Chris Cuomo Is Facing Lots of Backlash For Saying He's 'Black On The Inside'

Chris Cuomo is under fire for a comment he made on air over the weekend on CNN.

The comment came as the 50-year-old reporter was signing off and welcoming Don Lemon on air for the night, and as he began to sing the theme song to Good Times, Don asked him how he knew all the words to it while chuckling at him singing along.

“You know I’m Black on the inside,” Chris commented.

The comment sent social media into a tailspin and he later addressed the outrage on his own Twitter page.

“Said with all respect to reality and our need to fight this amplification of color animus,” Chris wrote. “There is no understanding what it is to live as a black person in America if you are white but it is so important to listen. The majority must change racism.”

Chris also responded to one Twitter user who wrote to him that “We are allies, we are not black,” and he replied, “Absolutely true. And too many are not.”

He added, “I really do think my kids’ generation is different tho [sic]. They are not merely ‘woke’ or pc or language police, they really seem to date and hang and choose as fam, a real range of color, creed and identity.”

Just recently, Chris commented on the situation surrounding his brother, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.

Chris Cuomo Speaks Out About Sexual Harassment Allegations Against Brother Andrew Cuomo

Chris Cuomo is opening up about his brother, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo.

The 50-year-old television journalist addressed allegations made against the 63-year-old politician on Monday night (March 1) on his CNN show.

“Before we start tonight, let me say something that I am sure is very obvious to you who watch my show, and thank you for that. You are straight with me. I will be straight with you,” he said.

“Obviously, I am aware of what is going on with my brother, and obviously, I cannot cover it because he is my brother. Now of course CNN has to cover it. They have covered it extensively and they will continue to do so. I have always cared very deeply about these issues, and profoundly so. I just want to tell you that. There’s a lot of news that goes on also, so let’s get after that,” he continued.

Two former aides accused Andrew of sexual harassment.

In a statement, the governor said: “I now understand that my interactions may have been insensitive or too personal and that some of my comments, given my position, made others feel in ways I never intended. I acknowledge some of the things I have said have been misinterpreted as an unwanted flirtation. To the extent anyone felt that way, I am truly sorry about that.”

CNN recently said they had reinstated their rule that Chris was not allowed to cover any news related to his brother.

Chris Cuomo Is No Longer Allowed to Interview or Cover News About Brother Andrew Cuomo

Chris Cuomo is no longer able to interview or report on his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.

CNN told ET in a statement that they had reinstated their rule that Chris was not allowed to cover any news related to his brother.

During the start of the pandemic, the network allowed Andrew to appear on Chris‘ show Cuomo Prime Time.

“The early months of the pandemic crisis were an extraordinary time,” a spokesperson for CNN said. “We felt that Chris speaking with his brother about the challenges of what millions of American families were struggling with was of significant human interest. As a result, we made an exception to a rule that we have had in place since 2013 which prevents Chris from interviewing and covering his brother, and that rule remains in place today. CNN has covered the news surrounding Governor Cuomo extensively.”

Andrew has faced public scrutiny for his administration’s handling of nursing home deaths during the pandemic. While they had previously stated that only 8,500 nursing home residents died from the virus, it was found that the toll was actually closer to 15,000. The FBI and federal prosecutors in Brooklyn have reportedly begun a preliminary investigation into the situation.

Andrew recently announced that stadiums and arenas would begin reopening in New York at a limited capacity.

Chris Cuomo Showed Up in the Buff in His Wife's Instagram Live

Chris Cuomo accidentally bared it all when he walked in the background of his wife Cristina‘s Instagram Live!

Cristina was filming a yoga video for her Instagram followers and Chris seemingly didn’t know that she was filming and he appeared to walk by the window outside… completely in the buff.

It hasn’t been confirmed that the unclothed man in the background is Chris, but fans are pretty sure that it was him. The video was reportedly filmed on May 27, but it’s no longer on her page. Just one screencap is floating around social media right now.

Chris, who is an anchor for CNN, tested positive for coronavirus and he revealed in late May that he was still feeling “funky.” Here’s what he had to say about his recovery from the virus.

CNN's Chris Cuomo Is Not Fully Recovered From Coronavirus - Here's What's 'Funky'

Chris Cuomo revealed that he’s still not fully recovered from COVID-19 aka the Coronavirus despite testing negative back in April.

“People who’ve been through this have strange tales to tell and not a lot of great answers from doctors [in regard] to weird stuff in their blood work,” the 49-year-old news anchor said on the air. “I’m not back to where I was before I had the virus, but I can work. I can hang out. I can engage with my family.”

“I’m not 100 percent,” he continued. “There is funky stuff in my blood work, that doctors say is what they see in people who have had COVID. So it freaks me out a little bit.”

“As long as there are other people who have the same kind of funky blood work, I’ll just keep taking it one day at a time,” he added. “And, as relevant, I am always telling people about the experience.”

It seemed as though Chris was feeling a little better while dancing with his family recently. We hope he makes a full recovery soon!
