Jonah Hill Addresses His Controversial Remarks
/ fallontonight - Komedie
This is an awkward video to watch, and I think it's awkward because our society isn't used to grown men geniunely apologizing for situations they've handled poorly; but Jonah handled it with class.
Aww, bless his heart! It _was_ awkward, but sweet. I like him about a million times more, now.
What? He called someone a name, get over it. He did not kill anyone.
words can still hurt, just saying.
@@OmegaRedFan have you ever considered youre just a peace of shit? Lmao
He has the balls to address it in person unlike alot of others who use social media to say it. Whether or not hes a good actor, it takes a lot of courage to do that nowadays...
Jonah: *emotional apology*
Jimmy: thanks for coming out
ahahahahah
I could tell he didn’t mean for it to come off that way. He seemed annoyed with the audience reaction as well
@@iluridx tbh in my opinion it worked really well though. The fact that he didn't mean to make the joke made it even better and feel more appropriate and kind of lifted a bit of awkwardness
@@iluridx is he Gay though?? No way
Jonah Hill is more of a man than most people in show business will ever be. He chose his words very wisely and he was sincere through and through.
You kidding? He was pathetic here. Grovelling and apologizing like a complete bitch for doing nothing wrong. Furthest thing from a man I can imagine.
D Fens he has a career which relies heavily on fans you idiot.
He’s a douche bag
You are just virtue singling in order to get likes.
@@spenser9908how was he pathetic
this dude should get respect from everyone.. he deff deserves it and deserves well in life.
Jonah couldn't apologize without lying 3 times to try and make himself look like a victim and he never apologized to the photographer either, so in reality he never apologized really it was just a PR stunt, yeah he deserves nothing but the best for being so stand up I agree.
i wouldn't have either.. he didn't owe him an apology at all.. he was being harassed and kept on and on until he snapped and got exactly what he wanted.. he apologized to the people that he offended and owed nothing to the photographer..
so does all who thumb s up this cooment
@bob sealand yeah thumbs up to all the idiots who believed him, very sad a s s kiss ers
That's exactly what he wanted. Virtue signalling so clowns like you can cheer him. Disgusting. He called someone a name and apologized afterwards. No big deal. He did not save anybody's life or anything.
Paparazzi can be very aggressive and he reacted with anger. But I can see that he is a genuine person and a great actor!!!! I am gay and I respect his honesty
he is my favorite actor :)
silvia tiana you are very ignorant person
Trolls like silvia tiana and the paparazzo that was taunting Jonah are only looking to get a rise out of you. Don't let them win. Its always best to ignore ignorance my friends. Peace and love to you all.
Dude thats nasty
If he would have attacked non-blacks and heterosexuals with slurs, he would not have to go on an Apology Tour.
He looks genuinely shook up by this.
+TrueMedia HE'S AN ACTOR!!!! LOL
+Meyepadwe OR hes shook up by this.
+TrueMedia you can see his hands shaking thats not somthing you can fake like that hes being honest
cause aint no such thing as halfway crooks
+TrueMedia .............Jonah is not shook up by this. Jonah is a strong guy mentally. It's just that his people got a hold of him and told him that if he wants to work again as an actor he better apologize to the cavern cub scouts because they run show biz.
His anger was righteous. His apology is dignified. He is a class act.
Are you straight ? Cause only people LGBT COMMUNITY can forgive him not straight people
@@Pinkrosessss Please stop telling PEOPLE what they can and cannot forgive. Anyone can be offended by what he said, and those very same PEOPLE have the right to accept or reject Hill's apology.
@@Pinkrosessss what the fuck man
@@Pinkrosessss and that in itself is discrimination based on someone’s sexual orientation and you should honestly be ashamed. You honestly put the lgbt community to shame
@@bobboy7242 A proper use of Uno reverse. Bravo
most celebrities wouldn't have the guts to apologize at a show that's this big and for him to do that was just genuinely brave and amazing and he deserves everyone's respect. He's an amazing person. He apologized for 'insulting someone' who insulted him and his whole family. again, he deserves all the respect
+Tony Manero most celebrities don't care and don't apologize and if they do it would be through an Instagram paragraph or a tweet. Jonah could've done that as well but he didn't. He apologized to thousands of people on TV and on CZcams. Which means he genuinely cares. And to me it just means that he actually cares.
