Ricky Gervais makes scientology / Tom Cruise / John Travolta joke at 2011 Golden Globe Awards

[Maaarrrtin]

Ironic how an add for scientology appeared at the bottom of the video.

[YuwTuwb]

Tom Cruise needs the piss taken out of him and then put back in, only to be taken out again!

Taking the 'mickey' for you americans.

And John-fucking-Travolta too! Or should that be John Revolta!

[888LVL888]

You gotta love his direct approach to reality,him being pure does cause discomfort with people that have lost complete reality,not many has the courage to do as he has...much respect from I...

[Albertaguy321]

@topbluffa1 I am positive he is aware, as you are, of more than 1 or 2 concepts of god ... Thanks for calling them concepts Ricky is smiling at that statement. Talking snake ... Really?

[HoBustinJopson]

What's funny is Ricky is an atheist. And he knows that christians/muslims also believe in fucked up shit like talking donkeys and supermen whos kryptonite is their hair being short (samson). You gotta love Ricky. He didn't just slam scientology, he slammed religion.

[topbluffa1]

@HoBustinJopson

because to put it bluntly he is a simpleton.



[topbluffa1]

@HoBustinJopson

shall i just find one bad scientific theory and then call All science crap?

im 100% sure ricky isnt aware of more than 1 or 2 concepts of god and yet he can badmouth religion as a whole.... pathetic.

[LonelyWhiteAsparagus]

that's the Ricky Gervais I was hoping to see when I watched the globes this year.

[atmark666]

i love the Google ads asking

what is Scientology?lol

[datsome80]

Our government for 2012 should consist of Charlie Brooker, David Mitchell, Frankie Boyle, Hugh Dennis, and Ricky Gervais.

[MirHassanProductions]

Didn't know Ricky was.... Anonymous.

[TubeFreakJonas]

Great comedians entertain themselves or they don't do the joke. That's why it goes over.

And if Sacha Baron Cohen can imply the exact same thing (naming them) in the film Brüno, I say it's OK Ricky recycled the joke - two great fearless comedians. Unglaublich!

[Demonfridge1]

I don't normally like Gervais but that was funny i guess. I was expecting something a little more intelligent given how easy it is to attack Scientology.

[CabLuigi]

"What? What?"

[mrnoodleisdead]

scientology is the lowest form of religion. how stupid do you have to be to believe that ron hubbard knows what happened 35 million years ago? that isn't rhetorical. how stupid do you have to be?

[monokhem]

@mrnoodleisdead A little less stupid than you have to believe that some schizophrenic from almost 2000 years ago knew how the world was going to end.

[grinsekatze2012]

@mrnoodleisdead i totally agree. it is even more confusing when it is said about hubbard that he stated sth along the lines: "If a man really wants to make a million

dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion"

[2pacdaking06]

@mrnoodleisdead

How is scientology the lowest form of religion?

EVERY RELIGION IS MADE UP

[Amram81]

@2pacdaking06 to me at least the other 'religions' make a play at being spiritually based, to not seem as concerned about money. Scientology makes it obvious, if you don't have money, your not a good follower.

Well, that and the craziness of DC-8 spaceships, and the founder being a sci-fi author. Not very good at forming a story was he?

Basically, scientology just screams scam. Give us all your money.

At least the all the other religions have openly helped the poor/needy.

[TheOriginalNightHawk]

I love how he dosnt give a fuck :)

Fuck Scientology. 

[johanwinston]

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[kabztunes]

this guy's a champ. he's not affraid to say what he wants to for a laugh. at least he's equal about it. it's not just one type of religion or person. if they can't take a joke they shouldn't enter the spotlight

[vamossebastian]

7 people are scientoligist.

[orilionn]

only amricans like ricky, we english cant stand him. hes NOT funny, everything he does is scripted. forced laughter at unfunny jokes, hence why he fucked off to america as he couldnt get work he in the uk anymore,  your welcome to him.

[videochemist]

@orilionn So then why are you watching his videos on youtube?

[orilionn]

@videochemist to see him make yet more of a fool of himself smart ass

[videochemist]

@orilionn There's only one person here making a fool of himself.

[orilionn]

@videochemist keep talkin moron, im already done with you, troll

[videochemist]

@orilionn Ok, well as long as I get to have the last word.

