sell your soul" to get in in high levels of all industries, they're not gonna give a platform and millions to people who got values, integrity, their own mind and speak up against the mainstream media, big pharma, etc. I remember applying to film school. I was asked if I'd make changes if the producers demanded it. I said that I could compromise on some stuff, but I would respect the core project. I didn't get in. I felt like they wanted someone willing to do anything, someone they could mould and claim they "created". Once I realized that the heads of most producing companies were abusive jerks it was a wrap for me.
How would you know? You didn't even make it into school let alone onto the "high levels". That is definitely NOT the reason you were rejected. How arrogant and pompous to think you should be given full control over something made with other peoples money, made by other people who's career and ability to feed their families will be dependent on your ability to recoup costs. Just because you know how to color correct an image in no way makes you knowledgeable on running a business and the responsibility that comes with it. From your comment I wouldn't even give you $5 to video a wedding.
There are countless independent film makers who showed their competence and moved into the "highest levels" And they didn't cry about not getting handed a million dollars and a production company to do all the work for them. They just went out and figured it out for themself, proving to the studios they can be trusted with the power you feel entitled to...
@@FedSmoker64 I'm not crying. I realized I don't have the personality or temperament for that industry. Going independent is an option but it can be hard to get started if you don't have money set aside or know how things work, people can begin by making shorts and posting them on youtube. All they need is a decent phone camera.
@@FedSmoker64 My issue is more when people reach out to you, saying they like X work from you. Then once they got you locked in, they try to change everything about whatever you pitched to them. Established people and new people have gone through situations like this. I'm not delusional about my work. I submitted projects and had to pitch. I had better luck doing projects with people independently or on smaller budgets, not because everything went my way, but because we actually worked together instead of being given notes by people who are not artists, but are trying to emulate whatever's hot at the moment like there's a winning formula.
@@user-dx2dm8oq8g If I'm hiring you, I want you to do it exactly how I want. Go be artistic on your own time and money. If you think you can do it better than go start your own business and then you can tell others how it should be done while you pay for it.
Kevin Hart "Nah you can't wear a dress. You have to protect your brand, it's all you have. I am a brand" Also Kevin "Oh that's funny I'm going to do it"
And Kevin Hart refused the role of "Alpa Chino" in _Tropic Thunder_ because he was a gay character. That's tragic because Kevin Hart would've nailed that role.

Dave did wear a dress. He wore a dress in 'Robin Hood Men In Tights'. Funny he never brings that up.
It's always forgotten
One of my favorite classics from the 90s
At least everyone was wearing tights
Why does everyone forget this?
i think a big difference between that movie and the typical “snl” scene is that in “men in tights” every guy in the scene is wearing a dress, and it’s more for laughs not humiliation. whereas it seems more of an isolated thing with snl

I would have to say yes; he's a sellout solely based on how many commercials he does. On the Joe Rogan podcast (the very same episode you're showing clips of with Kevin in the blue hoodie), Kevin actually did a sneaky commercial for Beyond Meat during the interview. Joe was unaware Kevin was a paid sponsor and shat all over the product because he's not a fan of plant-based meat. Kevin was scrambling so hard to try to defend it. 😆 You must watch. It's at the 48 minute mark.
That’s hilarious ima watch it rn
Hahaha yeah man I remember joe saying you would be better off eating vegetables 🤣
Thanks for the heads up lmao
He is a company man. Everything he said in this video shows that and he is not even hiding it..
Bro the sneaky Beyond Meat commercial was so funny 😂
The way they used to get you in television: they would get you to paint yourself into a corner of luxury. THEN they would start to dictate, because they knew that you feared losing that money. So you’d give up your independence and go along with them. It was threats to your security and kudos to your ego, that’s how they operated. - Jackie Gleason
And he was talking about show business in 1955. This is an old, old game.
This is a highly underrated comment. Not sure how this wasn’t top comment
That dynamic Patrice is talking about is 100% there. They get you with the golden handcuffs, then pressure you to do things you aren't really okay with. Little by little erode away the things you won't do. I wouldn't doubt the dress is a part of that culture. Kevin is right they don't specifically say "You're going to wear this dress or else" because they don't have to. Patrice has another story about getting some roles from Spike Lee, real nice, giving Him spots, shine. Then one day Spike asked for a favor, didn't mention what it was but for whatever the reason the answer was "Sorry can't help you with this one". After that, completely ghosted. No more calls, no more roles, no more shine.
and its easy because only dumb/desperate/insecure people want to be in show business so theyre like the easiest people to take advantage of for the most part
If I did multiple favors for someone , only to come to figure out the feelings aren't mutual, I will be more inclined to stop helping than person out.
Spike Lee has always been a tool. He’s made some solid movies, but the guys a tool.
Similar to Jordan Peele. Except Spike Lee is a legitimately talented filmmaker while Peele is a hack.
@@HiGlowieidk it seemed like Patrice was in the wrong on that one. I could’ve sworn he even admitted that it was his own fuck up that burned that bridge and he regretted that.