what good is an Apology when it is filled with LIES ? any Idiot can do that and it means NOTHING , he is a liar
he is worse than a Jerk he is a LIAR , his apology was all lies trying to make that photographer out as a bad guy when he in fact was the Hater , nothing Jonah said about the photographer was true, LIE #1 there was no following him, #2 nothing was said about his family, #3 nothing hateful was said personally against Jonah, ALL LIES BY THE LIAR JONAH HILL
+jixxxxer17 do you even make sense?? that paparazzi guy obviously insulted him and his family. And how is he the hater when the paparazzi gu-.... you know what? what's the point you obviously wouldn't understand/care. All YOU'RE focusing about is how much he is of a "lier". No matter what you say HE IS a nice guy. there's footage of what happened. look it up.
patrick wilson i literally did not understand what any of that comment was supposed to mean. english please
He is truly a kind hearted guy for apologising but he didn't need to apologise at all. Everyone says hurtful things in the heat of the moment. The paparazzi are the scum of this world, they stalk people and abuse them for a living.
Wow why are people getting annoyed that he said sorry? The word he used, while may not offend you personally, has been used to insult many gay people around the world. It's used to make their sexuality seem dirty and bad. So, yes, that word is offensive. There's no fucking harm in apologising for it, and (sincere or otherwise) he sets a good example of what to do when you've said something wrong. Apologise, without trying to justify your behaviour.
apology accepted. he seemed to be very genuine.
Careful Icarus dumbass
Careful Icarus stfu clown
Careful Icarus he’s accepting the apology on his behalf you nutter. Not on behalf of the entire LGBTQ+ community 🤦🏻♂️
That was very responsible and mature of him. ❤
i agree and ,,, i wanna say ; u r beautifull :)
Hello...
Thanks for your lovely like and comments on my official page, it's great to know I have such a devoted fan.
Much love💜
This is pretty sad that he has to apologize for this.
Teach the young kids to not be easily offended by words. If you wish to survive in this world you have to be a brick wall when it comes to name calling. It's not going to kill you because someone said something hurtful to you. Unless your suicidal, then your just a quitter. Be the bigger person and say I don't give a fuck what you call me, I know who I am and your opinion carries no weight in my walk of life. Don't teach kids to be defenseless.
My heart is melting. I'm gay and i didn't think it was that bad. But to have the guts to come on one of the most viewed talked shows ever and apologize like is heart warming. Love you Jonah
Hekla Eir hey , what's the meaning of the word jonah said ?
zeiad you really have to be more specific
Hekla Eir the word he said to the paparazzi the that he was apologizing about
heart warming ? wow you are one of those who believes everything huh, HE LIED IN THAT APOLOGY 3 TIMES, what he said is NOT TRUE I WAS THERE HE LIED TO TRY AND GET SYMPATHY FOR HIS HATEFUL ACTIONS. OMG YOU ALL SAD SHEEP
jixxxxer17 i am not saying I believe it I'm just asking about the meaning of the word he said to the paparazzi
"Im glad you came out !" Jimmy is never funnier than when he doesn't intend to be !
I think it was intentional, defuse the tension a little bit away from Jonah, so he can relax after what's weighing him down pretty heavily. Pretty clever and subtle I think.
It's so rare that a celebrity apologizes for something to do and actually sound like they mean it. I could hear the hurt in his voice as he was apologizing and it didn't sound fake at all. I'm not condoning what he said in any way but I really respect him for being so heartfelt in his apology. You can tell he means it when he said that he's been a supporter of the LGBT+ community.
Respect, this is something you don't see often, normally they release "an apology statement" but its quite different when they do it on national TV like this. I could sense his sincerity and passion.
I agree Daniel. Speaking as a bisexual 15-year old Irishman, I forgive him
Oh my god society is fucked. There is no way that people were this offended.
Exactly
Sadly, political correctness turns people into little sensitive ass bitches....smh
+jeb tweebance just all the middle class house wife soccer mom's that watch Dr. Ozz all day we're offended.
+jeb tweebance Just because you're numb to this doesn't mean everyone else is. It's called being polite. Not politically correct, just polite. You should try it.
+jeb tweebance Sadly this is how the world is now.
This isn't about people being "sensitive." He genuinely feels bad about something he said and felt the need to apologize. People who mostly criticize this generation for being overly sensitive are just jerks who can't get away with the crap they say anymore.
