TORREI HART speaks on the controversy surrounding KEVIN HART'S OLD TWEETS


Despite the drama they've gone through in recent years, Torrei Hart is standing by her ex husband after he was accused of being homophobic.
The 40-year-old comedienne / entrepreneur set the record straight during a brief interview with Inside Edition. "He's not. He's a comedian and he was just making a joke," she explained.
Going back to jokes her ex Kevin Hart made about the possibility of their son being gay in his 2010 stand up comedy show Seriously Funny, Torrei Hart added, "I don't think, of course, he wants a gay son of course, you want your son to be like you but I think definitely if our son was to turn up gay I don't think he would be homophobic about it. I think he would embrace him and love him the same."
Shutting down requests and demands for her ex to apologize, Hart explained, "I stand with him, I don't think he should have apologized. I think they should still have him host. I mean, who are they going to get? Mother Thersea?"
A mere 24-hours after Kevin Hart was announced as the host of the Academy Awards, old tweets of the comedian making anti-LGBTQ comments surfaced. After issuing a video explaining why he would not apologize, Hart announced his decision to step down from hosting the show, and issued an apology to the LGBTQ community.

KEVIN HART steps down as HOST of the 91st ACADEMY AWARDS




Renowned comedian and comedic actor Kevin Hart was recently announced as host of the upcoming 91st annual Academy Awards, and Thursday evening he had stepped down.

The turn of events followed outcry over previous anti-gay tweets, and comments Hart made during stand-up routines nearly 10 years ago. Some of the tweets were feverishly deleted throughout the day on Thursday, leading to an Instagram video from the comedian in which he stated...

“My team calls me, ‘Oh my God, Kevin, everyone’s upset by tweets you did years ago,'” he said in that video. “Guys, I’m nearly 40 years old. If you don’t believe that people change, grow, evolve as they get older, I don’t know what to tell you. If you want to hold people in a position where they always have to justify the past, do you. I’m the wrong guy, man.”


Those words rang as a defiant non-apology for many in the LGBTQ community. Hours later, Hart resurfaced with another video stating that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences had given him an ultimatum: Apologize or we’ll find a new host.

“I chose to pass on the apology,” the 39-year-old actor-comedian said in the video. “The reason why I passed is because I’ve addressed this several times. This is not the first time this has come up. I’ve addressed it. I’ve spoken on it. I’ve said where the rights and wrongs were. I’ve said who I am now versus who I was then. I’ve done it. I’m not going to continue to go back and tap into the days of old when I’ve moved on and I’m in a completely different place in my life.”
Less than two hours later, Hart announced via Twitter that he was removing himself from the gig, and he finally offered the apology everyone was looking for.

“I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year’s Oscars,” he wrote. “This is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists. I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past. I’m sorry that I hurt people. I am evolving and want to continue to do so. My goal is to bring people together not tear us apart. Much love and appreciation to the Academy. I hope we can meet again.”

Now the Academy finds itself in the unenviable position of casting a net once again to fill a role that clearly no one wanted in the first place; the Dec. 5 announcement of Hart as emcee was quite late in the game, and sources say the organization has had more trouble than usual finding someone to front their show.

The Academy has yet to respond to a request for comment.
