In an episode with comedian Leslie Jones and Steelo Brim, the three were having a conversation about ‘cancel culture’ and its effects on stand-up comics. Jones stated that she told her assistant to scout through her old tweets and see if she had posted anything that could cause a backlash. She did this due to Hart facing heavy backlash for some of his older tweets that many considered offensive. “Because when they went back and looked at Kevin Hart’s. I literally told my assistant, I said please go back and see what the f**k I was posting 10 years ago and she was like nothing but gigs she was like just gigs and sometimes a funny video.” Said Jones.

This was a hilarious moment of lapse by The Baddest Man On The Planet, who ended up unintentionally misspeaking while praising the stand-up comedian.