Nah not really
+Thomas Buchovecky Did he ever say he was?
"can't get away with saying anything anymore"
There is a difference between bending their asses backwards and chasting yourself for uttering a word lol
He brought this on himself, just own up to it. Preferably without looking like a weakling
He didn't look like a 'weakling', he looked humbled. Which is how people feel when they realize they did something wrong. There's no need to look 'good' when you are trying to atone for something.
@ Davi Pinho what you don't know is he was acting in this apology, grovelling to try to make himself look less ignorant, ok, he lied 3 times in that apology , what you are hearing is BS , you wouldn't know bc you were not there , you only know what you hear which is not truthful he was not trying to Atone for anything he was trying to make the photographer out to be the bad guy, if he was truly sorry for anything he would have apologized to the photographer which HE NEVER DID , that speaks volumes about his intent . jeezz you are so gullible
Its great that he apologized to ppl who may have been offended. And he made it clear that he didn't intend to cause harm.
Leave him alone!
Terri Spoonemore he's a great comedian. I don't think he should get any trouble.
Same here
Why would people be offended? Stop being so sensitive
As a gay man, I accept his apology and clearly he seemed sincere. but to some of these people responding saying "get over it"...it's usually privileged, heterosexual, white people who don't grasp that language and actions can hurt and we as a society can do better than to adopt ignorant language in our every day lives. We're better than that. Humanity is better than ignorance and Jonah seems to realize that
There needs to be some law against these paparazzi. Their tactics are bully-ish and uncalled for. Specially how they go after celebs kids (which was not the case here, but is a problem).
Gotten people injured and killed in the past.... something ought to be done.
Paparazzi killed Princess diana
Captain obvious, You are such a dumbass
Look up the clip of Bjorn attacking one who was talking to her daughter. It's awesome.
@@Kironkp nope, princess Diana was killed by Royal family.
He was genuinly upset. Felt bad for him
I completely believe he didn't mean it in a homophobic way. This shouldn't be held against him, people are too sensitive sometimes.
ash ketchum *generation
Agreed
I am from the future and let me tell you the situation has worsened.
@@zingclassy6457 Lol, people have accepted his apology and he just got more famous since a few years ago
@@es0022 This comment is from a year ago. My opinions have changed since then😳 so yeah I agree
i think this is all blown out of proportion, people use faggot out of context all the time, i'd say 90% of the time people just use the word as an alternative to "fuck" or "prick". he shouldn't have to apologise
I'm tired of everybody apologizing for everything.
Don't move to Canada then
Why do you care if he apologizes? how does it affect you negatively whatsoever??
I'm sorry to hear that.
Let me apologize on their behalf.
I'm tired of you making stupid youtube comments
You could tell that jimmy was like "...came out and...oh shit."
And that’s how you apologized, you see/hear so many “celebrities” making apology statement where they make themselves the victim but never actually hold themselves accountable for actions. This may be the best apology statement I’ve heard from a celebrity yet
That took some real courage to sit up there and tell people to use yourself as an example of how not to act in certain situations. I have respect for him now. Thank you Jonah for being a decent human being.
And that is how a responsible, mature adult handles making a mistake; owning up to what he did wrong and making a sincere apology. Wish more people would handle things like this in this way.
Only when they want to save their movie career. You think he would have felt as bad if it was just another day in regular Joe's life? He is reminded of Michael Richards "Kramer" blowout that ended his career. Just looking to save his ass. He couldn't care less otherwise.
JesusisGodism so whenever someone apologizes it's because they aren't sincere or they want something out of it? How would you know, or are you just speculating? Stop hating, society doesn't need this.
Apologizing for something that you don't have to apologize for? You're dumb
qtaznbabygrl Thats the point. He is acting like he murdered somebody. Why else would he go to such lengths if not to save his own ass. A bit paranoid but none the less.
Hahahhaha hahahhaha
Omg Jonah hill is such a man for owning up to this. He's actually such a wonderful person 😍
+Luke G This would've barely touched his career
+Luke G Actually, this is the first time I heard about the incident
***** I just disagree is all
+Luke G you're an idiot if you think this would've ruined his career. Mike Vic was never supposed to play again and he is. this is nothing compared to what others have done and jonah is a genius at his craft. he had no reason to apologize other than he's actually a genuinely nice person. quit being one of those sheep that thinks everyone else is a sheep, and use common sense lol
+Zulfiyya Alizada Looks more like he pussied out to the angry demands of a small group of people, because of a well deserved insult to a shitty person.
