Several days ago an alleged incident occurred between Mike Epps and comedian Lavar Walker that we didn’t report (We try our best NOT to report on anything that will slander other comedians/actors, as we feel there are enough websites who do so.).
The report claims that Lavar Walker, while in Atlanta at The Uptown Comedy Club was assaulted by members of Epps’ entourage. Because of this event, we heard that the Atlanta Police recently issued a warrant for Epps.
Why are we reporting this now? Well, Epps released a statement about this incident and things are coming to a boiling point for both as media outlets are running rampant with this story.
Here is the statement from Epps;
“As a result of the unfounded accusations of my participation in an unfortunate event, the media has falsely reported me as the perpetrator of the incident. This unknown comedian is trying to carve out his 5 minutes of fame by taking selfies of himself in the hospital and posting them to his social media in an attempt to gain fame and followers at my expense. Being an actor, comedian and public figure, I am no stranger to these types attempts by struggling comedians trying to use me to make a name for themselves. While most incidents of this nature I simply ignore in this case I wanted to take the time to thank my fans, friends and family for the support and I will continue working and doing the thing that I have been honored to do for 20 plus years. Bring you joy and laughter through entertainment.”
-Mike Epps
