Katt Williams appeared on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay show earlier this week and proceeded to take a blowtorch to the entire industry in a few short minutes. Williams implied that Diddy offered him $50 million for a lewd act, he also called out Joe Rogan for never inviting him on his show to which Rogan responded and extended an invitation.
Later in the interview, Katt Williams accused Cedric the Entertainer of stealing his jokes. It then took the internet all of five minutes to find evidence of Cedric the Entertainer stealing jokes.
Here is Cedric the Entertainer, ripping a joke, from Designing Women‘s season 3 all the way back in 1988… Maybe he figured 36 years nobody would remember?
Comedian Roy Wood Jr. was asked to weigh in on the situation but declined, saying it’s not his place:
Interestingly, Jackass! star and comedienne Rachel Wolfson revealed that Cedric the Entertainer currently has a new scheme to steal jokes. As part of a new ‘comedy contest’, he’s asking comedians to submit jokes for the ‘chance’ at $1,000. Which means all but one would be giving them to Cedric for free:

Suffice it to say that none of this looks good for Cedric Antonio Kyles. And the industry is now on high alert for his accused joke theft, an industry that does not take kindly at all to stealing jokes.