In the words of Keanu Reeves: 'Whoa'.
+Charlotte Good Jonah Hill lied in that apology
Word.
I'm offended and triggered by the word "fuck", I've been oppressed with that horrible word.
Where are all the thought police now?
Fuck you that's where they are.
+cubsfan099 you can say that when they wear a world series ring.
the visuals must be horrifying
Fuck
Fucking fuck how the fuck is this fuck Fucking real? Fuck it
it pisses me off that everybody gets butthurt nowadays for the smallest things.
he said a slur. big fucking deal.
My sister recently came out as gay. I now will be much more aware of certain slangs i have used in a non homophobic way. The ignorance by some people below kills me inside.
Tupac. Legend.
This is how an apology should sound like. Explaining thoroughly what was the wrong done, saying sorry wholeheartedly, and vowing to do better.
Thanks for your remarkable love and support Jennifer! I really appreciate your concern.
🌹🌹🌹
I didn't really find this a big deal. Paparazzi was harassing him and antagonizing him.
Yes, and no matter how much they were bullying him, he was wrong in attacking them back. That just makes matters wore; be the bigger man.
Billy Gee it's not the problem attacking them back, the problem was the words he choose, he could just said "hey, get the fuck out of my face" and he wouldn't be doing this
He wasn't wrong, he was doing what any of us would have done in that situation.
The press should not be allowed to harass anyone, I don't care who they are. And that is why the grocery store rags are still in business drumming up lies about the celebrities. No dirt lets just make it up.
Billy Gee
While I would usually agree with you, and I'm not defending Jonah's choice of words exactly, there is only so much that a person can take. As much as we build these celebrities up, they are still people. And if people are mocking you and your family personally it really all starts to build up.
Not sure if you have ever been in that situation, I know I sure havent to the degree that Jonah was but I imagine its extremely hard to deal with. I'm frankly surprised that those were the ONLY words out of his mouth.
Brenda Christensen We're all guilty of it, sure. That doesn't make it necessary right for him to attack him back though. To be honest, there'd be no need for the press to harass anyone, if we the people didn't care what was going on celebs' personal lives. Again, doesn't mean they have the right to harass. Jordan Rath agreed, but I think now that he's owned up to it, you'll never find him repeating that mistake. There comes a time where you can endure all the personal attacks and not bat an eye
apologizing for what? that photographer was harassing him.
***** Fuck you, dipshit is offensive to my people.
Jimmy defuses that tense moment so well to instantly make it not too awkward. Well done both.
I admire him for being the bigger person and owning up to his mistake. Kudos
🌹🌹🌹
This is America, you have the right to say whatever the fuck you want.
a strong supporter of gay rights said a mean word. get over it seriously, there is no need for him to apologize. i can't believe groups of adults cry and get offended over such stupid, trivial bullshit
I don't know if you heard what you just said. A SUPPORTER of gay rights used a word that would OFFEND gays. He let them down, and he feels bad about it.
Markus Buhler maybe the gay community shouldn't get so offended over a word, when it's not even directed at a gay person. they (and you) should grow up and stop letting words have so much power.
This isn't about anyone getting offended, or me thinking anyone is offended. It's about Jonah feeling bad for using an insult that could potentially offend his friends.
It's not about whether or not someone is offended or even around, it's that fact that using the word as an insult infers that there is something wrong with being gay, or whatever other insult is used.
***** (*cups hand beside mouth and whispers*) I know, but for argument's sake, I'm using it as a example.
This is a really good apology. He completely owned up to his actions, unlike so many public apologies where people just whine about what a bad day they were having. I already liked him, but this makes me admire him more.
Jonah is too real
Well, ya. Errr - atleast he WAS...
.
.
.
.

Until he apologized for it.
I can feel the passion, but I'm not sure how sincere he is. I mean, homeboy is an actor.
Admitting when you are wrong is the least taught and utilized aspect of being a human. So many problems arise from people who can not admit when they have been wrong, so they dig their heels in to the ground and double down on their original stance in order to protect their ego. Ego protection is the cause of wars, racism, sexism, homophobia. Ego protection is the protection of prejudice. Prejudice is judging that you are right before you even hear the other options. How much can you know about yourself if you do not already know all things?
