Bill Maher slammed for racially charged joke about Koreans

Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

Bill Maher is on a roll with the racially charged jokes. First, he got slammed for making a joke using the N-word a month ago and now he has made another gaff and this time his joke centered around Koreans.

“This N Korean thing is getting tense! I mean, I think it is, I’m on vaca (vacation),” he tweeted. “The ladies at my nail salon are freaking out, that’s what I know!”

The tweet quickly went viral with many expressing their surprise that he didn’t learn his lesson after last time.

The tweet is still up on Twitter and has gotten plenty of replies.

“B/c Koreans work at nail salons! Hahahahahahah ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaa,” someone replied, mocking Maher.

Another wrote, “This literally reads like a Trump tweet.”

The joke was about the rising tensions between North Korea and the US.

In early June, Maher was invited by Nebraska Senator Ben Sasse to come and work in the fields. Maher’s reply? He said he’s a “house n—-r.”

Maher apologized for that remark, it will be interesting to see if he ever says anything about this latest tweet.
