Amy Poehler's backlash for Blue Ivy-R. Kelly joke
Quote:
Amy Poehler is getting backlash on social media after an episode of her new show "Difficult People" included a joke about R. Kelly urinating on Blue Ivy, the 3-year-old daughter of Jay Z and Beyoncé.
In the scene, comedian Julie Klausner, who plays an aspiring comedy writer named Julie, laments that she is receiving negative backlash after tweeting an offensive joke: "I can't wait for Blue Ivy to be old enough for R. Kelly to (urinate) on her."
Later in the show, the fictional Julie tries to explain the joke to a group of shocked partygoers and calls R. Kelly "basically a sex offender. And depending on, you know, whether charges are true, allegedly a pedophile. Allegedly," according to the Washington Post.
