"The Geek" Joins the N-Bomb Club

Brat packer Anthony Michael Hall used the N-word twice while signing autographs and posing for pictures with fans last night, and it all went down outside the Laugh Factory, of all places.

Hall, the star of such 80s classics as "Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club," uttered several obscenities as he joked around with fans and photographers outside the same Hollywood comedy club where Michael Richards made his infamous rant back in November. When a particularly large, Hispanic looking fan came up to Hall looking to take a picture with him, Hall jokingly said, "I am scared of this nigga right here."

About a minute or two later, while posing for a pic with another fan, Hall says to someone off camera, "What up nigga?"

Throughout the video, Hall half-seriously told several people to "get the f**k out of here" and joked that the cameraman would sell the video to a TV show -- ha, close! During the taping, Hall also joked several times about being high.

17. Alot of whites are started to lose that good-ole Ameican whiteness of days past. They have been affected by rap music as much as anyone else. They are becoming "White N****s".

18. i wouldn't be offended if i was called a cracker..

Infact i find it almost hypocritical that black people say it all the time, but will bitch if a white person says it.

there is a double standard in america... and the double standard is simply an issue, becuase it leads to people being prejudice.

for example.. its okay to have "miss black USA" or "Black History" month..

but if it was "miss white USA" or "White history" month.... sh*t would hit the fan.

20. I'M AFRICAN AMERICAN!!!!!!!! TMZ, stop tryin to start sh*t!!! He was obviously using NIGGA the same way many other white, hispanic AND african americans do!!!!!! It doesn't offend me and I'm tired of people telling me it should! None of my white friends get mad when I call them little white girl! I wasn't out in the cotton fields so why should I keep acting like I was. If Carlos Mencia and Chris Rock can say it, so can this guy (who is he anyway??)

Now if he had said "50 Years ago, you'd be upside down with a fork in up your ass you NIGGER" then there'd be something! Racist people are racist but damn, I'm tired of everyone trying to claim racism. And white people will be the first to call another white person racist. Case in point: this article right here!

21. @D. U really need to look @ the history of race in this country. Black women untill around the 70's weren't even allowed to compete in Miss USA period so they had to create their own version of many things that black people were blocked from being apart of by white people. But now these things have become apart of black culture and tradition. This is common amoung minority groups of anykind. Not just race. There was a competition on tv crowning Miss F.A.T. Where slim people being discriminated against b/c they weren't allowed in? Ofcourse not. If people aren't being adequately repesented w/in mainstream forums it should be no suprise that they will come up w/ something for themselves. If u look in the average American History textbook the pages of filled w/ info about anglo accomplishments and involvement history. Unless the Subject is slaves, Harriet Tubman or MLK, black contributions to society r rarely mentioned even though there have been many. It's important for not just black people but all people to learn the complete history of our country included that of other races. W/out Black history month very little time or attention would be given to Black history. Whereas white history is covered in depth all year long.

23. This guy was hilarious in Freddy Got Fingered.
It's Ok to say what up niggas. All my white friends do and in
front of black friends. All in good fun.
And he was high!

24. I think he was trying to be "cute". I don't think he was using the "n" word Michael Richards style. He did look "high" though. He's kind of kooky. When I lived in NYC, we lived in the same building, and he was kind of kooky and talkative. Friendly and off beat...and in this case stoned on weed.

25. @ Brandon.. you did a really good job clearing that up..

but why are things such as affirmative action taking place at college's??.. i dont understand why this happens...

and also.. why do so many people glorify these rappers all over the radio and tv... when these rappers (in my opinion) are painting a bad image of your race with all the guns, drugs, and the constant use of ebonics?

im not racist in any way....... these are just questions that i have

26. What up N****S!

27. TMZ, this one is on you, having the Kramer Tirade should give you guy alot to laugh at. You got a bunch of blacks and whites acting like idiots calling each other names and trying to defend positions. All this does is bring out the racist on both sides who are as dumb as a box of old rubbers. Real people don't care to keep this dumb race battle going on. That why you keep the Kramer Tirade up there for the black and white bigots which is up to 7720.

28. I agree with #20. There is CELARLY a difference between Anthony Michael Hall greeting his homies, and what Michael Richards said.

Are you THAT STUPID??

29. Why do white people think it's ok to use the word nigger? One day one a white person is going to say that to the wrong black person and they are going to get there ass beat, as they should.

30. I meant CLEARLY.....
