Sharp Edge, Lethal Aim: Chris Rock Brings the Pain to DC
Washington Post - United States - In these YouTubian times, there's a certain peril in conducting a multi-city stand-up comedy tour: Punch lines precede their progenitor. Which is to say, you probably already heard about Chris Rock's take on Hillary Clinton: "I think America's ready for a woman president, I really do -- but does it have to be that woman?" Or that he thinks John McCain is as old as dirt: "I don't need [a president] with a bucket list." And for weeks, the afrosphere's been abuzz over Rock's oh-no-he-didn't take on Barack Obama's biggest handicap: "He has a black wife. . . . If

Chris Rock: No Apologies
The Santa Barbara Independent - Santa Barbara, CA, USA - No Chris Rock fan could have been disappointed with the comedy mega-star’s No Apologies tour stop at the Chumash Casino Friday night.

Rock opened by expressing bewilderment at playing an Indian casino, a location that clearly confused his merchandising team as well. Souvenir “No Apologies” tour T-shirts listed the stop as “Chumash, CA.”

Gervais summarized the plot, saying that he stars as a cop whose old partner retires, making him switch to a partner who is an ex-gang member. Chris Rock commented on this saying, “I wouldn’t call it a buddy cop flick because we’re not really buddies.” You've never actually seen a buddy cop movie, have you, Rock? “It’s kind of Rush Hour meets Shakespeare in Love,” he adds. Nevermind, where could they
