  • Comment removed

  • Necroids not be wery inttelicent.

  • ur all racist

  • stfu!! aint nuffin wrong u white dick heads

  • People who think this is racist are retarded, its a great cover.

  • wtf is this channel? a porn industry wtf

  • you noticed how the o and the g make perfect horns

  • This channel is a fuckin joke. Just stop making videos.

  • My first thought, who the hell is that chick?

  • thumbs up if you see the horns on his head

  • @EazyE9252 illuminati ha ha ha

  • If it isn't intended to be king kong then please explain the intention behind the picture? It obviously isn't a normal picture of a guy with a model in his arm.

  • Liberals look for problems, Conservatives look for solutions. I'm a black conservative and that's why i don't have personal relationships with liberals. But, i will accept their money.

  • man, God Damn , i cant beleive this Vogue is crazy...you know Exxaacctlyy what i thought of this CRAP.?????????.!!!!!!!........­....nothing

  • Kobe-LeBron

  • Kobe-LeBron

  • I DIDNT SEE SHIT WHY IS THE MEDIA ALWAYS OVER ANALYZING EVERYTHING

  • look at lebrons head hez the devil lol

  • @angunrox12 HE IS

  • Its the devil horns that people are sayin to

  • illuminati !

  • lebron has always been refered to as freak of nature ohh and the way he opens his mouth like that, he does it all the time i dont see the racism in this (im black)

  • Jeez... still this shit goes on?

    Why does this have to be any different than if Dirk Nowitzki made the same pose with Giselle?

  • When you see the magazine look at the top of lebrons head its like he has horns like the devil why do you think his new number is six and before a game he makes double sixs 666

  • @XxitankstuffxX He's been doing that way before he went to Miami and attained the number 6 for his jersey.

  • they are saying that king kong is a beast and lebron is a beast that is what it is

  • oh god who gives a fuck he clearly had no problem with it. so it doesnt fucking matter!

  • It has nothing to do with racism, the thing wrong with this cover is that he has horns in his head

  • he has horns wtf

  • There is nothing fucking wrong with this Cover..dumbasses

  • @BananaShake21 r u gonna hid under a rock now that u know he is part of it, what proof do u have?

  • Why ya'll jocking his swag

  • I hate people sometimes....even if they were referencing King Kong...why do we have to be like "OH THEY'RE RACIST CUZ THEY'RE CALLING LEBRON AN APE"?

    King Kong----King James....fuckin shit people.

  • @BradE17 It wouldn't matter. All people are apes.

  • My first thought was: Jeezus LBJ is huge

  • Thats how they told him to pose...so really Vogue would be blamed, I don't really understand how no one realized this...

  • King Kong and a white woman

  • I see horns on the top of his head -_-

  • vogue doesnt see anything wrong with it because they are conditioned to seeing the black man as a animal.... so they honestly don't see how one could call this racist because they are conditioned to think this is normal

  • @brionnakennedy To be honest, if they did do the king kong allusion on purpose, I don't think its racially motivated. Lebron James is uniersally considered to be a BEAST on the court and maybe that is all they are saying. But if they don't comment that that is their aim, then i'll concede that its has a racial connotation.

  • @brionnakennedy So you see in it racist context.Why can't it just be a basketball player with a crazed look on his face? I'm tired of people actively trying to derive racism out of something that can just as easily be completely innocent from another standpoint. You want to have a racist interpretation and I don't know why.  Do you know where the conditioning is?People like you are conditioned to see racism and discrimination in anything whenever potentially possible, even though it may not be

  • @ChicagoFan32 Reread it plz cause no where did i say that I SAW IT AS A RACIST THING....But you know as well as i do that thats a King Kong impersonation...Racism is alive and well weather you want to believe it or not but i wouldnt expect you to understand... further more u dont know ANYTHING about me so you have no grounds to say "people like you are conditioned to see racism and discrimination in anything whenever potentially possible".... Happy Easter :)

  • @brionnakennedy The world is conditioned to see the black man as an animal. Been that way for centuries. Ain't changing anytime soon. Especially since most blacks still don't get how to change this stereotype.

