In a shocking revelation that has set the showbiz world abuzz, comedian Katt Williams recently accused fellow comedians Steve Harvey, Cedric the Entertainer, and Rickey Smiley of stealing his jokes and conspiring against him.
The Accusations Unveiled
The explosive claims were made during an interview on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast. Williams didn’t hold back, pointing fingers at his long-time nemesis, Cedric the Entertainer, as the main culprit behind the joke theft. Not only that, but Williams revealed that Steve Harvey collaborated with Cedric and Smiley to steal his jokes. To make matters worse, he accused Harvey of even copying content from another show for one of his own productions, labelling him a ‘potato head.’
Justified Critique or Longstanding Feuds?
Williams justified his allegations by stating that the jokes of his fellow comedians didn’t measure up to his own. Whether this critique was genuine or stemmed from longstanding feuds remains unclear. Adding fuel to the fire, Williams also accused Rickey Smiley of deceiving him for a film role, claiming that Smiley misled him about the character he would play in the 2002 film “Friday After Next,” nearly costing him the role.
Personal Jabs at Cedric the Entertainer
As for Cedric the Entertainer, Williams didn’t hold back. Not only did he accuse him of stealing jokes, but he also took personal jabs at his appearance and talent. Williams claimed that Cedric couldn’t sing, dance, or write jokes, and openly criticized Cedric’s comedy specials.
Steve Harvey’s Alleged Plagiarism
Even Steve Harvey faced Williams’ wrath. Williams alleged that Harvey plagiarized Mark Curry’s role in “The Steve Harvey Show.” Furthermore, he stated that Harvey had no potential to be a successful movie star, citing instances where Harvey allegedly declined opportunities.
A Feud That Dates Back to 2008
This feud between Williams and Harvey began in 2008 when it first became public. The two comedians were expected to settle their differences in a stand-up comedy battle on New Year’s Eve in Detroit, with Jamie Foxx playing a role in instigating the feud.
