Confronted by $15/hr. “volunteer” protesters.
The wife of a friend of mine was playing poker at a Las Vegas casino. At the table was the comedian Redd Foxx. Redd, especially while drinking heavily, was known to badger women.
The friends wife was overweight and Red was giving her a rough time over the excess poundage. The woman from the New York City area, was known not to take crap from anyone, celebrity or not!
Jabbing a finger toward Redd’s face she said, “Now Redd, Sure I’m fat, but I can go on a diet and loose weight. BUT REDD, YOU’RE UGLY AND YOU’LL ALWAYS BE UGLY”!
Nothing more was heard from Foxx the rest of the session. Brilliant comedian, great timing...BUT JERK WHEN DRUNK!
