Guess who wont be watching the Amy Poehler’s new Hulu series “Difficult People”, this girl! As a matter of fact I did not even hear about it until little Blue got entangled in it.
I am not the only one either fans are all over Twitter asking for the show to be cancelled due to an offensive ‘joke’ that was said about Beyonce’s 3 yr old daughter.
Julie Klausner, who plays Julie Kessler in the series says, “I can’t wait for Blue Ivy to be old enough for R. Kelly to piss on her,”
Who the hec says that about a child? Any child!!? The Twitter fire storm that ensued was immediate and swift:
As an excuse Klausner told Entertainment weekly that Poehler was very involved in the series, every script and word used in it had her signature.
“Amy could not have been more hands-on. She did not only give notes on every script, she gave notes on every draft of every outline. She weighed in on casting videos, cast roles. She weighed in on production matters,” she said.
“She came up with the title. She would give notes on every single edit, not only of the shows but of the promos, the trailers. She would be involved in every stage of the process in a way that she would go above and beyond.”
What is even more ironic is that Amy is the co founder of an online community called Smart Girls which is a community that empower young women through ‘culture’, ‘volunteerism’ and ‘culture’.
“Funny, focused, and powerful, Smart Girls seeks to help future women channel their intelligence, imagination, and curiosity into a drive to be their weird and wonderful selves,” says the group’s website.
Those ideals I suppose does not cover little girls like Blue Ivy because if you stood by your own ideals that tasteless joke would never have been approved.
To add insult to injury, Amy Poehler and her team have not issued any sort of apology! I will end with one final Tweet:
**Slow clap!**
How grotesque.
Ashley Wh disgusting.
How comfortable they feel being disrespectful. Shame
Sick!
I strongly dislike Beyonce but seriously that was a low blow damn low and out of line yes the show should be cancelled dis Ashley whathername that was trashy, tasteless and beyond classless!!!!!
True
omg ! children should be off limit !
Oh man…
Horrible!
That is not right to talk about hurting a child . She needs to sue because it is so sick
Sick Sick Sick leave children out of your mouth that s so wrong
Children will always be off limits its terrible that people try so hard to be funny that they take shots at kids it’s pathetic and yeah if I was Beyoncé or Jay somebody is going to pay for that I would pay out of my own pocket to have it cancelled or raise so much hell about it they’ll take it off the air just to shut me up
Jay-Z & Bey, as parents and as huge media mogals, please put hulu on full blast for incriminating the innocent honor of your baby girl. That doesnt make any sense to disrespect someone like that let along a child. Hulu autta be ashamed.
Don’t care…
Why didn’t she wrote the joke about him pissing on her child? Because it is not funny! There is nothing funny about child abuse in any way ! Some things should be off limits
Blue is workin those afro puffs which mom would go natural your a super star now you can call the shots so many girls look up to you plz stop crawling around on the ground and clapping your booty your much better than that plus Ivy is watching
I do not need to read the trashy remark, but I will say great photo of Mom and daughter
Not cool at all. Leave children out of it
Smh
Really smh hula disgusting
They are comedians… Change the channel if u don’t like it..n stfu
But what’s funny about a child getting pissed on
It’s not funny to u but to someone else i t is. Mind ur business if it bothers u..plain n simple.. Crying a river over what someone on TV said.. TURN UR TV OFF OR CHANGE THE CHANNEL
Dumb guys aren’t gonna be chasing down blue ivy.
Amy Poehler seeks to empower young women through volunteerism, activism, and she continues the culture of sexualising black females. The disrespect you have shown to Blu Ivy Carter a 3 year old. I am sure if it was your daughter it would have been different. I am sure you would never do the same to Princess Charlotte of Cambridge as not to offend the English viewers or the ratings coming from overseas, but it’s a Black Princess so I guess it’s okay..
didn’t jay do the same to Nas
People are so ignorant. Just because you may not like her parents she is an innocent CHILD that hasn’t done anything to you. And to be honest it’s not like you personally know her parents either to be so angry with them
The same way folks are outraged over the thought of R.kelly abusing blue ivy, something that hasn’t even happened, is the same way we should be outraged as a community to any abuse of children, even if the abuser is a musical genius, star athlete or whatever…
Jay-z will handle this don’t worry she picked on the wrong child Boycott all products that sponsor any show she go on please
My comment has morning to do with the post… But the kid looks nothing like Beyoncé:-|
Comic went to damn far with this one.
People
You know what Blue Ivy is just a child so stop the bull sh—- an fu— with her parents if you have any negative things to say. So they can handle that ass for You. How about that!!!!
I watched that episode and just thought it was a joke……..oh wait….it was.
Wtf
Hulu should be more interesting than that,to say something like that is downgrading and ignoring. We as people should show respect for one another and especially children
Hulu don’t go down like R. Kelly did I’m just saying
