Katt Williams appeared on Shannon Sharpe’s podcast “Club Shay Shay” and threw some serious shade at other comedians. Here’s a breakdown of the drama:
Ricky Smiley: Cat accused Smiley of stealing his role in the movie “Friday After Next.” Smiley supposedly auditioned for the role of Money Mike, which eventually went to Cat. Cat also claimed he had a clause in his contract stating Smiley would have to wear a dress in his movies, referencing Smiley’s character Bernice Jenkins. Smiley responded on his radio show, admitting he didn’t get the role of Money Mike but said the pimp character they gave him was funnier. He also defended wearing a dress in his act, saying it has nothing to do with his masculinity.
Cedric the Entertainer: Cat claimed Cedric stole a joke from him on the BET show “Comic View” in the late 90s. Cedric denied the accusation, calling it “revisionist history.”
Ludacris: Cat made the bizarre claim that Ludacris landed his role in “The Fast and the Furious” through a deal with the Illuminati, a secret society conspiracy theory. Ludacris has not responded.
Cat also made other outrageous claims, including Harvey Weinstein propositioning him and Michael Blackson being involved in drama on the set of “Friday After Next.”
The interview has gone viral, with many finding Cat’s stories entertaining, if not entirely truthful. While some enjoyed the wild ride, others found it hard to believe everything Cat said.
