Piers Morgan

Dr. Marc Lamont Hill was a guest on Piers Morgan Uncensored this week to discuss Shiloh Hendrix, the woman who called a Black boy the n-word and launched a fundraiser and gaining over $700,00. Piers Morgan urged a white guest panelist to use the N-word in front of Marc Lamont Hill, who stopped the act and framed it as an attack.
Marc Lamont Hill shared the clip in question on his Instagram account at the exact moment where Morgan tried to get cultural commentator Lilly Gaddis to say the N-word. Gaddis has been supportive of Hendrix and says she uses the N-word slur frequently herself.
Morgan, with a grin, asked Gaddis repeatedly to say the slur before Hill jumped ahead of her and said that he would not be subjected to the verbal assault on the program. Ahead of that moment, Gaddis attempts to illustrate that her use of the N-word slur is part of her right to free speech, which made Hill grimace in the video.
As Hill blasted Morgan for the stunt, he also threw fellow panelist and Fresh and Fit Podcast co-host Myron Gaines under the bus and referred to Gaines as an “Uncle Tom.”
Here is what Hill had to say about the moment on Instagram:
The other day, I was asked to appear on Piers Morgan to discuss the recent fundraising campaign for the white woman who used the N-word against a five-year-old autistic Black child. It wasn’t until the show started that I realized I’d be sharing space with Myron Gaines (racist, misogynist, antisemite who pretends to be a Black American) and Lilly Gaddis, a proudly self-proclaimed racist who admits to frequently using the N-word. At the end of our debate, Piers dared her to use the N-word on the show. While I understand that his intention was to expose her as a racist —and get ratings for shock value— I felt compelled to shut it down.

For the past few weeks Kanye West has been doing interviews and making appearances in the most random livestreams and ultimately found himself alongside right-wing favorite journalist, Piers Morgan, but unfortunately for Piers, it was a short-lived interview.
Sitting alongside his new buddy, Sneako, Kanye West agreed to be interviewed by the British media personality only for things to go left after Morgan not only called him by his original name instead of “Ye,” but even dared to miscount the number of followers Kanye has on his social media pages.
After going on a quick back-and-forth about Kanye being at peace in his life as opposed to the anger he displays on X formerly known as Twitter towards, well, everyone, Kanye took issue with Piers stating that he had 32 million followers saying he was taking “inches off my d*ck.”
Morgan then went on to correct himself by saying it was 33 million (big difference), Kanye decided to Kanye and went on a mini rant about how impactful his music has been on the lives of everyone (including Piers) and accused the media (again, including Piers) of hating on people who “put out love” which prompted Piers to ask “What are you talking about?!”
After Morgan asked the question that was basically on everyone’s mind at that point, Ye bowed out of the interview and said he’d return when Morgan was able to count.
End scene.
Even Sneako was left bewildered by what just happened before having to do a little impromptu interview with Morgan himself and tried to clean up the mess that Ye left behind telling Piers “You know what you were doing” suggesting that Morgan was purposely patronizing Kanye by calling him “Kanye” and misrepresenting the number of social media followers he had.
Morgan responded by saying that the duo “d*cked us around” before the interview and called it a waste of time and money. Taking his aim (and anger) towards an unsuspecting Sneako, Morgan asked him how he feels hanging around a pro-Nazi and antisemitic Kanye West. Sneako tried his best to deflect, but to no avail as Morgan came with receipts (X posts) and left Sneako reaching for answers to questions that he wasn’t prepared for.
After the two argued and spoke over each other throughout the remainder of the interview, Morgan called Kanye an antisemite and “sniveling little coward” before Sneako walked off on the interview himself.
As crazy as this interview was, we have to admit it was pretty hilarious all things considered.

A few days, ago Jaguar Wright gave right-wing conspiracy theorists a lot to work with on social media. The controversial crooner appeared on conservative media darling Piers Morgan’s Uncensored show and unloaded on the likes of P. Diddy, Jay-Z and Beyoncé, accusing them all of being in the same league of sadistic abusers in the music industry.
With many on social media having already accused Jay-Z of such acts following the arrest of P. Diddy, they viewed Wright’s comments as validation of their beliefs and immediately took to X (formerly Twitter) to boast about the segment and further call for the downfall of Hova and company. While Wright has been suggesting that Jay-Z is “worse” than Diddy for quite some time now, giving her such a platform to continue to spew her slander caught the attention of Jay-Z’s legal team who promptly informed Piers Morgan that he done f*cked up now.
On Tuesday (Oct. 8), Morgan took to his show and issued a public apology for Jaguar Wright’s comments on his broadcast and let everyone know that lawyers for Jay-Z told him to do so. Taking to his show, Morgan explained that regardless to whom or what, people like Jaguar Wright have built a following “with or without shows like mine” and acknowledged that she made some “serious allegations about Jay-Z and Beyoncé.”
That’s when Morgan stated that Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s lawyers “contacted us to say those claims were totally false and have no basis in fact, and we therefore comply with the legal request to cut them from the original interview.”
Though Morgan said cutting segments out of his show is not something they practice, he did recognize that “There are legal limits on us too and we apologize to Jay-Z and Beyoncé.”
Yeah, Jay-Z-hating conspiracy theorists are going to have a field day with this one. Morgan himself set it up in a way where he seemed reluctant to comply with the legal request but had no choice, so y’all already know how this is going to play out on social media.
Check out Piers Morgan’s apology video, and let us know your thoughts on the situation in the comments section below.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z have received a public apology from Piers Morgan after the polarizing talk-show host aired inflammatory allegations about them on his program. About a week after interviewing Jaguar Wright on Piers Morgan Uncensored — during which the singer-songwriter called the Roc Nation founder and Sean “Diddy” Combs “monsters,” and claimed that the famous […]