[orilionn]

@videochemist ahh so your a last word troll, thats for sharing that with every1 else watch this vid, i win. dumb ass

[orilionn]

@videochemist any other post from u will just prove that fact

[taharker]

@orilionn u don't even know the meaning of the word funny. dumb ass! The fact that ur watching it shows u find him entertaining.

[Kizillia]

@orilionn "We English?" I think you're on your own there mate.. There are thousands of English who love Ricky, just as much as the "amricans."

[Searcheur]

ricky gervais is god

[ashbashsplash]

YEH RICKY!

[dnaisinmybody]

I don't like everything he does, but when I do, I find him hilarious!

[BMcAuley123]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHA

[thescreamsmusic]

In fairness he DID manage to apologize for visually and verbally disrespecting Downs Syndrome children.He's hilarious.Google it.He's BIG in America,so's Dubbya Bush...

[themScreamS]

He just isn't funny.The yanks would laugh at anything coz he's lost it this side of the pond.

[Nymphibious]

The world would be a better place if people like Ricky were running it...

[kennaynayTV]

he is so freaking hilarious !

[hubertcp]

Whats with their shitty reaction to the joke? Hilarious and true

[TheDiariesOfVampires]

he just says what everyone else is thinking and i loveee that!

[24sk8rgrl]

AHAHAHAHAHA!!!! I love him

[walterygor]

You can tell Gervais got a little nervous with the audience´s reaction to his out of line joke.

[MidianGTX]

@walterygor Jokes exist to be out of line.

[walterygor]

@MidianGTX I agree. Still you can see he got nervous with the audience's reaction.

[NanoHorizon]

@walterygor LOL what fuckin planet are you on, dumb ass.

[walterygor]

@NanoHorizon Planet reality I guess....you moron!

[lacancomplices]

Being unpolite isn't funny at all

[IronBridgeSoldier]

@lacancomplices And Scientology is a corporation not a religion

[TheBobbsey]

@lacancomplices i think you mean impolite, and its called sarcasm, and if you know anything about scilons, you'd laugh too.

[SavageGenius135]

Is this the joke that got him banned or whatever?

[Seb12Morley]

@SavageGenius135 Banned from what?

[TheBobbsey]

@Seb12Morley i think they mean the acadamy awards.

[RelientKfanatic07]

He's the British Daniel Tosh. He'll say what no one else has the guts to say.

[MrCorndogEater]

@RelientKfanatic07 More like George Carlin

[ahallidie]

@MrCorndogEater Roger that! Both brave souls, how can you argue against saying it like it is?

[djoakley2099]

Just saying what everybody thinks. Gervais has balls

[CliftonPhotographer]

People really mistake just being nasty and mean for being creatively funny. Something he lost when he started doing movies like Ghost Town which sucked. I believe the British call him a wanker!

[swl9380]

HAHAHHA, TAKE THAT

[shaunmalley]

Gervais? Proper LEG-END!

[J88Wolf]

ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)

RICKY!

Y U NO COME TO AMERICA MORE OFTEN?

[MrEstarmes]

They should learn how to ''take a piss''!

[Hatepasswords123]

We all know the truth, there response option, no response.

[TheAnonymousAdvocate]

go ricky!!

[ripper7070]

Haha, love it! 

[jensbjoern]

I would NEVER dare to say something like that! Hahaha Ricky is fucking badass!

[Uglyside20]

FUCKING LOVE GERVAIS!!!

[freewayshay]

He's so bad ass

[disda1n]

Everyone looks around to make sure they aren't there haha.

[bentotheclarke]

what a nob

[dathwampeer]

God, can you imagine if they'd have gotten Frankie Boyle to do this instead of Ricky. I mean, they seriously think this guys got no scruples.

I'd have paid to watch a bunch of A listers squirming in theirs seats as a relative nobody completely dismantled them. IN A SCOTTISH ACCENT!

[buckbumble]

@dathwampeer I can here it now...

A lot of C-bombs would be dropped.

[dathwampeer]

@buckbumble And the rest, lol

[brouterhoodofsteel]

ammericans would be actualy sick if they heard franky boyle they would die they live in a cusiond nice society but if scotland (realy scotland came knoging at there door then they would be very scared)

[Gannnjjjjjaaaaaaa]

this guy is awsome

[jayce79]

It was nice knowing you Ricky. God Speed.

