Foxx, who did a rendition on Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao fight night of the “Star Spangled Banner,” made fun of Pacquiao’s singing BUT went one racist step further. He mocked the Filipino accent with Foxx in full accented drag on TV, mocking Pacquiao and the Filipino people.
The excuse of course is that he’s a comic but is the slur bordering on being racist? The accent joke is a slur. Of course, the live audience laughed, and host Stephen A. Smith laughed extra hard. Check out the clip at www.amok.com.
You be the judge....