Admitting when you are wrong is neutralizing the ego's hold over you, and rejoining the collective human race.
Nice to see a celeb openly admit when they are wrong, and doing it the right way. No strings attached. Nice to see a celeb that does not need to protect their ego.
That is possibly the most heartfelt apology i have ever witnessed.
This was a genuine apology and I respect him for it
he lied lied lied all lies and i can prove it , here is my t shirt bc it was me www.ebay.com/itm/274564624201
Or perhaps we live in an oversensitive society?
U are right sir
Jonah apologized because he felt bad for saying it. People are angered by the fact that he apologized for saying a hurtful word with his own content. I highly doubt anyone told him to do this and if so, we wouldn't know.
Yeah, seriously doubt "because he felt bad" is the reason for apologizing, I'm sure it had a lot more to do with not wanting an avalanche of bad publicity right before a big movie of his is set to premier.
King John
who cares about the reason why he's doing it, just think about all the little kids who watch this show and saw this show of affection. Just read all the other comments on the video crooning about how much respect they've gained for the man now that he's done this. Though his reasoning may be politically motivated, you'd be a fool to believe he hasn't moved at least one person into being a better and kinder person.
King John
Hi, out of all of these comments you are the only one that has hit the nail on the head I couldn't agree with you more, well said, that is EXACTLY what is going on here, and hes still a nobody in my world couldn't careless what he does or says, what load of crap this is.
Legions and legends no he apologized so he could continue to have a career.
Brought some tears to my eyes. I have a lot of respect for him and I totally understand how this sort of mistake can happen. I think that the fact that he wasn't even prompted with a question about it and just initiated a sincere, explained apology is admirable. Even though he used the word, him owning up to it and taking accountability for it is what matters.
That word cuts deep, but the apology did a good job patching it up!
Jonah is such a nice person. So much respect!!
I like how people in the comments section are mad because of the media, but the main reason for this apology was his own guilt.
I'd like to see some jack@ss get in your face and start throwing anything and everything they can to get a rise out of you and see how many times you come out clean. People are so self-righteous. He apologized. Have you apologized for every thing you are guilty of?
Woah calm down there, I was only saying that because of how supportive he is of LGBT stuff. Should he need to apologize for saying faggot? No. But he did, and it was his choice. And I don't remember anyone making a big deal about it when he said it anyways.
nbydummy totally missed the point of this video
kristian brasel No the point is there, Jonah should NOT have to apologize, if the media just brushed it off, we'd all NOT EVEN BE HERE commenting on this, nbydummy makes a valid point, this entire 2-3min apology shouldnt even need to be said, but because we hold them up on fucking pedestals and even Jonah knows it, he HAS to apologize or his rep as an a good actor and honest person diminish, Jonah's close friends probably dont even give a fuck but the media does, or he goes down as that actor that called someone a Faggot, and never even apologized.
Absolute rubbish its loying!
Jonah hill was like you had me at spaghetti
what
***** It's a reference to what Jeff Ross said on the Roast of James Franco
Johnny V.
Oh ok.
Palms are sweaty
Knees weak, arms are heavy
Vomit on my sweater already
Mom’s spaghetti
***** momspaghetti.ytmnd.com/
Whatever man, it's not homophobic because it's just a spur of anger
This makes me respect him even more after apologizing on national television, he didn't just send out a simple tweet like most celebrity apologies, he addressed the matter directly and apologized...Good on ya Jonah!
What a society that we live in. I'm SO tired of this thought and language policing bullshit. He said a bad word, which I'm sure wasn't thrown around in a homophobic manner. The groveling apologies need to stop. EVERY TIME someone gets offended, somebody else has to go on apology duty. It's fucking pathetic.
Very classy of him. :3
yes, very.
Agreed. Very well worded apology that in all honesty, he shouldn't really have to have given. Paparazzi should be the one apologizing for provoking it out of him. Those people are the scum of the earth.
2:35
Hear that *psh* sound? That's the sound of someone getting fired. xD
This is such a good apology. Unlike most celebrity apologizes this actually feels genuine
I get called a faggot 1337 times every time I get on battlefield. People are too damn sensitive. If you're not comfortable enough in your own skin to let a derogatory remark slide without it crushing yourself emotionally, that's a problem you have with yourself.
would he be sorry if he wasnt famous?
no.....
if he wants to maintain his status he needs to apologize. he really doesnt give a fuck.
