OSCAR HOST CHRIS ROCK SHOCK: ABORTION IN AMERICA IS 'BEAUTIFUL'
Shock Oscar host Chris Rock recently declared that abortion in the United States is a "beautiful thing!"
"Abortion, it's beautiful, it's beautiful abortion is legal. I love going to an abortion rally to pick up women, cause you know they are f**king," Rock said during his club routine.
Veteran members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have grown concerned over the choice of Chris Rock to represent the Academy before a worldwide audience, well-placed insiders claim.
"This is not who we are," said one top source from Los Angeles.
ROCK'S 35 F-WORDS A MINUTE
Oscar Telecast Producer Gil Cates has tapped Rock to pump up the ratings, but not all member are convinced the controversial Rock will entertain and inspire the audience.
During a recent rant, Rock blasted heartland Americans.
"Weird white guys getting overly patriotic, with their f**king flag hats on," Rock said.
"I am not scare of al Qaeda, I am scare of f**king al Cracker."
One audio recording captures Rock firing off more than 35 F-words per minute!
In the past few weeks, Rock has directed his attention at the Academy awards.
In an interview with ENTERTIANMENT WEEKLY, Rock claimed: "I never watched the Oscars. Come on, it's a fashion show. What straight black man sits there and watches the Oscars? Show me one!"
Rock added: "Awards for art are f---ing idiotic."
Rock late Monday said the comments were taken out of context.
