Damien Lemon: Oscars Aren't Hard to Boycott When Nobody's Even Watching

submitted by Drop Studios on 06/18/16 1

Comedian Damien Lemon sat down with VladTV to discuss various hot topics in the media, including Stacey Dash's response to the #OscarsSoWhite controversy, Janet Hubert's diss to Jada Pinkett Smith, and much more. When it comes to Stacey Dash, Damien told us that he understood her statement, but he believes that Fox News "set her up" before she said that the BET Awards and Black History Month need to be done away with. However, Damien believes that Stacey is "trolling" right now in the media and he questioned whether Fox News viewers are even familiar with the actress. During the conversation Damien also spoke about actors boycotting the Oscars due to lack of diversity, and the host of TruTV's upcoming "Comedy Knockout" told us that it's not that hard to boycott the Oscars, because no one is watching it anyway. He explained that, "It's not the hardest thing to boycott. This isn't like the NBA Finals, it's the Oscars. Its been white for years." Check out more of what Damien had to tell us during the interview, including his late start to comedy and his upcoming projects.