This is why I love Jonah hill so much, he is so amazing and for him to apologize is something I have never seen a celebrity do. He is truly the best
Love you Jonah hill!
Never read the comments... I don't think someone apologising for using a hateful slur means "this generation is f*cked for being too sensitive." I think it's nice to see someone in the public eye acknowledge just how hateful these terms can be. Go Jonah.
You can see his heart in this video. He seems like a really sincere, genuine and obviously a cool guy. I don't really get offended by that word unless it's used with malice or to stereotype myself or others in the LGBT community, but it's good of him to acknowledge the situation and give a substantial apology.
I have nothing against Jonah and am looking forward to seeing more of his work!
It takes a real man to address and apologize for a mistake with such sincerity like this. Jonah Hill is the prime example of how the human race needs to carry itself in modern society. Hatred and bigotry will get you nowhere. Kindness and acceptance is something everlasting that everyone can spread.
Jimmy's reaction in the end is priceless HAHAHA
god jimmy is awkward
I love his awkwardness. Love him
Props to him that takes balls to come out and say an apology like that with meaning on national television
Paparazzi bully and follow these people around everywhere just waiting for them to stick up for themselves just so they have good 'footage' to sell. Makes me sick. How is it even legal?
I agree. That's why I avoid tabloids and celebrity gossip sites and pages. They're as "real" as reality shows.
He reacted much more pleasantly than most of would have in that situation.
Bailey Peterson he's a good guy. not defending him. And the fact that he made an apology even if it wasn't really his fault was more than enough to say that he's really a good man. he really is. All the time.
Bailey Peterson I don't think he was MADE to apologize. Unlike many other celebrities who do it for PR, I think this apology was made by himself because he wanted to, not because he had to. And it WAS his fault for saying it. You can empathize for what it's like to be hounded like that, to have some asshole make rude comments about you or your family, but antagonized or not, he said those words and he felt bad. That's why he apologized. I don't feel it was needed, but he did and he did it so humbly, so I applaud him.
What's wrong with using the word "grotesque"??
😂😂😂
I thought this was a joke and was waiting for the punchline...
Ames14 like any women hes ever been with it never came
Ames14 “There is no punchline....it’s not a joke”
I honestly don't see what is wrong with him calling the guy a faggot. I would because no one should mock someone and his family. Everyone who says that word isn't a homophobe. People take things way to literal and need to calm down. Let's be real, 98% of the U.S. has called someone a faggot at least once.
He's genuinely hurt. And he is totally owning up to it. Good man.
Jonah Hill is my hero, and my idle, I love his films, and his acting style in both comedies and dramas, I love Mid90s, and if I ever become a director and/or actor, it would be a dream to work with him.
I love you Jonah Hill, you're an inspiration to us all 😊
One of my favorite actors, class act man. Much love bra.
I really hope this doesn't bring down Jonah Hill's career too greatly, the word is incredibly offensive, but everyone makes mistakes and say things we definitely don't mean, especially when they feel attacked and are angry. I'm very glad he apologized, I think his apology was very sincere, he clearly looks incredibly upset with himself. I was so sad the other day to see that he had used it, definitely one of the worst words in existence, makes me sick every time I hear it.
lol Questlove with that cymbal hit at the end
Lame actor
CHEEEEEEEAAAAA!!!!!
A guy with principles and guts right here! I wish everyone of us would be that upright😊
you are so misinformed , he lied 3 times bc he has NO GUTS
Jonah Hill is so amazing and I love him, but more importantly I applaud him on taking into account how he may have affected people. He took action and you could tell he was genuinely upset about his remark. Obviously the word choice was not the greatest, but let's not forget how he was also being attacked and abused by the paparazzi.... He could have easily justified his word choice as defence and made the paparazzi look like the bad guy. But instead he took punishment for his own decisions and I just adore him for that.
good for him for taking actual accountability and admiting his mistakes
He really did nothing wrong in the first place
🌹🌹🌹
You know it's sincere because he's not that good of an actor.
shut up
U MAD, BRO?
Yours is the most sane statement I've read in this thread!
I am just going to assume you didn't see Wolf of Wall Street
ZING! That's all in good fun, and hilarious. Jonah would crack up I'm sure.
