Outspoken actor Jamie Foxx believes that while white people shouldn’t be allowed to use the ‘N’ word, he, as a black man, should be able to use it and will continue to do so because he “needs” to.

From Life Style Extra:

Jamie – who was referring to ‘Seinfeld’ actor Michael Richards’ racist outburst at Los Angeles’ Laugh Factory – said: “He was just calling us n****r like it was the 50s! Then they said we can’t use the word anymore. That’s my s**t. I need it.

“I need the word to describe certain things, because at a certain level of excitement, I need to tell you how the s**t was, and there ain’t no other word that helps me say that better than that word.

“White people, you can’t use it. I would have booked his ass!”

I’m sorry, Jamie, but as a white man, I couldn’t disagree with you more. Not that I have ever used the ‘N’ word, mind you, but as an aspiring rap artist with an extremely limited vocabulary, I “need” to have every word at my disposal, or I’m just never going to make it to the top. In fact, just last week, my daughter asked me to write her a rap about her favorite bedtime story and I am already struggling to find words that will rhyme with the names of the characters. It’s “Winnie-The-Pooh”, by the way – in case you have any suggestions.

If, however, you plan on pushing this issue further, I, in the name of white people everywhere, will have to insist on the ‘C’ word being used by my race and my race only. That means that from now on, if anyone asks, you’re eating “cheese and flat pieces of hard bread”, not “cheese and crackers”. In fact, you better hope to God you didn’t just read that sentence aloud or I’m going to make sure my good friends Patrick Stewart and Howie Mandel come over there and “book your ass”.

Also, my wife would like to point out that she is offended by the ‘J’ word and believes that only people of similar origin should be allowed to use it. Therefore, she asks that both you and I use the words “anese” and “an” when referring to her ethnicity and country. Thanks.
