Fans Walk Out on Tracy Morgan During Raunchy Routine
Tracy Morgan brought his brand irreverent humor to the upper-crusty confines of NYC's
Carnegie Hall on Friday, but many fans were shocked and appalled by what they heard. According to the
NY Daily News, the
'30 Rock' star was "unspeakably filthy" throughout the show and inspired many customers to walk out in disgust. To be fair, Morgan made it clear who they paid to see: "You want the clean Tracy? Turn on the TV," he told them.
One audience member said people were "shocked and appalled with what was coming out of his mouth," including trash-talking about homosexuality (it's "a choice"), drugs, sex acts and pornography. One joke merged politics and the ever-growing catalog of celebrity sex tapes going around.
"Obama is really changing the White House, because he and Michelle will have the first presidential sex tape out," he said.
The News' spy reports "a continuous flow of people getting up and leaving throughout the show," including a legion of middle-aged women who grew uncomfortable when Moran began mimicking sex acts on stage.
Not everyone was appalled by his routine, though. Spike Lee and 'Rock' co-star Jane Krakowski were both in attendance and reportedly joined in on a standing ovation.
The former 'Saturday Night Live' comedian recently released a tell-all, 'I Am the New Black,' and even stopped by the PopEater offices to (cleanly) crack us up. Watch

Tracy Morgan Visits PopEater
"I just think that this was the right time. I mean, you know, I was mature enough. And I wanted to tell my story. I don't know how long I'm gonna be here, and I think,you know, the changing in the world and the president, all of those things that happened in world in the last two years inspired me," Tracy Morgan explains to PopEater why he wanted to write his book, 'I Am the New Black.'

Why in the world do you think it's a choice? Is "gay" something that you thought about becoming, and then changed your mind?
No one decides to become a member of the worst treated minority in world history. No one decides to risk losing relationships with their family and friends. No one decides to run the risk of hate crimes. Open your eyes and stop presenting your erroneous belief as fact.
I think you mean "mild" and why would someone who doesn't even know THAT even BEGIN to think they know if homosexuality is a choice or not? Go back to school
Tracy Morgan is funny to some I'm sure. I just don't get him. I, too, never found him funny on SNL or anywhere else, yet my husband thinks he's hilarious. Still, if you are paying to see him, you really should know what it is you are paying to see. I mean, come on! It's obvious he's no Ray Romano!! You're gonna get the filth!
That's Ok Carl....maybe we can all chip in and buy jerry a brain for Christmas.
You have the nerve to call someone else retarded(notice the proper spelling),you can't even work the "caps lock" button on your keyboard. Don't you have spellcheck or can't you work that either? Tracy is f@#$ing hilarious but his humor isn't for everyone and probably didn't go over too well the "upper-crusty" clientele of Carnegie Hall. To each their own. Don't be so quick to judge.
Do you mean MILD? Do you mean RETARDED? Are you retarded? Did you ever go to school? What did you take up there SPACE?
I agree. I'm a lesbian and it is a choice. Noone is 'born' with the emotions of who they want to be with. There is no 'gene' that dictates our emotions, that is absurd. As we grow and develop we are exposed to life's social realms and we adopt and adapt. We are born hungry, wet, breathing but not sexually or affectionately oriented. Babies have not developed into loving humans. THAT comes later, so being gay IS A CHOICE.
Homosexuality is NOT a choice, just like being born black is not a choice!
I didn't grow up with crushes on boys, because I stopped and thought about before hand.
What is a choice, is enlightening your ignorance with personal experience. In other words, ask someone who actually knows.
Are you retad? You sure spell like it!
MILE? Come on, learn the word... but then, you spew things you know nothing about. When was it exactly you chose to be hetero? Wait, what am I asking... not worth any more of my time.
Love how you described someone as 'eithert retared'....i think the very definition of retarded is that of a simpleton who made it through school and is incapable of spelling common words...i take that back, truly retarded people have an excuse.
Darin, darin darin...
May I suggest that you go back to school and learn to write basic english? I am still not sure what you posted. Hope that your parents are alive and they can sue the schools that you attended......
Wow! Have an opinion, as we all do, but pls. Have the ability to spell...Not's let even consider grammar. He made a grave mistake; now, he'll have a lot of explaining to do. It's too bad; he seemed SOOOO talented, but missed on the "social govenors".
learn how to write and spell ya moron
Really? Homosexuality is a choice? You must be homosexual to know that. Now i not only dislike Morgan, i dislike your ignorance and uneducated bigotry.
I cannot believe all the ignorance on these posts. He is funny enough to have been on SNL and had a very good run. He is funny enough to get several shows after his SNL run and continue to be on Prime Time. It is because of the free publicity that you people give him... Get a clue and do something better with your time people!!!
Darin: You really should go back to school and get an education before you demonstrate to the world your ignorance. There are numerous (many; a lot) of spelling errors contained within your missive. Please tell me you're a drop out and not someone who actually graduated from an institute of higher learning!!
Idiot... did you CHOOSE to be heterosexual? If so, that means that you have in your head that you can choose to be a homo but don't! lol!
Obviously you don't have a clue what you're talking about, genius! That is apparent by your horrible grammer and spelling. Go back to first grade spelling class.
His career is going south. Just watch...he'll be in the cast of "Dancing With The Stars" next...a definite marker that he's done.

Don't come off as Bill Crosby and then do Redd Foxx.