If someone is insulting you personally like that, you have every right to call them whatever you want.
This made me cry. When a person can say something like this infront of the whole world, it takes guts. Im so proud of you jonah. :)
Hello...
Thanks for your lovely like and comments on my official page, it's great to know I have such a devoted fan.
Much love💜
didnt south park changed the definition of the word?
Yup, it means, ignorant bikers
TheCanadianAtheist Can Guy must have been on a Harley...
***** SOUTH PARK IS SATIRE?!? MY WHOLE WORLD IS UPSIDE DOWN! The next thing you're going to tell me is that they're actually animated paper cut outs... Because we all know that's a lie.
Why is he crying?
It's not that deep!
He wasn't even crying...
X340retroX I know. I was exaggerating. It wasn't necessary for him to make these comments.
***** He was just apologizing nothing else.. he obviously had to say something about it since it was a controversial thing and it would have been awkward, especially since Fallon mentioned it and put him on the spot
X340retroX Didn't he say 'before we start I just want to address something?'
It meant something to him, and it definitely means something to the LGBTQ community. So, for some people, it IS that deep.
Much respect for doing what he did and admitting his faults on air like that.
Best apologize I've seen real sincere. What a great guy
God I love Jonah Hill... Such a good dude.
100% the kind of man that this world should be filled with. Anger can take over our mouths or heads sometimes, and it's heartbreaking and frustrating, but being the person to apologize proves just how great Jonah Hill is.
I like that Jimmy kinda helped clear the room with that joke, pretty cool guy imo
Its strange how a comedy film star can be so emotional, and serious. Really brings out an iconic character.
Christ, it's sad how fucking politically correct people have to be these days.
Just what I was thinking, so many people get offended nowadays for every single word that comes out your mouth
Jorge Sanchez I'm offended that their offended. lol
Christ ? Indeed, how about following him then ? Why not try to evolve a bit ? To try ur best to respect someone else and not offend'em ? ... We are not perfect, but we shouldn't try being imperfect.
Glauber Araujo Did you just say follow Christ and evolve in the same sentence?
Glauber Araujo The problem is that most of the time offense isn't the intent. A lot of the times when you say something hurtful it is in the spur of the moment and the things you say aren't a hundred percent your beliefs. Sometimes people just need to take a different page from God's book and see that people are not always as evil as they seem.
im glad hes going out of his way to apologize for something that doesnt necessarily need such a big apology. it shows his commitment to make it right to the people that he truly does support.
THIS is how public apologies are done. Immediately, intelligently, seriously, and sincerely.
Honestly way to go Jonah I’m a huge fan I love you it is awesome that you were a man about it and addressed that what YOU chose to do in retaliation was not something u were proud of, and address that you were genuinely sorry much respect
Maybe we need to stop overreacting, I bet if a random person said it TMZ wouldn't be all over him/her, but as soon as somebody who's successful make one slip, it's headline news.
He shouldn't have used the word. The fact is, in civil company, that sort of language gets the same response, the people who respond just aren't public figures.
MordeaniisChaos The question is, was the guy who was annoying Jonah homosexual?
This is literally the only sincere apology i have ever seen from a celebrity. Props to you jonah. I was a fan of you on screen in super bad and jump street but now im a fan of you as a person.
you could see he really chose his words while speaking about this
People need to grow up. He didn't even say anything bad. If someone is taunting and threatening him, he is in no way wrong to say anything derogatory back. It's funny how he supports the LGBT community, yet he was ATTACKED by them for using a term that everybody uses. People are too sensitive.
+Jared Cox I'm gay and I wasn't offended at all. I use the word when I'm angry because it's a fucking great word. It's like the best word ever to express your anger towards someone.
Rob Cote Very true.
+Jared Cox Right lmfao? It's so annoying how people were so offended over this, acting like they've never said a gay slur in their life..
EUROVISION WALL I don't know about that but I was my moms firstborn so I slightly tore her birth canal when she gave birth to me.
+Jared Cox Can you give a single example of the LGBT community "attacking him" for this? First I think most LGBT groups heard about it was when he apologized. In fact had he actually consulted with any LGBT advocacy groups beforehand they probably would have told him it was no big deal and to button up, since all apologising like this does is stoke the paranoia of the "see, the gay agenda wants to silence Christians with Political Correctness" crowd.