  • @TheGreaterPhoenix the white world

  • @brionnakennedy Exactly! :-D At least you get it. It's all about assimilation.

  • @TheGreaterPhoenix Idk if i quite understand what you mean by assimilation in this context. Do you mean that whites thought the blk man to be an animal so in turn he became assimilated to thinking himself as an animal??

  • @brionnakennedy Nah what I mean is that if it's not European than GTFO!! Everything else is supposed to be lowly compared to European anything. Look at the Asian countries and how much they want to compete with Europeans and White America. They put them at the top of chain. That's why it is okay for their daughters to marry a white man, but be cursed if he is black or any dark race. Same goes for Indians, Arabs, etc...... Why is this okay. Because it is all image. We are being assimilated by..

  • @brionnakennedy subconsciously admiring this culture. Now there's nothing wrong with European culture I for one love many things about. However, when other races start to be thrown aside in place of blonde hair, blue eyes, and white skin, there is a problem. The world is becoming white and I wonder how many people can actually see it. Billboards all over the world with a white woman on it. Women lightening skin and getting their faces straightened. Why do you think this is? Is it image or nature

  • @TheGreaterPhoenix ok i understand what you're saying but i don't think the world has become white its always been that way. Since the beginning of time whites have always bullied their way thru time and their reign has stood the test of time because blks especially r still very effected by the brainwashing that took place during slavery. Like u hinted at, a lot of ppl want blue eyes/str8 hair/light skin etc. Europeans set the standard of beauty as well as a lot of things centuries ago cont.

  • @brionnakennedy Well the reason why I stated that the world is becoming white is because I see the want to be white intensifying amongst other races especially in Asia, Latin America, Mexico, Middle East. With the internet and new margins of media the brainwashing is furthering itself but I agree with you. It could basically be said that it has always been like that since centuries have passed.

  • @brionnakennedy Yeah power is mess if it gets into the wrong hands. No body has the courage to challenge it. Not even powerful rich black people because they have finally made it and they can keep the black and white man happy. They are comfortable and they don't want to lose that. Oprah, Jay-Z, Beyonce, they have too many white friends and they don't want to upset their friends. We cannot look for them to help we have to start with ourselves I would say. It's everyone for themselves.

  • @TheGreaterPhoenix i hear u, i just think that a lot of blk ppl are brainwashed and still have slave mentalities and until the masses understand this and decide that enough is enough then we will always be the last place race.

  • @TheGreaterPhoenix And a lot of ppl still conform to those standards. The white race is the model race, everybody should aspire to be like the white race in their eyes... As far as the predominately white billboards and commercials IMO its all propaganda that has never been corrected so its definitely image not nature imo that has ppl assimilated to the European ways of being!

  • i see horns on his head

  • king kong hahahahhaahha that so dumb

  • king kong hahahahhaahha what a retard

  • i saw a big black guy with his little white woman. that's it =/

  • i would have never seen anything if they hadnt talked about it, lol

  • Bron shows how STUPID he is with this SHIT. Dumb. Not smart man.

  • He does look like an Ape in the pic. It also doesn't help that I don't give a shit about Lebron.

  • no saw it because your eye isnt trained to see it. you prolly never even saw the pictures from during that time period. which were portraying germans (as brutes and savages).. yeah lebron knows what he was doing cause he works for the cracker. lol

  • It IS supposed to be like King Kong. He held a women in his arm as he stood on top of a building screaming. But they are not saying Lebron or black people all together are apes. King Kong was big and strong and could step on anybody around him. LeBron is big and strong and with his basketball talent he can step on pretty much anybody he wants to :D

  • @GrezziBling Your comment is win +1 internet for having awesome common sense! :D

  • It looks to me like you two are stupid as shit.

  • In my opinion, anyone who is commenting that they don't see the connection between King Kong and this cover is either blind, lying or brainwashed.

