Joe Rogan under fire AGAIN as videos show him laughing at Angelina Jolie's Bell's palsy, mocking Asians
Joe Rogan is being called out yet again amid his already contentious Spotify controversy. In a newly resurfaced clip, the podcast host is seen poking fun at Angelina Jolie's Bell's palsy diagnosis and mocking Asian accents.
A Twitter thread has gone viral featuring the 'Joe Rogan Experience' podcast host, who reportedly has a $100m deal with the streamer, making derogatory remarks about celebrities like Angelina Jolie, as well as trans people and Asians.

A Twitter user, @AlexPattyy, brought up the video and said, "I'm seeing a lot of Joe Rogan's worst comments from the 2010s circulating. I get paid to listen to his podcast @mmfa & want to remind people that he hasn't changed. Here are some of the most hateful things Joe has said in the past year and a half."

The user then shared a video from last month containing some disturbing comments that Joe made in connection to the 46-year-old 'Maleficent' actress, Angelina Jolie and her being diagnosed with the facial paralysis condition Bell’s palsy. Joe called Jolie 'crazy'. He said, "Crazy p***y is the best p***y … She's clearly crazy... She's got Bell's palsy? That's the problem with crazy, dude. Crazy comes with all sorts of neurotic s**t."
In January, Rogan denigrated Angelina Jolie for developing Bell's palsy saying, “There's a rule. Crazy pussy is the best pussy. … She’s clearly crazy.”

More footage and clips of him saying offensive things are resurfacing now. In a clip from October 2021, Joe claimed that people who find jokey comments about "Asian accents" offensive are "retarded." When his guest told him, "You can't say [that]!" the podcaster replied, "But I'm on Spotify. You can get away with it." Another clip, meanwhile, saw him imitating people who speak Mandarin.

Another footage from August 2021 showed Joe discussing trans people. "Transgender people, it's clearly a real thing … It's existed throughout history. There's always been people like that," he noted. "What [author] Douglas Murray was saying is that some of them [in contemporary society] aren't really that. They're just latching onto this need to get attention, or to be special, to stand out, to be a victim."

The UFC color commentator has been under fire after India.Arie shared videos of him using the N-word and calling black people "apes." However, Joe already apologized for his "regretful and shameful" actions. When issuing his apology, Joe claimed that the clips that Arie posted were made up of "out of context" moments from "12 years of conversations" on his "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast. Still, even Rogan himself acknowledged that "it looks f**king horrible."
"I know that to most people, there is no context where a white person is ever allowed to say that word, never mind publicly on a podcast. And I agree with that now, I haven't said it in years," the comedian continued. "It's not my word to use. I am well aware of that now, but for years I used it in that manner... I never used it to be racist because I'm not racist."
