He wrote, “DROWNED IN A HOT TUB. HAHAHAHA” … this whereas linking again to our story.
The tweet wasn’t considered by very many individuals — KB solely has about 5,900 followers or so anyway — however it actually left a nasty style within the mouths of parents who did see it … with many individuals calling him out within the feedback and bashing him for making a joke out of it.
While Kevin is not almost as related as he was within the ’90s/early 2000s … he nonetheless has a well-known connection to mainstream Hollywood via his youthful brother Neal Brennan — from whom he is estranged. Neal, in fact, is the co-creator/author of ‘Chappelle’s Show.’
Neal and Kevin had a falling out years in the past — and the youthful sibling went on to forge a strong path for himself. Neal’s written for tons of reveals, and even has his personal Netflix comedy particular now … whereas Kevin hosts a fairly obscure podcast, and does gigs right here and there.
It bears repeating … Neal is NOT near Kevin — and based mostly on interviews NB has completed of late, the place he was requested about his relationship with Kevin … you’ll be able to inform it is a delicate matter. Based on this response to Perry alone, you will see their personalities are very completely different.
So, in fact, Kevin’s crude remarks listed below are under no circumstances a mirrored image of Neal — who, so far as we will inform, minds his enterprise and focuses on his work … and who would not appear to have talked about Perry or ‘Friends,’ for that matter, very a lot in any respect publicly.
Kevin seems to nonetheless fancy himself standup-adjacent — frequently commenting on mainstream comedians that Neal undoubtedly rubs shoulders with … though, what he pulled right here is much from a laughing matter. Neal would not appear to have reacted to his brother’s put up.
We’ve reached out to him for remark, nonetheless … thus far, no phrase again.