Patrice, Keith Robinson and Di Paolo were the main comedians always to warn other comics that comedians should never have to sell their souls to the powers that be. You will always have a career as a stand up. You don’t need Hollywood. Unfortunately Kevin never took their advice.
And it's just as well as Hart is way more successful than any of them. Do you think he'd ever want to trade places with Keith Robinson or Nick Di Paolo?
@@terrycullen3302 Kevin loves all those guys. Keith and Patrice mentored him. He certainly thinks a lot highly of them than you do. And if Patrice was alive today he would give him the verbal pounding that he desperately needs.

Patrice was the greatest social commentator we had, he was 15 years into the future, I listen to his interviews like I am hearing Socrates
The real tale of selling your soul is the manufactured apology letter. Especially from a comedian. Like Kevin. He apologized 100 times each one as manufactured as the next bcuz his handlers made him. Too much money on the line. They need to know you will comply with ANYTHING.
All great comedians know you never apologize unless you did something wrong. Keving constantly apologizing just dogs him deeper in the Hollywood hole.
Patrice was no comedian, no no no...the man was a philosopher poet. And we all laughed because we knew it was true.
We laugh because crying hurts too much.
Speaking the truth can be so outrageous sometimes that we confuse it for comedy.
Kevin was funny for about 15 minutes and now he’s something different. He may lie to himself that he’s something more now. But at night alone in bed, he knows he took the money over artistic integrity and character
Agreed. Only reason I watched this was to see if anything changed. The last time I watched him was "Let me explain" and I realized he has a gag of writers always doing the same exact comedy.

Dave Chapelle wore a dress in Robinhood Men in Tights. but he wasn’t really famous at the time, and i think most comedians would wear anything to be in a Mel Brooks movie
He did but it seems a little different than the "black man comedian in a dress" thing. It was exactly what Dave had said when he was asked to do it on SNL and he said that being in a dress wasn't really necessary for the skit. In Robin Hood it isn't just him in the dress (2 or 3 other white dudes I think) and it was an element of the plot. It wasn't just for no reason.
I have to respectfully disagree - it was a funny part of him (and the other men) in dresses, well-acted, and you can tell it wasn't done to point him out amongst everyone else as "Hey look Dave is wearing a dress!" Here it is clear that Kevin was chosen as a sacrificial lamb to Insider Hollywood, and he went with it.
The dress theory is true. Also, you do a great job at referencing Patrice O’Neill, quotes or lines. There was an episode of Opie and Anthony where Kevin Hart was in studio and Patrice called in and Patrice is genuinely asking like how did Kevin get so famous? I’m trying to figure it out he was just little Kev a little bit ago, and then he called him a pickpocket. Something definitely happened where Kevin was anointed one and it was not based on his talent.😊

I looked up this dress stuff some time back and it was interesting, but I don’t think the dress thing is some actual “step” of some kind for many of same reasons you mentioned here.
But, the IDEA of being pushed to do something you don’t want to do and if you refuse, they’ll toss you out, that’s definitely true. Keep in mind that kind of environment is present in other places besides Hollywood. You’ll see it companies with 3, 300, or 300,000 thousand employees too. It’s a prime example of whoever is at the top is given the power to control more things and they also tend to be out of touch.
That said, Hollywood is like a massive, multi headed monster because many of these entities are so closely related to each other, you could make a mistake with one director and all of the sudden none of them want to work with you. And while some directors (as an example) are fantastic people, some are perverted scum bags and yet, if you don’t play ball, the others will blacklist you too. And because many of these people know each other and may be just as perverted, they won’t call each other out e.g. Kevin Spacey and Bill Cosby stuff was an open secret.
I don’t think it’s a “Hollywood problem” because this kind of environment exists elsewhere. Hollywood IS the problem - which is much worse. If Hollywood had a problem, that implies it could be fixed, but I think Hollywood has become a cesspool for this kind of stuff and now it’s just in a vicious cycle. There needs to be a “new” movie industry to go to but, I doubt that will ever happen. Although, platforms like UA-cam, etc. make it so you don’t have to go through Hollywood to become big artists anymore.
One of my most favorite Joe Rogan episodes was Kevin Hart's first appearance on there. He talked about how it's not impossible for anyone, esp. in the black community to achieve financial stability.. and how he's trying to educate these inner city kids about basic financial literacy. 😊😊

