Rob O’Reilly Banned From Carnival Cruise Comedy Set For Using The ‘N-Word’

White comedian Rob O’Reilly was fired from his stand-up act aboard a Carnival cruise ship after a viral video exposed him for repeatedly using the n-word during his show last weekend. Pamela Frilot, a TikTok user who recorded it, posted the video to the platform of O’Reilly using the word multiple times.

Frilot continued with a follow-up post to explain what happened in the since muted video. More footage that came out on Twitter showed exactly what Frilot recounted of O’Reilly ordering people who were offended by his language to leave. Disturbingly, many people in the crowd clapped. 

Thankfully, as reported by TMZ, Carnival fired the comedian from the rest of his sets, and he was banned from performing through the company again.

The cruise ship line said, “We do not tolerate this language or behavior. The person in question is no longer welcome on Carnival ships, and the rest of his scheduled appearances have been canceled.”

With the person in question being O’Reilly, after he was exposed for his offensive language, Twitter users continued to dig up other racist tweets that Rob O’Reilly had on his deleted Twitter.
