CeeLo Green’s Shitty Comments About Rape Cost Him Another Job

September 6, 2014 / Posted by:

Those heave-inducing comments that Jabba the Hutt’s creeper cousin, CeeLo Green, made about rape are still kicking him hard in the ass. Earlier this week, the lead member of Oz’s The Roofie Guild, tweeted (and quickly deleted) a series of shit-covered tweets where he said that rape victims remember being raped and it’s only rape if the person is conscious and knows they’re being raped. C-Word Green barfed up those tweets after he pleaded no contest to “giving” a controlled substance to a woman who claims he raped her after drugging her. CeeLo shat up an apology that wasn’t an apology at all and it wasn’t enough. TBS canceled his reality show (although, they said the cancelation had nothing to do with the diarrhea that spilled out of his mouth) and this morning Nola.com reported that he was dropped as headliner of Louisiana’s Gretna Heritage Festival, which will start on October 3rd. Organizers said in a statement that they want nothing to do with the mutant goiter after what he said about rape.

“Our community does not condone these disparaging remarks delivered by Cee Lo Green, and we feel this entertainer does not represent what our festival is about and has achieved over the past 20 years.”

CeeLo has been replaced with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Joan Jett replacing CeeLo Green is the reason why the word “upgrade” exists.

At this point, CeeLo might only be able to book a co-headlining spot with R. Kelly at Roman Polanski’s 1st Annual Roofies Appreciation Festival, because he also lost another job. CeeLoo was supposed to perform at the Navy’s JBAB Freedom Live show in DC on September 20th, but they announced yesterday that they are washing their hands clean of him:

“Unfortunately, one of the performers we signed for the JBAB Freedom Live show on 20 September recently posted comments on social media that we consider to completely inconsistent with Navy core values. Regardless of intent or context, the lack of sensitivity towards an issue that is one of the great challenges facing our Navy is unacceptable.”

Hmmm… You know you’re way past the point of “I fucked up”  when the US military throws a stank eye at you over something you said about rape.