    Read the book Brainwashed by Tom Burrell. You'd be surprised about where your opinion on this cover stems from.

  • its the 1st time vogue had a black guy on the cover?? hmmm..

  • Vogue IS racist

  • god i love interacial love. why couldnt that be hillary clinton and borack obama?

  • is it me or do they only talk about black ppl and their wrong doings

  • are you kidding me? must not have been much to talk about.... the hosts should slap themselves

  • wow, when i first saw this, i didn't think a thing about this. i saw a woman and a basketball player. not a goddamn ape. this whole situation was fucking ridiculous and shouldn't have even been considered a "news" story

  • everyone quit crying RACISM. quit being little bitches

  • why do they compare him with king kong?this is racism

    king kong was a monkey....it's not fair.

  • The editors of Vogue Magazine obviously hate the fact that Lebron's nick name is King James. Apparently they feel that many of their readers share the same feeling, Having met Lebron, they came to the conclusion that he lacks worldly experience and understanding, so they decided to use his naive personality to place him on the cover of Vogue Magazine looking like; King James? Oh, no, no, more like King Kong.

  • That Vogue cover is a good example why the NBA should not be allowed to recuit young, clueless black men straight from HighSchool. If Vogue had approached Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdule Jabar, or Julius Ervin A.K.A. Dr. J. during their prime days with that idea for a photo shoot, these mature men would've taken a pass.

  • What a part of illuminati come on now its just a cover...He's King James

  • @greeneyedgangsta - It's just a cover to you because you are clueless. King James - King Kong.

  • What apart on illuminati come on now its just a cover...He's King James

  • i don't think that being a gorilla is offensive

  • When I saw the cover I was like, athlete and a white woman, hmmm....typical.

    King Kong didn't come to mind until it became a controversy.

  • serious believer in the Illuminati now after what ive seen in the past 30 minutes, i just wish someone could put a hit out on 1 of these members we need proof

  • ummm lebron i a gorrilla so how is it racist?

  • WHO TH FUCK gives a shit if this cover represents the old king kong cover? so fuckin wut?? grow some balls you pussy faggots

  • @llHyRaXll TOTALLY AGREE!!

  • its a great picture, lebron looks like a machine there.

  • Personally the first thing I noticed was there was too much text but I'm a graphic designer so yeah that's of course what I saw before anything.

    Also doesn't he call himself King James, King James=King Kong of Basketball, HELLO! jeez

  • @TheSirJecht SMH...WELL SPOKEN BUT MOST PEOPLE DONT UNDERSTAND

  • What a bunch of idiots. Yeah definitely a hot collectors item

  • that was the first thing i saw, da damn horns on his head... they thing they're smart

  • @kazoopilot

    me. not "it"

  • @kazoopilot

    No. You are mixed. I'm African Ameican and I'm offended it.

  • WAT A FAGGOT.THIS TURK U MORON.ITS JUS A DAMN PICTURE

  • @ammakichutt youre a fking idiot. he is TALKING about the controvery he didnt create it

  • @thekrumpman

    When they mentioned it being compared to King Kong, I not so much saw it in the whole racist way. But more in the way you did, like he's a beast within his profession, a king. Hell, if they put a crown on him people would have complained that instead of a regal King they ended up making him look like a Pimp...>.>...

  • You know what I thought when I saw the photo? Not a goddamn thing.

  • @TampaRed Thank god someone said it.

  • actually, vogue magazine is thought to be a member of the illuminati gang (the largest secret group in the world, worships satan), and so is lebron james. and you might have to look closely, but you will see that on top of lebrons head, the O and the G appear to be perfectly placed devil horns...freaky right?

  • @ThexVanillaxKilla That's an interesting observation, in reference to the placement of the O & G. Freaky INDEED!!!!

  • gorilla.

  • its not racist lebron is a fucking gorrila.lol. the cover wouldnt work if it was dave chapelle, obama micheal jordan or most other black celebrities.

  • @kazoopilot do you see the devil horns on top of lebrons head......

