Train Wrecks
Andy Dick -- The New "Kramer"?

Andy DickAndy Dick hasn't learned anything from the Michael Richards incident.

According to sources, the hopped-up comedian hopped onstage Saturday at L.A.'s Improv comedy club and dropped the n-bomb on a room full of stunned clubgoers.

Andy was heckling comedian Ian Bagg during his routine, when Dick allegedly got out of his seat, jumped onstage and began joking with Bagg. The subject of Michael Richards came up, but the two comics quickly moved past it. As Dick exited the stage, he suddenly grabbed the mic and shouted at the crowd, "You're all a bunch of niggers!"

Calls to Dick's rep were not immediately returned.

UPDATE: TMZ has received a statement from The Improv acknowledging the incident: "The Improv is aware of Andy Dick's behavior on Saturday night. Our policy is that material deemed offensive by both famous and up and coming comedians is judged on a case by case basis. In this particular case, Mr. Dick was commenting on a current event. Was it intelligent? No. Was it funny? No. But was it racist? No. It was not directed at any audience member in particular and although it was in bad taste -- it was a comment on the Michael Richards fiasco."

31. Andy Dick's put on the gay as part of his act. He has one kid with his ex-wife and two with his current girlfriend. I know, I know he does act very gayish but he puts in on to attrack them to his comdey. He's really not as dumb as he seems but he does way too many drugs and drinks like a fish. Plus he's not funny IMO. The N-word is never funny no matter who uses it, be they white, black or green.

32. Well Mr Dick I think you have about reached your height of popularity and from here its all down. Your hope for being a national or global superstar has been dashed, not just with this recent stunt but its been coming.. I thank you for sealing your fate and us not having to see you hosting or otherwise making public appearances that are sponsored by, or funded by Groups with the real money in this Industry. They wont touch you nor want their name near your own.

Off color pay per view types might be interested, but not the mainstream.

Bye bye Andy

36. It is just a word people. Relax.

Every other word is ok except for this one. Please. Come on. Who cares.

Everyone just do the right thing and go about your life and stop worrying about this.

I think that is what Andy Dick is trying to say. Andy Dick is alot smarter than most of the people posting on here.

You guys are too sensitive and none too bright.

Have you seen Borat?

Sasha Cohen is a Jew yet he plays a jew hater in the movie.

That way you take the power away from the racists by making fun of it.

You people are acting dumb and way too serious.

40. to all of u idiots who think it should be ok to call someone that u really need to think again. sure it's just a word but the injustice, hatred, and history that our culture behind that word can't be ignored.
i can cringe when i hear people of all races use it it a joking manner and sometimes laugh. HOWEVER i still remember being an innocent lil kid about 8 and remember the store owner telling me to get my N***** ass out of his store...when my white dad was around across the store prepared to spend our moner there.
NOW i'd love to hear someone tell me that it's just a word get over it.
and btw, that was only 20 years ago.....not that long

41. Entrodelflego -

You have it backwards. Use of the word N***** in almost any context is very funny. In Fact any racial stereotyping and humour is very very funny.

I am a fan of racial humor and bringing light to sterotypes in comedy or any medium.

Racial commentary & humor provides enlightenment and discussion one way or another.

If it is ridiculous it brings that to light and makes the person look foolish. If it seems to be true it also brings that to light and makes you ask why.

There are differences and similarities among the people of the world. To deny and ignore that is silly.

To focus on that exclusively is also wrong.

But there is a middle ground. Making rac (ial) jokes or comments is not always rac (ists)

Those who can't see the difference are not that smart. It's as simple as that.
