Paula Deen Uses The N Word - Wishes There Was Slavery

I'm not sure how much more Paula Deen's career can take. If she is not kicked off Food Network forever, then there is something wrong with the producers there. Under oath, Paula Deen admitted she uses the N word. Not used it once or it might have slipped out here and there on accident, but actually uses the word. That should be enough to get her fired and for no one to ever cook any of her recipes except at KKK meetings. However, there is more. Paula also admitted that once she was planning a wedding party and wanted only black waiters and wanted them to play the role of slaves. Yeah, she said it. Paula said all of this as part of a deposition she gave because of the lawsuit that one of Paula's former employees filed against Paula and her brother. The employee claimed Paula called her the N word and that Paula's brother sexually harassed her.  According to The Enquirer, Paula said her brother is a coke head and an alcoholic. Oh, and is addicted to porn. Great guy to go in business with!!

Butter Bitch!

some people are missing a couple of operating software updates

MISCH said...

o.k Paula off with your head..
never thought you were this stupid

TotallyDistracted said...

I can't believe some people still use that word today. Indeed @Beta, she needs a software update asap.

LottaColada said...

Ok, today really is "piss of your readers" day at CDaN. Kudos to whoever called it earlier.

Tempestuous Grape said...

I'm not a big fan of hers, and I am a staunch anti-racist, but it's The fucking Enquirer for fucks sake. I'd like to see a transcript or something first before beheading the old coot.

greenmountaingal said...

I hope she chokes on her fried butter. Asshole.

Unknown said...

Paula, I call you CUNT.

She just admitted that the lawsuit is justified. Honey, I hope your deep fried pockets run deep. cause you're about to pay up!

.robert said...

There will always be racist people but wanting slave-servants at a wedding, jeez....

I'm trying to picture that and wondering who would want to attend that wedding.

megan00m said...

Wonder what her pal Oprah thinks?

Rose said...

Any more info like a real source or link? Why was she under oath? I find her disgusting yet I'd be more comfortable judging or mocking her if I knew that the story is true.

Not to say it isn't, it sounds familiar, but I don't like to be one of those people who believe everything they read just because it's on the internet.

Originally Enty used to provide links or sources and that would be nice so we can read more about it.

Anon said...

Whitewomen....nothing new here.

Munch said...

So how long before she releases her own branded spread "I Can't Believe I Can't Say N*gger"?

Nasty racist old boot deserves to lose any contracts she may still be clinging on to.

@just curious - whitewomen? Is that all white women or just the ones whispering in your head? You really think it's OK to use a racist comment about a racist comment? WTF?

Gossip Marmalade said...

Paula has quite the drug habit herself

LSC said...

guess paula deen v.2 didn't work out so well

Exactly what good would it have done Paula to lie? At least she admits that she uses the word, and that she did the things she was accused of. She doesn't hide behind anyone. She puts her crazy right out there on the front porch. Not that I care for what she does, I don't -- but honesty I admire in any form.

I was raised in the South my bigoted father and his family and by a slightly bigoted mother. It's damn close to common in this country (and not just in the South. I live in NJ now and I am appalled at what I hear from people's mouths) but thank God I am breaking that tradition. Me and my daughter aren't bigoted, racist or prejudiced and I hope that this generation will be the last one that is.

figgy said...

Haha Perfect Beta!

witwritergirl said...

Dear God Paula, shut up. Will never watch her show again.

figgy said...

Yes @Munch, @justcurious Is Known For Her Incessant comments About How All White People Are Racist.

Haha Perfect Beta!

Stick some butter up your.. Nevermind, she's not worth it..

Oopsy_Daisy said...

Unfortunately racism seems to be growing again. Just read Twitter and it's enough to make one want to ex-pat the US.

AKM said...

This Southern gal is actually surprised and not at all happy about this. Makes me want to trash her cookbooks that I own, assuming it's true.

lostathome said...

Race and weight shaming are on par with each other

lostathome said...

While I don't agree with her views, what she does in her own home doesn't need to come to light, just to bring someone down. I'm sure we all say worse from time to time. She needs to learn to keep her mouth shut.

I think her show should have been cancelled long ago. Cook books are enough IMO.

Unknown said...

Admire? That's ridiculous. So if a murderer murders. Someone and says he y'all I did it ...that makes it ok!? She is everything that is wrong with this country. Uneducated fat bloated guts filled with racism!

FlirtyChick74 said...

I'm sad to know she's like this. I loved going to her restaurant in Savannah. She seemed like such a sweet person. I can't imagine the vile things that were floating around in her head and coming out of her mouth. Not only is she embarrassing herself but her sons as well, who are also in business with her. They have a lot of work ahead of them.

RowdyRodimus said...

How dare a person use whatever words they want to in their own homes or hire people to ACT (meaning not really being, just pretending) as slaves at a wedding at a southern plantation!

