Michelle Buteau Slams Dave Chappelle’s Trans Jokes in Netflix Special

Michelle Buteau Slams Dave Chappelle’s Trans Jokes in Netflix Special
SHARE

Michelle Buteau took a stand against Dave Chappelle and his controversial jokes about the transgender community during her recent comedy special, “Michelle Buteau: A Buteau-ful Mind at Radio City Music Hall,” which premiered on Netflix. The comedian started by sharing a story about her “Black lesbian friend,” an anecdote that triggered a range of reactions from the audience. While some chuckled, others felt uneasy. Buteau emphasized the importance of comedians being able to deliver jokes and stories without demeaning entire communities.

“We can make it funny without being hurtful,” Buteau asserted. She then humorously called out Chappelle, referring to him as “the GOAT,” a term typically used to signify “greatest of all time.” However, in Chappelle’s case, Buteau humorously redefined “GOAT” as “going off on trans people.”

Expressing disbelief, Buteau questioned how someone could profit immensely by making others feel unsafe. She declared her intention to manifest a space where people feel secure, seen, heard, and entertained while also making millions of dollars. This declaration was made during her Radio City Music Hall performance, symbolizing her desire to create a safe and inclusive environment for all.

Chappelle, known for his boundary-pushing humor, faced backlash in 2021 for targeting the transgender community in his Netflix special, “The Closer.” Despite the criticism, he stood by his controversial jokes in his subsequent special, “The Dreamer,” refusing to retract or apologize for his statements.

Buteau’s bold stance against harmful comedy and her commitment to creating a space where everyone feels valued and respected resonated with her audience. Her willingness to challenge established norms and advocate for inclusivity in comedy sets her apart as a trailblazer in the industry. By speaking out against harmful humor, Buteau is paving the way for a more inclusive and compassionate future in comedy.
