Ugh.
D.L. Hughley is yet another name to the list of ignorant individuals coming for Caitlyn Jenner and her being honored with the ESPYs Arthur Ashe award.
Hughley was caught by a TMZ photographer the other night and asked about Caitlyn, to which he responded:
“I think that it’s named after Arthur Ashe,”
“Arthur Ashe from Richmond, Virginia, a symbol of courage. He fought [a] segregated South, a very segregated profession, he fought AIDS with dignity and honor, and Caitlyn Jenner put on a dress. I don’t think it’s the same thing. We have a weirder definition for courage, I think that Lauren Hill was courageous in the name of sports. I don’t know if that would’ve been my choice but obviously I’m not in the ESPYs. I think Arthur Ashe and Caitlyn Jenner have very little in common.
Hughley decided to end the conversation with the ignorant line:
“Caitlyn Jenner looks like every P.E. teacher I ever had.”
Lovely.
D.L. didn’t stop there however and you can watch him spew nonsense below:
