Dave Chappelle says he doesn’t worry about getting cancelled amid controversial special

Comedian Dave Chapelle says he doesn't worry about getting cancelled.

The stand-up comedian faced heavy criticism after the release of his latest special The Closer was released last week in which he mocks trans people.

During a screening of his special, Mr Chappelle joked about efforts to get him and his special cancelled.

"If this is what being is about, I love it," Chappelle said.

During his special, the comedian also allegedly defended Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and said he was “team Terf" too.
