Kim Zolciak Slams Marlon Wayans for Hurtful "White Chicks" Joke
Marlon Wayans made a joke at Kim Zolciak’s expense.
She hit back at him in the comments.
Is this mean, is this funny, or is it … both?
So, The Real Housewives of Atlanta had its reunion special. As usual, there was drama.
This time, as NeNe Leakes had previously hinted, Kim was at the center of a vortex of criticisms from various Housewives.
(All of this despite having been reduced to a mere Friend of the Housewives!)
You know how sometimes makeup and lighting and a facial expression can have a really unflattering effect on an otherwise attractive person?
There may have been some of that going on with Kim’s look.
And Marlon Wayans could not resist making this joke.
Coupled with a less-than-flattering screenshot of Kim Zolciak from the Reunion Special, he wrote:
“No we are not in production on White Chicks 2. The f–k?!”
White Chicks, of course, was a widely lampooned 2004 comedy about two black male FBI agents who go undercover … as white women.
Part of the running joke for that film was that the two men did not look convincing in their disguises.
The effect of the makeup on their faces made them look more like horrifying androids. There were some uncanny valley elements to their look.
As you can see in this image:
Obviously, comparing an actual white woman to White Chicks was very unkind.
And the 39-year-old reality star thought so, too.
Kim took the comments to share her displeasure with Marlon, writing:
“Was always a super big fan of yours and my kids loved you.”
She continues, and shows a bit of vulnerability.
“This hurts but I guess its all for laughs.”
“You should hope & pray that one day a grown man never takes this kind of dig at the expense of your daughter,” Kim concluded.
That’s sort of odd to say, since his joke didn’t target one of Kim’s daughters, but Kim herself.
“Grow up dude”
It can be easy to forget that reality stars are real people with real feelings.
Kim’s lips may be fake, but her heart is 100% organic.
A celebrity like Marlon Wayans should know that celebrities can see and be saddened by cruel things posted to social media. Especially if the one doing the posting is also a celebrity.
It was, to be clear, a bad photo.
Was Marlon being awful by posting it?
Or does Kim’s status as a reality star and the fact that the image is real and undoctored make it fair game?
Different people will have different opinions, of course.
But it looks like Marlon is standing by his joke. Because that post is, as of Monday afternoon, still up.
It should be of no surprise to anyone following Kim’s feud with NeNe Leakes to learn that NeNe found the post hilarious, and replied with a number of emojis to express that.
One imagines that NeNe would be less amused if Marlon had decided to make a joke at her expense.
But that would be true of most people.

Marlon Wayans" Hilarious Take On Richard Pryor and Marlon Brando"s Hookup
Marlon Wayans is taking the news about Richard Pryor and Marlon Brando hooking up in stride — and he’s even got a pretty good idea of how it happened. We got Marlon Wednesday night at Madeo in WeHo and told him Pryor’s widow…
Richard Pryor and Marlon Brando: Yup, They Had Sex!
Richard Pryor died in 2005.
Marlon Brando died in 2004.
Yet the former iconic comedian and legendary actor are in the news this week for one unexpected reason:
They apparently had sex… with each other!
This surprising connection was first mentioned by Quincy Jones in a wide-ranging interview with Vulture, during which the music producer said the following of Brando:
“He was the most charming motherf-cker you ever met. He’d f-ck anything. Anything!
“He’d f–k a mailbox. James Baldwin. Richard Pryor. Marvin Gaye.”
Naturally, such a statement got the Internet talking and wondering about the film star, who won two Academy Awards and is considered by some to be the best actor of all-time.
Just a few hours after this quote went viral, though, Pryor’s widow came out and put an end to the speculation.
She actually confirmed the sexual relationship!
Said Jennifer Lee to TMZ when asked about the rumored dalliance:
“It was the ’70s! Drugs were still good, especially quaaludes. If you did enough cocaine, you’d f-ck a radiator and send it flowers in the morning.”
Well… okay then!
Pryor’s widow added that Pryor would find it hilarious that Jones spilled these beans if he were alive today and that he had no shame about his bisexuality.
Pryor and Lee were married in the early 1980s and again in 2001; they were together up until the stand-up’s death in 2005.
Altogether, Pryor was married to five different woman and had seven children.
Brando, meanwhile, was married three times and fathered 11 children.
They may have carried on an affair with each other at one point, but they very much got around overall. That much is clear.
Back in 1976, speaking to a French journalist, Brando happily opened up about his sexuality.
“Like a large number of men, I, too, have had homosexual experiences, and I am not ashamed,” he said at the time, adding:
“I have never paid much attention to what people think about me. But if there is someone who is convinced that Jack Nicholson and I are lovers, may they continue to do so.
“I find it amusing.”
So it sounds like he would also be amused by Jones telling the world about his banging of Pryor.
To put this in context, for those unfamiliar with Richard Pryor and Marlon Brando and the levels of fame each achieved back in the 1960s and 1970s:
This news would be akin to learning that Jerry Seinfeld had slept with Tom Hanks.
Hence the reaction across social media in response to Pryor’s widow’s admission.
The confirmation even reached actor Don Cheadle, for instance, who joked on Twitter when asked if he had slept with any male celebrities:
“nah. that’s not my thing. but if it was, yeah, brando back in the day could get it.”
In his chat with Vulture, meanwhile, Jones also said he knows who killed John F. Kennedy and said he once dated Ivanka Trump.
In other words: this Pryor/Brando bombshell may have been the least interesting part of his Q&A!
