Dice got banned from MTV 4 life after this night. Dice later recalled years later because Dick Clark was there losing his freaking mind. What did they expect from the Diceman. Legend!
He's doing the routine he was super famous for at that exact time. What did they expect? MTV rarely liked to arbitrarily ban things (Justify My Love video comes to mind). There was so much worse than what Dice did but everyone else always got a slap on the hand. For some reason they ban Dice.. for life! Never made sense. In any event MTV is totally irrelevant now.

I second that sentiment 💯 x a zillion, this was a time when America still laughed, when expression and aesthetics were encouraged, when laughing at sarcasm comedy was allowed to be expressed. I don’t like the state of things now, seems like Americans are loosing their freedom bit by bit, I hope is not too late to save the republic. As a foreigner who loves US I see what’s happening loud and clear…”Let’s go Brandon” 🇺🇸
I remember watching this as it happened with my friends very religious family. Just as dice was finishing his routine, my friends father had a stroke and died right on the living room floor.😮
I remember when this aired. I was in highschool and my dad literally fell off his chair laughing and kept saying 'Holy s%@t, Did he REALLY SAY THAT on national television???". I looked at my dad and said, YEP, he sure did! LOL
MTV was never the same after this. A few years later, Beavis had to be censored from saying the word "fire". Total PC bs. Ironically, they later had a show called "Undressed," which was softcore porn that bordered on Cinemax After Dark. Hypocrites.
@@gsb0311 He didn’t say they got smaller he said they started censoring. MTV was much rawer before this moment. Then they got sued over the “Fire” incident and it was much more toned down. For a while then it when full retard with real world and as far as I’m concerned killed itself. I ended up working with MTV on making the band I think season 3. Everyone that worked for them was a complete asshole.
Definitely the Jack Sprat one and the one about “wheeling the chick”. That definitely would be past what would have been acceptable for MTV then, using the words “tits” and “shit”, the latter particularly was not acceptable on basic cable back then.
I thought it was the saggy tits and licked her ass hole clean. He said on Larry king it was that last poem he started and then he remembered the Ending wasn't allowed. Pretty petty really. It was great 😃🤘
Things were different back in the "olden days" of 1989.. I hadn't heard "bitch" on tv until the mid 90's at least. about 10 years later I heard "shit". and I hear "dick" now and again.
Dice was a force that MTV couldn't handle. They told him to stall, they knew what was coming... If you haven't seen it, watch his show Dice. It's unbelievable.
Adc talked about this moment on Joe Rogan’s podcast …. Saying that mtv banned him for life after this, Dick Clark rushed to the stage after ADC’s opening….And his manager Sandy Galen called Adc saying he hoped this didn’t get to the west coast.
In 1989 Andrew Dice Clay is banned for life from MTV. Basically he was censored for his comedy show. THE VERY NEXT YEAR, 1990, Eric Bogodsian and 2 Live Crew turn their appearance on the show into a political statement on the evils of music censorship. DO YOU GET THE IRONY?!?
Mtv knew EXACTLY what they were doing when they had him on. People forget that this was back when MTV was actually cool. Also, notice how the women in the audience are laughing at his jokes?
What’s truly remarkable is how tame this is compared to the garbage that’s been on MTV the last several years. Hypocrisy at its finest. This was good for MTV, and it was even better for Dice.
Wow this dude totally slipped my mind. I forgot how fuckin funny he is LOL. The babies would be crying HARD nowadays though. You just cant tell a joke anymore its ridiculous
