Marlon Wayans Shares His Thoughts On the Dave Chappelle Backlash
Wayans also weighed in on Will Smith‘s 2022 Oscars slap incident with Chris Rock, sharing that he reached out to both men afterwards to check in.
“It was interesting,” he said. “I think part of us is like, ‘Wow,’ because for years, we had no idea Will had that in him.”
When it comes to his own comedic stylings, Wayans joked that he is an “equal opportunity offender.”
“My brother [Damon Wayans] always taught me, ‘Be an equal opportunity offender,’ which means I make fun of everybody,” he joked. “And the person I make most fun of is myself, and I think when you do that, then, you know, you can’t be mad because everybody gets it. And also what is your intention? My intention is to make everybody laugh.”
How can he tell if a joke landed? He says, “If I make the people that I’m making fun of laugh the loudest, then that’s a damn good joke.”