As Rasheed Wallace reportedly said, even the sun shines on a dog’s ass twice a day and Candace Owens is a perfect example of that phrase. Candace Owens was a recent guest on the Piers Morgan Uncensored show and in their discussion, the conservative pundit checked the host on the nature of the Israel-Hamas and the media’s reluctance to refer to the happenings as genocide.
Candace Owens, 35, sat down with Piers Morgan, 59, and the tense discussion surrounding the Isreal-Hamas war turned towards Owens making note of the fact that journalists are seemingly fearful of critiquing Israel’s actions. At one point, Owens included Morgan in that group.
“You too, Piers, seem a little fearful to critique Isreal and coming off as trying to be a little understanding of everything,” Owens said. Morgan, perhaps anticipating this, dodged the assertion. For her part, Owens clearly articulated what the word genocide means and did manage to get Morgan to throw a very soft jab at Israel’s PM, Benjamin Netanyahu.
The 90-minute conversation between Morgan and Owens touched on her leaving The Daily Wire, her political positions, her connection with Ye FKA Kanye West, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and much more.
Check out the clip in question below and keep scrolling to see reactions to the Israel-Hamas segment. Also, let’s be clear, we’re not on her side about much of anything. On this point, however, she called it straight and that’s all we’re noting.

A former bodyguard for Diddy is speaking out once more, claiming that he saw the mogul assault his exes repeatedly.
As reactions to Diddy’s purported apology video over beating former girlfriend Cassie Ventura continue to pour in, his former bodyguard Roger Bonds is now speaking out again about what he alleges were acts of abuse inflicted on Ventura and the late Kim Porter. Bonds appeared on the latest episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored on Monday (May 20) to talk about what he witnessed.
“It didn’t surprise me when I saw it because I’ve seen things of this nature before,” Bonds said about three minutes into the interview. “I’ve gotten in between things of this nature before. This was back in 2012.”

“He’s up to the same games,” Bonds continued. “He never mentioned Cassie’s name in that apology, so to me he didn’t Ahumble himself enough. I think he said what people wanted to hear, not what he felt.” When Morgan asked him how many times had he witnessed Diddy aka Sean Combs act in that manner towards women, Bonds answered, “Around four or five times. I’ve seen him get really physical, grab them up,” Bonds added. “I seen him get into wrestling and punching matches. Sometimes, I felt like what are you upset about? It’s a deeper anger when you are hitting and punching a woman in that type of manner.”
Bonds would remark on Diddy’s personality in the interview. “He’s a king manipulator,” he stated. “He can manipulate anything and anyone. Money and power is what he’s all about. he has a god syndrome.” Bonds would also talk about Kim Porter fighting back against the Bad Boy Records founder’s attacks, and how he wanted Bonds to ignore his actions. “There was this dark side of him that he was trying to hide and that he wanted me to say didn’t exist. And I can’t say that it didn’t exist if it did exist,” Bonds said.
Diddy has been under intense scrutiny as there are now two lawsuits filed against him for sexual assault, in addition to dealing with a federal raid on his homes in Miami and Los Angeles. But Bonds feels like this is just the beginning. “I feel like there’s going to be other people that come forward,” he said.
Bonds was named in the lawsuit that Cassie filed against Diddy, which was settled a day later, in late 2023.

It appears Piers Morgan’s social media was hacked on Monday (Dec. 26) to take aim at Ed Sheeran, Queen Elizabeth II and more.
In a series of since-deleted tweets, the hackers referred to the “Shivers” crooner as a “ginger f—er” and blasted the late monarch by tweeting, “f–k the queen” while changing Morgan’s profile pic to a photo of himself laughing with Her Royal Majesty. Another public figure who came under attack was British-American boxer Andrew Tate after the hacked account erroneously claimed he had been killed in Dubai.
“In case you were wondering, @piersmorgan has been hacked,” the official account for Morgan’s talk show, Piers Morgan Uncensored, tweeted the following day. “Any chance of getting him back, @elonmusk?”
As of press time, Morgan’s account had been wiped clean of most of the abusive tweets besides a Bitcoin app scam and a blurry photo of an unnamed young man captioned with more abusive language.
For his part, Sheeran was likely nonplussed by the controversy, particularly considering he doesn’t use Twitter and leaves the app in the hands of his official team as “Ed Sheeran HQ.”
Instead, the singer had plenty to celebrate as of late. Earlier this month, Billboard reported that Sheeran sold more tickets than any other music act in 2022 thanks to the massive success of his ongoing Mathematics Tour. (Over 60 dates across Europe, he moved a grand total of three million tickets.) The trek will head stateside with its giant, rotating stage on May 6 starting at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Tex.
Check out Morgan’s plea to get his Twitter account back below.
