Basketmouth Under Fire For Molest Joke On Twitter by Nobody: 4:47pm On Jan 05, 2014
So, earlier on today, Basketmouth shared this tweet which to him seemed harmless.
Unfortunately, it pissed a whole lot of people off.


Basketmouth has since deleted the tweet and has apologized but reactions continue to pour in.
Some people are strongly asking brands for whom Basketmouth is an ambassador to dump him.
A Zimbabwean mother of four even wrote in from the States lashing out at the comedian.

A hashtag #RapeIsNoJoke has already been created to pursue the cause.

What is wrong with the joke? Its very funny grin grin



5 years later, I'm shocked that I could make such a comment. The joke was distasteful and totally wrong.

Twitter has given a lot of jobless people a medium to show their joblessness. What was so bad about that joke? I've heard worse from foreign comedians

In as much as that subject is a sore one...I think he meant no harm. Buh the pple or families of dose hu hv been victims will think differently so deleting it was the sensible thing to do as well as the apology. Buh calling fr glo to terminate his contract? That's crazy...pple thinking like that are jobless and full of malice.

Ra'pe is not a joke but what about stealing? A guy spends his hard earned money to take a girl out but instead of telling him she is not interested in any intimacy from the beginning she spends his money on food and clothes like a hungry wh0re.
That joke has been passed around since 2012 and no one complained but now that a celebrity is involved, his contract with glo and MTV should be terminated.....Bad Belle Orisirisi.
