So if you tuned into KRON this morning to catch Phil Matier (and really, who doesn't love that moustache?), you might have noticed that he was a bit cranky, since a certain be-gelled guest was late arriving. Turns out that it's because, unlike us plebes who were never Paris Hilton's BFF, Gavin was tipped about Dave Chappelle sweeping into town by his homeboy (seriously, he described him as "my good friend") Chris Tucker and was up late laughing at 'the funny.' Sorry, Phil, but Gavin doesn't cut his morning skincare routine short for the likes of you.
That said, Gavin, in the role of Ruthe Stein, dropped the bomb that Tucker is thisclose to signing up for another tour of "Rush Hour" duty. Which is good, because the only radar Chris Tucker has been on recently is the Georgia State Patrol's (Real Video). At this point, Wayne Brady has more edgy black comedian cred than Tucker. But our question is: So Gavin calls for a moratorium on clubs selling the stickiest of the icky, but is on the phone with Smokey from Friday? What gives?