Kid Cudi also showed up on SNL in a dress right after making an Instagram post saying he’s about to blow up and be bigger than ever.
I really appreciate that you kept in full clips of these different comedians, rather than taking it out of context by assuming your audience has no attention span
The dress thing is weird to me but it has bene around a while, wearing a dress as a male actor is considered some form of humiliation by some groups. Obviously its a masculinity thing and that is especially important to black folks. While I get their point somewhat, cross dressing has been in theatre since wayyy before Shakespeare. Its something actors do, its part of a role, not much different from wearing a prosthetic.
Who do you think played the women when they weren't allowed on the stage?
I agree w/you that kevin has worked hard enough to be famous on his own accord, and that he's earned it. But the graveyard of Hollywood is littered with extremely talented people who were very gifted but weren't as pliable. The dress was kevin's chance to show he was pliable enough to be suited for Hollywood. Just look at the music industry. Are some of these clowns that are at the top of the charts now truly the best voices? Not a chance, but they are pliable and have done 'something' to prove they'll move in the direction the industry wind is blowing.

Ty blackman
yes he did no one can make it to the top without been on their timing. just look at Tyler perry he started dressing as a old black woman and now he is a billionaire and own a studio
Dressing up as a woman, as Chris Rock explained, is a cheap way to get a laugh. Tyler Perry is a billionaire because there's a lot of people out there looking for a cheap laugh. It's not a test, it's literally just what it takes to get to the top; you gotta appeal to a wide audience and in comedy that means nuanced jokes fly out the window. It's hard to think of many "sophisticated" or "artful" comedies that were widespread successes. Chappelle was suspicious because he's a black man in America, they're raised to be suspicious of white folk. Especially white folk with power. That caused him to have tunnel vision and think it's a black thing rather than just a comedy thing. Shakespeare had his comic actors do it for christ's sake.

There's a great Opie and Anthoyn clip you can find of Patrice O'Neal talking to Kevin about this very subject. Call him out on his fame hunger.
The belly of the beast talk. Thank you for including one of my all time favorite Patrice clips ever!
I think part of the reason why Patrice didn't sell out was that he knew how short his life was going to be, and he knew his life was going to be short based on the demons he had to fight, which he self-medicated with his eating habit.
He saw Chris Farley and he knew he could've had millions but it would've drastically shortened a very short life, so he doesn't to live his life the way he wanted to.
Notice how Kevin is wearing Sunglasses in the second interview.

