DL Hughley discussed Mel Gibson's infamous 2010 rant in which he wished harm on his ex-girlfriend. Hughley pointed out that Gibson's offensive comments didn't ruin his career because of his immense star power, unlike lesser-known celebrities who faced harsher consequences for their missteps. Comparing Michael Richards' (Kramer from Seinfeld) career downfall after his racist outburst, Hughley emphasized that Richards was not a significant enough figure to withstand the backlash.

Hughley suggested that the public's emotional connection to major stars often shields them from being fully canceled, regardless of their actions. He mentioned other high-profile figures like Bill Cosby, R. Kelly, and Donald Trump, who managed to maintain substantial followings despite their controversies. The conversation highlighted the disparity in how public figures are treated based on their fame, concluding that the audience's deep-rooted admiration can often overpower their transgressions.
