And some of you here are such hypocrites, acting disgusted by racist jokes and above childish jokes and stuffs, yet I have seen you (in other threads) making fat jokes about Demi and morbid jokes about Madonna.

Sorry non whites dont like to be reminded how whites oppressed our ancestors with racist comments similar to these "jokes"
Cause they are? Some people have more inappropriate senses of humor. I can pretty much laugh at jokes about any community, including my own It really isn't a big deal.
like, the arguments i'm making here make it seem like i love these kinds of jokes. i really don't that much, they're funny on some occasions but not that often, but i just really hate it when people are so smug about not liking "problematic" things or whatever and think everyone who does is beneath them.
but of course when most of these end up liking a piece of media that has something "problematic" in it, suddenly "it's ok to like it as long as you understand that it's problematic". what kind of cognitive dissonance is that?
My theory is that most comedy is based on being offensive because that's the kind of comedy "stupid people" can understand and find entertaining.
You generally don't need to be well informed or thoroughly educated in order to understand offensive (racist, sexist, fat-shaming, homophobic, etc) jokes.
Ethnic jokes may be uncouth
But you laugh because they're based on truth
Don't take them as personal attacks
Everyone enjoys them, so relax!

well i doubt demi wants to be reminded of her eating disorder either...?
Exactly. Some of those ain't even that funny to begin with. And SOME might be offensive. But most of the time, they are not.
Most of ATRL says much worse things to each other or about other celebrities, and not even as jokes, yet they get offended by a silly joke that's not meant to be taken seriously.

Some people in here acting like a saint when we see them everyday dragging other pop stars for virtually anything from "ugly pictures" to health conditions

A joke is a joke and if it's funny I don't care if it's offensive.The last one in the OP was funny tbh.
As long as you can also laugh about jokes that make fun of yourself it is all fine in my eyes.
It's comedy. If the delivery is good, then just about any joke about any subject matter can be funny no matter how "offensive" they appear to be.
And some of you have NERVE saying that these jokes are wrong when you're the same ones making jokes about Ke$ha's rape case, Gaga's lupus, Britney's mental health, Beyonce's miscarriage, etc.
