NEW YORK (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — Fresh off of a public apology for an ill-advised homophobic rant during a performance at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium earlier this month, Tracy Morgan once again finds himself in hot water.
According to E! Online The Arc, a non-profit that helps the disabled is calling for Morgan to apologize for part of the routine he delivered during a performance at Caroline's in New York.
During his performance, Morgan reportedly advised the audience to "not mess with women who have retarded kids." Then, elaborating on the theme, Morgan added "Them young retarded males is strong, they’re strong like chimps."
The Arc took exception to Morgan's comedy. "Tracy Morgan should apologize immediately," Arc CEO Peter Berns, told E! "This quote is far too offensive to be excused as comedy, and it is very hurtful to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families." – CelebrityAccess Staff Writers