  • I think it was a deliberate play on the "King James" imaging to King Kong, not that much of a stretch. As a black man, to me,it also wasn't that much of a big deal either. EVERYTHING invloves race, that doesn't make everything a racial issue.

  • my son Lebron James tap that ass early lol

  • @kazoopilot dude u aint black ur hawaian or sum forest creature

  • racism FTW

  • @kazoopilot I'm indian they fuckin call me paki its still ok with me some guys jus can't take it man .. i understand you!!!

  •  now they're just forcing it

  • notice the horns coming out of the beasts head!!!!

  • OMG the diabolical vouge! Putting an aggressive basketball player in an aggressive positon with *gasp* a white woman!!! Thus insuinating that he is king kong and that all black people are violent gorillas! Damn vouge!

    I mean its not like Sheek Louch released the album Silverback Gorrilla the same month. Oh wait, yeah he did.

    Please people lets stop seeing racism everywhere.

  • Come on people. So what if it's a bit King Kong ish. It's just a bit of a joke take it easy. How the hell is this offensive get real people. It's Lebron the gentleman not Mike Tyson the rapist.

  • Who fucking cares gisele is on the cover nuf said haha

  • King Kong....King James....not saying they aren't making a comparising of monkeys and blacks but they could also just be having king JAMES in place of king KONG holding the woman....that's like having a guy named michael GORDAN doing the jumpman pose on a basketball cover to mimic michael jordan....

  • black people who don't realize the racism, are in a dire need of a history lesson

  • why does it matter lebron probably wanted it to be depicted that way to further his brand of being the "King" so depicting himself as king kong shouldn't be thought of as controversy

  • You know, I'm not even going to lie. I thought the exact same thing when I saw this years ago before I ever even heard of any controversy. I immediately thought of King Kong. And I'm black lol.

  • lebron is a coon

    

  • sorry cenk you are you are out to lunch on this one

  • lebron got devil horns on his head haha look

  • First thing i thought was "She looks good"

  • well im black and it does looks like they callinbig black men guerillas trying to fuck young innocent white girls (wich hapens lmao) but yuh still im sure tey had 100's of other pictures then that one

  • king. kong. boe they just saying that shit kuz jb... it black and he with a white girll... man...GROW THA FUCK UP

  • u douchebags first of all hes a basketball player....not king kong....thats what the basketball is for if u didnt know....and the woman is there for more appeal....u guys really know how 2 blow shit out of proportion....get sum pussy n loosen up assholes

    i may add that thats extremely racist to call a black man a huge monkey....jerkoffs

  • king kong my ass ! stfu yhu fuckinqq haterz !

  • I still dont get it. Even if this is an attempt at "KING" Kong...Key word here is KING because that what we call him in the sports world. My question is why is it a bad thing?

  • if lebron's ok with it... it's a different generation. maybe he likes the iconic simile. it can easily be satire of an old stereotype. but this is vogues first black man on a cover? that's interesting.

    tyt is just asking the obvious question. blaming them is idiotic.

  • ANYONE SEE THE DEVIL HORNS ON LEBRONS HEAD????

    HES PART OF THE ILLUMINATI!!!!

  • @BananaShake21 shut the fuck up you all took this illuminati stuff to far you sound stupid right now dumbass

  • @brianb3000 haha,,ur the one that sounds like a dumbass...why so pissed/???

    u another lebron dick rider??hahahah have fun ridin his fat dick man...

  • @BananaShake21 what!!!!! yall think everybody is illiminati and its very outdated and dumb

  • @BananaShake21 yeah another sold bitch

  • @BananaShake21  damn thats fukd up

  • @BananaShake21

    damn. u rite i aint even notice. damn lebron, not u too. say it aint so

  • @BananaShake21 oh man youre another one of those who believe everything they see on youtube. illuminati hasnt existed in the last 200 years and they had nothing to do with devil. and when i saw that cover i thought there was nothing wrong. i think what the critics said was a little racist cause i bet if it was a white man instead of lebron like that they wouldnt have said anything about king kong.

