Donnell Rawlings doesn’t believe cracking jokes about the coronavirus is off-limits, but the pandemic definitely has him thinking bigger picture.
The “Chappelle’s Show” star tells TMZ … it doesn’t matter what the source material is — in the comedy world, it’s never inappropriate or too soon for a funny observation.
Donnell admits he’s been making light of the COVID-19 crisis himself and got called out for it, but he says he’s simply accepting the reality of the situation … and trying to make people laugh.
To his bigger point … Donnell says the coronavirus and resulting fear of death are waking people up to what’s truly important in life.
Listen to him explain it, though. Words to live by … no joke.
