Netflix defends booking Louis C.K. for its festival, citing his popularity and ticket sales despite past misconduct allegations.
Kanye West sold out Inglewood, California's SoFi Center and took in a reported $33 million less than a year since he released a song called 'Heil Hitler.' West's apology for his antisemitism was evidently enough for his LA fans, and no doubt some went because of the antisemitism.
In his typical style, C.K. opened with a gut-puncher to a sold-out house of nearly 3,000 seats and had the audience roaring into the night. I got an AIDS test today, he said as the crowd murmured. I haven't had sex in years. I just wanted some good news. The audience burst into laughter. As they quieted, C.K. took a beat and said, Turns out I have AIDS.