People have the right to be upset by this stuff, but don't try to shame those of us who are past the whole "this word is racist and can only be used by certain people" as that excludes people and isn't that what the whole civil rights movement was about?

RowdyRodimus said...

Then again, I shouldn't bring up the civil rights movement as it has been so clouded now that people think it was the Democrats who were for it and Republicans against it. Little history lesson for you folks, the Democratic party was fine with Segregation, in fact Bobby Kennedy's own words were "I don't care about those Negros, I just want their vote for Jack in November". The Republicans were actually the ones pushing for integration. Facts you'll never here on the Daily Show.

auntliddy said...

Munch, lol" whispering in your head"!!! Love it !!!!!

auntliddy said...

Rowdy knew that, and hv heard it on daily show, hardball and bill mahr. Crank open a window in that closed mind.

auntliddy said...

I too am completely stunned and amazed that anyone would think/talk like this BECAUSE ITS 2013 FOR GODSAKES!!!!!!

Amartel said...

Paula Deen (and a lot of other people including most of Hollywood) has used the "N" word. The only reason this is news because idiots need to feel better about themselves by holding southerners in contempt (while doing the exact same thing they claim is the reason for their contempt.)

portlandjewel said...

Not even freaking SLIGHTLY "on par" that is absurd.

portlandjewel said...

Ugh. I didn't even realise when I read this that it was you again. You clearly have issues and just so you know... There are very few things you can say that are WORSE than the language she allegedly admitted to using. Most people do NOT say such things, even in the privacy of their own home... The lawsuit is against HER... And NOT about things she said in private. Seriously, go take an ethics class or something.

RowdyRodimus said...

@Auntliddy I honestly don't watch much TV, I just used The Daily Show for that the same way people use FOX News to show something that is wrong with the Republican way of thinking.

It does surprise me though that Bill Mahr would admit it.

It's kind of funny that you said closed mind when I found that Bobby Kennedy quote while reading a book on him from 1967. I find it's better to go back as close to the events and read those for the closest thing to truth we'll get about things. Sort of like that Penn & Teller Bullshit episode where they ask what was the recipe for Elvis' favorite fried chicken and find a lot of different versions, and that's just someone who died in what, 1977?

RowdyRodimus said...

@portlandjewel Ethics as proposed by who, exactly? Is it ethical that someone make millions of dollars a year acting in a show while their crew makes scale? Is it ethical that a woman can ruin a man she dislikes by making false rape accusations against him, knowing he will be tried and convicted by the populace? Is it ethical that a light night comedian can make pedophilia jokes about priests but can't mention the name of Muhammad in case they upset some Muslims?

Ethics aren't black and white. You can take ten different classes on ethics and get ten different views on them.

Was it ethical for my gym teacher to tell people to "kick his fat ass" when they went by me when we ran on the track or saying I was raped because I was an altar boy But I guess that was ok because it was making reference to my body and religion not my colo....hey, that's just the same, isn't it?

Imani_Malika said...

As ignorant as her statements are, I wanna know WHO signed up to dress as a slave? She said she got the idea from another wedding she was at. Who the hell decides to reply to THAT craigslist post?

erika said...

i hope this lardacious queen of all heffers chokes on her next truckful bite of lard.

in other words, biotch, I want you dead!

shopgirl said...

The Food Network sure can pick 'em.

My only comment is what an ignorant bitch !!

Southerners with CLASS neither speak nor even think like that. My father was an old southern gentleman and he never struck us kids but he said he would have if he ever heard that vile word come out of our mouths.

That word is a remnant of slavery and should never be used by anyone ever.

Maybe Paula Deen would like it if someone treated HER like a slave from the Antebellum period and tore her top off and took the lash to her back. F***k that Gones with the Wind BS.

Rose said...

I think the reason it came out was that she was using it in her restaurant. That isn't private.

auntliddy said...

Your gym teacher was a dick. Hopefully rotting away somewhere of painful ailment. I cant stand bullies and that what he us/was.
Historical facts are what they are, no matter which " side" they fall on. I love history myself. Incidentally, it benefits a goverment that wants to get away with shit to keep us ignorant of history. And it is appalling how ignorant some people are in this area. And they dont even feel bad- they are almost proud of it. Blows my mind.
I also love today, in an age where EVERYTHING is recorded in some way, when you have politician on tape saying something they NOW say they never said. I always wonder if they are familiar with concept of videotape, lol.

HannahBanana said...

Wow!!!! She wanted the waiters to pretend to be slaves?!?!?! WTF?!?!? I'm not a big fan of hers, but she used to seem like a sweet lady....um not so much. Yuck. Food network needs to fire that racist ass.

Mango said...

She's become a cartoon character.

One of the funniest things I have ever read was Ms. Deen's recipe for English Peas on the Food Network website:

ENGLISH PEAS
Ingredients
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
2 cans (14 1/2-ounces) English peas, drained

Directions:
Melt the butter in small pot and add the peas. Cook over medium heat until peas are warm.


