why did jamie see this and go, "let me save that white man"

Jimmy actually handled this well on his own, he doesn't need your help.

lol jimmy is probably like "DUDE SHUT UP THE INTERNET ALREADY MOVED ON"

[pikapika217]

Truly I think he handled it as well as he could've and isn't that what we want - someone accepting their responsibility, acknowledging where the fault lies and not bullshitting about it. This wasn't a Robert Downey Jr. response but this one does make me wonder if Jamie is among his 90% of black friends who had no problem with tropic thunder 🙄

That's the real reason he did it. Stir it up again and still make himself look good to white comedians

“We got bigger fish to fry.”

Exactly. No one needed your opinion on this cause we all got bigger fish to fry.

lmao he can defend him all he wants but just because he's not mad at him doesn't make it not blackface.

The fact he said this is not black face when it is in fact black face baffles me.
