As I speculated in this post, Pauly Shore's racist diatribe a couple of weeks ago was all to publicize his new movie. The video above proves the whole thing to be a hoax (notice the quick flash of Stereohyped's Technorati page — we're famous!), with Charlie Murphy, Katt Wiliams, and Vivica Fox admitting that they were all in on the joke. Pauly Shore seems pretty proud of himself, but let's really analyze what he accomplished here. He got everyone to think he was racist and reaffirmed the generally held notion that he was an idiot, far fewer people will see this "it was all a joke!" video than saw the original, and, most importantly, there's still not a single soul who's actually going to buy his movie. Long story short — the world now thinks he's racist and Katt Williams is still more successful than he is. Well-thought-out marketing plan, this was not.

Maybe if Pauly Shore were black, Vivica Fox would let him kiss her when it didn't involve a photo-op on the red carpet of the premiere of his surely-awful movie, Pauly Shore's Natural Born Komics , the existence of which explains his publicity-hungry racial diatribe.

Party boy and occasional comedian Pauly Shore is taking a cue from bitter hatemongers and blaming his anemic career on his skin color (or lack thereof). "I need to be black," Shore recently told an interviewer, "because if I was black, I’d be doing good." Well, Pauly. You'd be doing well. And no, you wouldn't.

Shore continued: "White people are screwed. Especially in my industry, they’re screwed. White people are going to be picking cotton within, like, literally within three years." Brilliant! How is this guy not getting hired?
