Celebrity Feuds
Face-Off -- Rev vs. Revved Up

The Reverend Al Sharpton and our very own Harvey Levin went head-to-head over RobohoGate.


TMZ used the word "Roboho" two weeks ago in a humorous fashion review to describe an outfit Beyonce wore in performance at the BET Awards. In a statement to TMZ, The Rev said the use of the word was racist and misogynistic. TMZ respectfully disagreed.

Listen to both arguments -- and vote!

31. Al Sharpton is a flipping moron who would find any reason to he could to get his mug on TV. What really saddens me is the "sinister minister" types such as Sharpton are all over the media and only seem to deepen the wounds by holding counter productive dialouges and pointing fingers. Lets start at home folks, change comes from within not from loud mouths like Sharpton.

32. Al Sharpton thinks everyone is racist! He is a pathetic excuse for a man! Get over it ! Slavery was abolished over 100 years ago! You just want something to whine about!

33. As a Black woman tell All to shut the Hell up - AL does not speak for the Black people of the world-He is an embarrassment to our people and has absolutely no permission to speak on behalf of Black people. I got what you were talking about t. It was funny as hell along with being true. Do not answer to Fatass Al Sharpton. Harvey stand your ground. Harvey tell Al Sharpton to go to Hell!! Beyonce's outfit looked liked Roboho outfit. It was so funny.

35. It seems to me that Reverend Sharpton never complained about any comments directed to white people. I guess the only people that count are black in his estimation. There must be a lack of civil rights marches going on lately for him to stop and talk with TMZ.com. I agree that free speech goes both ways but when these mediatiors for the black community only speak up for their own people, once again, the race card is tiresome and old. Where is Jesse Jackson? He's out of a job too. Incidently, what churches are these to "Reverends" affiliated with. Perhaps someone can answer that.

41. TMZ is trying to make light off a serious situation. I'm an african american women who loves TMZ and The rev usually gets on my nerves but on this one i have to say that TMZ is wrong. Your trying to make light of the situation by saying you called Lindsey and Kid Rock "ho's", So since no one complained you basically saying it was ok.... and we should just accept it. And that was some BS saying you were refering to her wardrobe as the ho and not her... If your gonna try and justify what you did please don't try to play your audiance as dumb and stop back peddeling own to the yes RACIST COMMENT

43. Doesn't the Rev. Blowhard have any real Black causes to look in to today? and this idiot ran for President?

44. Come to think of it. Jesse had never had a real job, or CS King has had a real job, Al, have you have a real job. You or Jesse are NOT preachers. You are Rev. of what?? You cetainly don't preach the word of God. Hell, ANyone can become a rev. . That way you don't have to pay taxes. Just like churchs. That stinks. Being a Rev. in many cases is nothing but legal income tax evaders. i