The recipe itself is mildly amusing (famous cook Paula Deen using CANNED PEAS???) but there were hundreds, literally HUNDREDS of mocking comments by readers that were utterly tears-pouring-down-our-cheeks hilarious.

The killjoys at FN deleted all of them, and routinely go back and delete any new snarky posts, the bastards. These will be gone soon:

* This recipe is awesome. I added a pound of bacon and left out the peas. Delicious!

* I would've given it 5 stars but the recipe was too complicated. Incredible show of technique though. Maybe you could do a video tutorial on this one because I was so lost.

Dear God (that I don't belive in because you are made up and cuase ppl to lose their fucking minds and do all types of stupid shit in your name) please give this racist cunt some high octane cancer! Amen

A-a-n-d #PaulasBestDishes is now trending on Twitter, lol.

When keeping it real goes wrong

FlirtyChick74 said...

@auntliddy: thank you.

FlirtyChick74 said...

@Imani: lots of desperate actors and actresses. I watched a documentary about it years ago. It was random so I don't remember the name of it. It was very sad watching these actors pursue their dream in this way. Now that I think of it, it might have been one of those PrimeTime live shows.

Henriette said...

I think Butter Dean cooked her last duck on the Food Network. Wonder what's going to happen to her creepy sons living on her coattails.

Taracu said...

Mango,
You gave me my laugh of the day. Must check out Food Network.

HuffPo has the transcript of the deposition: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/19/paula-deen-racist-comments-n-word-caught-on-video_n_3467287.html

Sherry said...

I am truly saddened and disappointed to hear she does/did this. What enlightened person of the world can actually believe that shit anymore? And FTR there are a shitload of southern posters here who DEFINITELY do not believe using the "N" word is appropriate or that racism is okay.

We hear from people here who live in Indiana or NJ (mentioned) who claim they hear the same abhorrent shit. Please don't make it sound like it's exclusive to the south. Racism exists everywhere and we should call it out where ever it happens.

Before I condemn Paula more, I shall visit the Huffington post for the details if the deposition. Paula's only redeeming quality at this point is being honest about her heinous behavior.

Now let's see if FN has any balls and cuts her loose if this is true.

And yeah, some of the "recipes" on the FN are a joke..Frozen grapes? Put grapes in freezer...REALLY? Clever!

car54 said...

I saw Paula on The Chew a couple of weeks ago and she was so addled and out of it Mario Batalli had to step in and cook with her to get her segment finished. I don't know what she was on, but it was kind of obvious something was wrong with her.

L'auteur said...

Well, now we know the age of the writer who doesn't leave enough space between his/her sentences: no one other than someone in their 20's or early 30's would say "on accident." While this is now considered common to use, the vast majority of people above 35 use "by accident." Just sayin'...

Amartel said...

Today's Two Minutes of Hate sponsored by:
Paul Deen
and
Serena Williams.

Thanks for watching.

Anon said...

No it doesn't .

Anon said...

It's very appropriate . It's the whole irony of it all. You are a bold white bitch to say nigger in front of your Black employees. And maybe that's why she said it because she knew they needed a paycheck . Your white supervisors, cops, landlords will say racist to you and in front of you. Why? Because they have a certain degree of power,they know you can't do nothing and basically they just don't respect you.

She is so disgusting. Remember how she waited to announce that she had diabetes until she had an endorsement deal lined up?

Anon said...

They also tell me I'm young, blonde and thin. I can make a white bitch look fat, slit her wrist and choke on her own vomit just by standing next to her.

MadLyb said...

@RowdyRodimus - Republicans are so fucking transparent. You truly are "The People of the Lie". I've read my history enough to know that you are spinning it to benefit your warped belief system. Many of the southern "Democrats" who supported institutionalized racism became Republicans, and now the Republican Party is known as the part of racist, bigotted, misogynist, homophobic assholes.

MadLyb said...

Meh - who cares about Paula Deen? I save my loathing for people who sneer at those who cannot find any sort of justification for letting a child go hungry. I save my anger for those who sneer at kindness and compassion. I save my disdain for people who can't open their willfully ignorant mouths without making a racist slur ("The Mexicans are taking all our jobs". "The gays are destroying family values", and so on, and so on). Fuck them. Paula Deen is just one of the herd, and probably the least offensive part of it.

Jenn said...

If this is true, it justifies my irritation and disdain for her put on countrified crap. All the butter and sugar in the world don't disguise that woman's bullshit.
How rude.

The two don't compare.

Folks like this believe gay white men have suffer the same as blacks.

portlandjewel said...

I'm not sure what this has to do with it but no, it wasn't ethical for your gym teacher to bully you and encourage others to do that. As for actors getting rich and others getting scale... That's called capitalism, I am a socialist so... Again, not sure what that has to do with my specific comments on one specific topic. Also, I don't find pedophilia jokes funny. Still not on topic here though. But thanks for the history lesson. Wish I'd just come to you instead of spending 60K on a history degree!
