Kevin Hart slammed celebrity cancel culture after reflecting on his decision to stand down as presenter of the 2019 Oscars in a candid new interview.
In an interview with the The Sunday Times, the 41-year-old actor said fans involved in cancel culture - needed to 'shut the f**k up' when the hostility was based around 'nonsense' remarks.
Hart also looked back on his own career in which he had been 'canceled many times' - he did not appear in his role as host of the 2019 Oscars after tweets and some of his early stand-up routines featuring homophobic comments resurfaced.
Despite apologizing to the LGBTQ community, he refused a demand from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to apologize again, saying at the time that he had addressed the issue enough.