  • @BananaShake21 your mom too!

  • @BananaShake21 - I think you've been playing too much "Resident Evil".

  • @BananaShake21 AND A BIG BLACK NIGGA

  • @BananaShake21 go see a doctor...

  • @BananaShake21 no he is not he is a pawn of the illuminati becuz the illuminati dont like blacks

  • @devindaboss45 your so ignorant!

  • @mrshineright not at all

  • New Oj right on.

  • fuck you tyt

  • Porque LeBron James es....el......DIAAAABLOOOOOOO!­!

  • please go get a real job, fake news idiots.

  • wow lol im black and dont give a f

  • why does it look like lebron has horns on the top of his head

  • the horns r so on purpose

  • 1st time a black man is on the cover and the theme of that cover is "beauty and the beast?" highly suspect, though it's not the 1st time this has been done. remember T.O & chick from Sex & the City on Monday Night Football?

    LeBron was too young 2 know better @ the time, but his people should have @ least told him about the symbolism of such a pic (warranted or unwarranted) since he's so concerned about his image. Controversy= cash & pub. if anyone's image suffered (inc Vogue), it was Lebron's

  • you guyz are too busy worrying about this king kong thng. did you even notice the horns coming from his head? not jus a coincidence

    illuminati

  • @mdub707

    yea this is botherin me...ive been studying this stuff all week.

  • @mdub707 holy crap for real

  • this is so stupid. ok first an average person (in my opinion) would say "oh lebron reminds me of king kong in this picture omg thats so racist", but these people r making a big deal about nothing. "oh this is racist" "oh they did that on purpose". if u keep implying that its racist then ur obviously gonna think its racist and so on and so on. so in the end everything is gonna get over looked now nd eventually things people create...well no one is gonna be happy with them ever

  • Racism is natural. Race-baiting is pathetic.

    LBJ looked like Kong, not because he is black.. but because he really looks like an ape on the pic.

    Leave racism out of this. Hang all race-baiters!!!

  • @kazoopilot nigger!! does that offend u?

  • this guy is a jackass

  • see how lebron is positioned under o and g and it looks like horns hes illuminati with jay z

  • as a black guy I say people need to start makin some goddamn sense and stop sein racism everywhere, yes many racist things are done against us blacks, but this surely isnt one of them, so stop your foolishness damn!!! i they wanted to make fun of him do u think theyd pay him the kind of money magazines give to athletes to pose??? start makin some godammn sense people

  • FIYA upon vogue...its president, the photographer, the advertisers, the model, the modeling agency...They shall burn. Lebron james will end up selling used cars...until he has paid his penance and learned the foolishness of his ways...and fiya upon all those who take up the baton from him. Let this be a warning to all those who read this...do what lebron james did and suffer the same fate...and to the beasts behind this magic..YOU SHALL BURN NOW! Ashay!

  • I dont think they meant to be implying that black people are similiar monkeys, I think they meant they were implying that hes powerful like king kong -___-

  • people are damn crazy. King Kong??? Really? Peeps are really nutz

  • what a bunch loosers..

  • the young turks can go suck on a dick....then there moms nipples...

  • @slickcrack where is your news show? Until you take the time to commentate, write, news gather, produce and edit and broadcast a news show... STFU!  or go back to smokin crack!

  • lebron has horns pointed from O and G........one of Jay-z's minions!!!

  • Retarded videos are retarded. Stop trying to make controversy over the dumbest shit FFS.

  • if u gys notice his head is perfectly centered between the o and the g. it looks like he has horns.

  • wtf?these turks are idiots

  • if you think this is racist. . . then you are racist cause you obviously think lebron looks like an ape.

  • @ak34809723 lol

  • zoom into his head there trying to show something. LeBron James is a part of illuminate. Look closely, it shows him with thw devils horns.

  • They couldn't make a Black man look normal, shame on them.

  • What a piece of bullshit

  • I think I just some respect for TYT

  • fuck you! and your king kong bullshit
