Margaret Cho loses it on stage (fat, angry, leftist, liberal, lesbian meltdown)

Rape is no laughing matter to Margaret Cho or to the audience that walked out of one of her performances on Saturday night.

Cho, 47, performed at the Stress Factory comedy club in New Brunswick, NJ, on Saturday to a sold-out crowd, but not a happy one. Witnesses tell Page Six that Cho opened her set by talking about Garry Shandling’s death and her own rape instead of telling jokes.

“She kept on talking about rape and how bad rape is, and it evidently pissed off a few people in the audience,” an audience member told us. “She really got into it with the hecklers. It turned ugly and it just got brutal. People were walking out like crazy.”

“I don’t know what happened in between shows Saturday night, but she was so out of it that she couldn’t even walk to the stage for the 9:45 show. She needed to be helped [up] by her boyfriend. Then she started her set, and every other word was ‘like’ and ‘umm,’ and it seemed like she was trying to remember her act as she went along,” the insider added. “A lot of what she was saying was her actual standup material, but she kept forgetting the punchlines, so she just repeated [herself] over and over again. It took about 10 minutes until the audience really started to chatter, and no one heckled her at first. Then when she started to tell the same story for the third time in 15 minutes (maybe even less), people had enough and started to leave.

A search of her dressing room might reveal "what happened between shows." The audience didn't walk out because she was talking about rape. They walked out because they were expecting to hear a comedy routine, but instead were listening to the ramblings of someone who was completely incoherent. We may be reading about her "tragic, unexpected passing" in the not too distant future.

Let me guess, her “routine’ went something like this......”Republicans are dumb.......I hate Republicans..........Republicans are dumb.”

Is there any standup comedienne who hasn’t been raped? I don’t know, I’ve managed to live in NYC for 40 years, in and out of show business, in and out of horrible buildings and elevators, worked for sleazebags, but never managed to get raped, assaulted, mugged or hurt in any way. Yet very damned comic has been sexually assaulted!

You probably had more sense than to get passed-out drunk with guys, find yourself in bed with a guy the next morning, and thus decide you were "raped".

[Blennos]

It worked. I can see again! Thank you.

Stress Factory owner Vinnie Brand released a statement on Monday...

LOL! I know Vinnie - not well though. He was in my fraternity but was a few years older and hardly around anymore after I got there. His statement was so supportive, which will picked up by other comedians he may try to book in the future. In the real world, he was no doubt cursing this psycho because he had to give back money from his own pocket.

She’s so ugly, two guys broke into her apartment, she cried “Rape!” and they both yelled, “NOOOO!” - Rodney Dangerfield.

[Fred Hayek]

That is what passes as humor in Minnesota.

Is there no topic under the sun that isn’t about pimping your big orange muppet god? This thread is about a melting down lesbian beast comedian. There’s really plenty of other threads where you can vent about that trumpist apostate Cruz.

Seriously, there are only two fat Koreans on the planet: Margaret and Kim Jong-Un.

Probably. Plus some women I knew had really bad judgment when walking streets late at night. I had a friend who would argue or cajole with creeps who tried to talk to her while she walked her little dog. I learned early on to speed up my walk, not make eye contact or cross the street the minute a creep engaged.

[hsmomx3]

She is my friend’s sister in law and my friend is conservative!!!

Thanks DCBryan1.

Everyone should have the same size
glass, as a consequence they will
be very tiny ones.

She looks like Ken Jeong.

If I were forced to spend 10 minutes either kissing Ken Jeong on the lips or merely looking at Margaret Cho, I would choose the former. And I'm a guy.

Found the engineer.

[pluvmantelo]

I’m confused. The article mentions a boyfriend. Can a woman be a lesbian but still have a boyfriend?
