Seth Rogen doesn’t understand why comedians complain about cancel culture
Seth Rogen said that comedians should accept it when they make ‘terrible’ jokes
Famed comedian and actor Seth Rogen is advising his fellow comedians to not get upset over cancel culture and instead accept their past jokes that proved to be offensive.
In his recent interview on Good Morning Britain, the actor said that comedians should accept it when they make ‘terrible’ jokes that do not age well.
"There are certain jokes that for sure have not aged well, but I think that's the nature of comedy," he said.
"I think conceptually those movies are sound, and I think there's a reason they've lasted as far as people still watching and enjoying them today. Jokes are not things that necessarily are built to last,” he continued.
"To me when I see comedians complaining about this kind of thing, I don't understand what they're complaining about. If you've made a joke that's aged terribly, accept it. And if you don't think it's aged terribly, then say that,” Rogen said.
Rogen further said that receiving criticism is "one of the things that goes along with being an artist, and if you don't like that, then don't be a comedian anymore."
"To me, it's not worth complaining about to the degree I see other comedians complaining about," added Rogen.