Don’t ever change this exact style of video you do no matter how many subs you get. This is what we want I love you’re videos and the main thing is the fact you won’t be controlled just like Chappelle
But, you are trying to control him with this very comment, no?
@@smileyking7749positive encouragement is different to control.
There are people who get off (not necessarily sexually) on the image of a black man in a dress. It’s an implicit role inversion, a subversive kink that certain “intellectual” types obsess over. I’m not saying that these characters are responsible in this instance, but they have an overbearing presence in Hollywood. It’s the same mindset as race-swapping canonically white characters to black, male roles to female, etc. These people genuinely believe it’s some sort of revolutionary act (it’s just obnoxious, antisocial behavior). When you’re a midwit with nothing to say, controversy is necessarily your bread and butter.
This is some schizo posting.
Yeah, there are ppl attracted to men in dresses. Nobody is forcing Kevin Hart to wear a dress tho lol. And it's not even a big deal either, who gives a f if a dude wears a dress? Comic actors have cross-dressed for literally decades, nothing remotely knew, it just has a political connotation now.
I gotta call b.s. on some of Chappelle's philosophical points. I'm a fan, and I know he lives in a small Ohio community. But through numerous anecdotes, I've heard he basically does what he wants when he wants. That might seem admirable in some instances, but there becomes a point where where he no longer lives like the rest of society, and it's no flattering. Lighting up to smoke inside a comedy club when there is a policy against it shows a lack of respect for the venue and the people around. I wouldn't care if he smoked inside but him simply doing that shows that he thinks he has earned the right to do whatever he wants. I don't think he is a bad person but I do think his unsolicited mentor character is getting a little old. No one wants to get preached at by a multi millionaire, especially one who can't follow simple rules that the rest of us heathens abide by.
I’m comedy you earn rights at clubs. I smoke at my regular club in Columbus on my sets. Just have to be a regular and liked by the owners and people who go to the club. It’s not cause he’s a celebrity it’s because he’s respected.
Why would he want to be like the rest of society? The rest of society are bunch of spineless cowards who do what they're told when they're told. Have a real think about what you just wrote and realise that your soul has been crushed by society. Dave is a free man, something that many of us want but few of us have the balls to do
If you're a cigarette smoker, smoking a cigarette calms you down and helps you focus, which is definitely useful when you're on stage. Trying to tell jokes, just like other comics have a drink on stage. Plus rules are for us poor's If you have money, any rule that doesn't involve jail Time doesn't even matter.
smoking inside is a bad example, it seems like a huge taboo for you because you weren't alive when it was allowed or you havent been to other countries. you can smoke in bars in the south. its just a cigarette
Comedy clubs and comedy fans don’t respect Dave because of the money, it is because he is a comedy legend. I imagine there are a lot of people richer and more powerful than Dave who couldn’t get away with that.

The was deep as hell . Didnt expect this from you my g. Great work.
You do have to "sell your soul" to get in in high levels of all industries, they're not gonna give a platform and millions to people who got values, integrity, their own mind and speak up against the mainstream media, big pharma, etc. I remember applying to film school. I was asked if I'd make changes if the producers demanded it. I said that I could compromise on some stuff, but I would respect the core project. I didn't get in. I felt like they wanted someone willing to do anything, someone they could mould and claim they "created". Once I realized that the heads of most producing companies were abusive jerks it was a wrap for me.
How would you know? You didn't even make it into school let alone onto the "high levels".
That is definitely NOT the reason you were rejected.
How arrogant and pompous to think you should be given full control over something made with other peoples money, made by other people who's career and ability to feed their families will be dependent on your ability to recoup costs.
Just because you know how to color correct an image in no way makes you knowledgeable on running a business and the responsibility that comes with it.
From your comment I wouldn't even give you $5 to video a wedding.
There are countless independent film makers who showed their competence and moved into the "highest levels"
And they didn't cry about not getting handed a million dollars and a production company to do all the work for them.
They just went out and figured it out for themself, proving to the studios they can be trusted with the power you feel entitled to...
@@FedSmoker64 I'm not crying. I realized I don't have the personality or temperament for that industry. Going independent is an option but it can be hard to get started if you don't have money set aside or know how things work, people can begin by making shorts and posting them on youtube. All they need is a decent phone camera.
@@FedSmoker64 My issue is more when people reach out to you, saying they like X work from you. Then once they got you locked in, they try to change everything about whatever you pitched to them. Established people and new people have gone through situations like this. I'm not delusional about my work. I submitted projects and had to pitch. I had better luck doing projects with people independently or on smaller budgets, not because everything went my way, but because we actually worked together instead of being given notes by people who are not artists, but are trying to emulate whatever's hot at the moment like there's a winning formula.
@@user-dx2dm8oq8g If I'm hiring you, I want you to do it exactly how I want.
Go be artistic on your own time and money.
If you think you can do it better than go start your own business and then you can tell others how it should be done while you pay for it.
Damn the illuminati got to 2lazy

Kevin Hart "Nah you can't wear a dress. You have to protect your brand, it's all you have. I am a brand"
Also Kevin "Oh that's funny I'm going to do it"
No one remembers Dave wore a dress in Robinhood men in tights?
There’s no way Kevin actually wanted to wear the dress 😂😂
"no one forced them to wear the dress" sounds a lot like "no one forced them to have sex with Harvey Winstien"
And Kevin Hart refused the role of "Alpa Chino" in _Tropic Thunder_ because he was a gay character. That's tragic because Kevin Hart would've nailed that role.
