L-R: Gerald “Slink” Johnson, Charlie Murphy, Corey Holcomb and John
Witherspoon
It official; Black Jesus is on for another season! With the news, the Facebook page of the show published
a photo with the caption "Your prayers have been answered," suggesting the obvious. A year ago, Adult
Swim did order a second season of its then new Aaron McGruder series, Black Jesus, but given how long
it's been since that announcement, many fans apparently wondered if it was indeed returning for a
second season. In season 1 McGruder's live-action "Jesus" finds the son of God living in present day
Compton, CA, on a daily mission to spread love and kindness throughout the neighborhood, with the
help of his small but loyal group of downtrodden followers. Gerald "Slink" Johnson stars as Black Jesus,
Charlie Murphy, Corey Holcomb, John Witherspoon, Kali Hawk, Andra Fuller, Antwon Tanner, Andrew
Bachelor, Angela Gibbs, and Valenzia Algarin round out the starring cast.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian
According to several reports, it seems that rapper
Kanye West is extremely interested in getting the roast
treatment from Comedy Central! The funny thing is,
these same reports also state that he wants to get
roasted along with wife Kim Kardashian — which
would make them the first couple to ever receive the
roast treatment. All of this comes on the heels of Kanye
witnessing how much buzz surrounded Comedy
Central’s Roast of Justin Bieber, so sources have stated
that of course, Kanye wants the same. We will see!
Comedian Katt Williams has announced his new Conspiracy Theory tour, a jaunt
that will have a "minimum" of 50 dates. The comedian has revealed the first 12
dates beginning in South Carolina next month, with more to be unveiled in the
near future. Williams told Rolling Stone, "The conspiracy conversation is a
conversation that we are all familiar with. We know that there are conspiracies out
there, but this is a conversation that encompasses a lot of things that aren't being
discussed other places. That's the basis for all conspiracy theories: the fact that
there is hidden information out there." Williams added, "This is probably going to go
down as one of my finest works, just because it's a collection of forbidden topics
that we can't seem to get answered."