[JamshiLovesROCK]

Tom Cruise and John Travolta just got RICK ROLLED!

[TheBobbsey]

@JamshiLovesROCK yEAH, NEVER GOING GIVE YOU UP ETC, classic rick roll.

[MuseFan777]

5 dislikes, obviously angry little scientologists

[TheSteffanShow]

why isnt he running parliament

[NanoHorizon]

@TheSteffanShow He's too honest.

[yawawot]

Go Ricky!!  Rock on!!!

[BLACKIESBOY]

Sue that, Church Of Scientology.

[Sweetiegirl18]

i kinda dont get it. can someone explain it to me? lol

[chaosfive55]

@Sweetiegirl18 He was taking a poke at Tom Cruise and John Travolta, two so-called "actors" who belong to the Scientology cult.

[wardydave]

hahaha fuckin quier cult bitches gettin burned

[audioajunkie]

I am definitely one American who whole-heartedly LOVES Ricky Gervais!!!

[Templort]

@audioajunkie Who gives a shit.

[manictrooper]

@audioajunkie One of many :P

[mackjeez]

@audioajunkie

For God sakes I'm Christian and I love Ricky Gervais.

[SuperDelusionist]

@mackjeez You Christian Bastard... HOW DARE YOU :P

[oohhyeaahh]

Rick Gervais is so fuckin funny! Fuck all you americans who don't like him lol

[Cimmantti]

JUST SAYIN:

People make fun of Christians all the time, and we do nothing. ('Cept for those crazy southerners, LOL)

People make fun of Scientologists...they get sued...

People make fun of muslims...they get killed...

Just sayin.

[AntiMatterWave]

@Cimmantti JUST SAYIN:

christians have had crusades about people "rejecting" christianity

christians are discriminatory in america for the most part

Blanket statements are wrong

Just sayin.

[Cimmantti]

@AntiMatterWave *Here we go* During the crusades....EVERYBODY was at war, lol.

What Christians are discriminatory? The ones in the south that are already discriminatory? XD, Stereotyping much? If that statement stands true, all black people are muderous rapists who never finished high school...

Blanket statements are fancy-sounding

(And considering their religions actually SAY to do what I mentioned, fairly certain they're not blanket statements...have a nice day :) )

[AntiMatterWave]

@Cimmantti the crusades was a particular war in the name of god when christians would kill non-christians for the crime of being non-christian

Are you seriously saying that you've never heard of christians being discriminatory except for those ones in the south?

I said "for the most part" specifically so that you'd know I don't mean "all"

They are blanket statements because you're saying they all do it, definition of a blanket statement.

[AntiMatterWave]

@Cimmantti part 2)

just because the religion says to do it doesn't mean that they do, for example not every muslim is a terrorist suicide bomber and it would be unfair to say so because it's bullshit

And after you just stereotyped scientologists and muslims without reservation attempting to back it up by saying "it's in their religion" you have the nerve to say that I'M stereotyping after I said how blanket statements are wrong.

[AntiMatterWave]

@Cimmantti part 3) it's also in the bible to kill non-christians which is why the crusaders did it so you know that just because it's in the religion doesn't mean they automatically do it so that argument is founded on bullshit

[chillydogification]

@AntiMatterWave were does it say kill non christians.

[nickholmesx1]

so cutting, one of gervais' best jokes of the night

[Visfen]

It's telling that the crowd booed, guess tons of them are into that crap.

[AmericanNohbuddy]

@Visfen

It was "OHHHHH" not boo.

[halfhigh]

This was brilliant lol!

[PeaceFan1]

I LOVE how all the actor's there in the room are trying hard not to laugh ...Go Ricky ... Truth is the funniest comedy !! xoxo

[CheezzusChrist]

aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhahahahahahah!­!!

[somesortanaughty]

At least someone has got their brains and sanity intact

[edwardjames50]

Right on, Ricky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[arandumLloser]

Tom cruise eating a corn dog with no teeth ?

[JoHeartsArt]

why are there so many gay jokes about Tom Cruise?

[PeaceFan1]

@JoHeartsArt REALLY ?? Seriously ?? LOL ...xo

[JoHeartsArt]

@PeaceFan1 what? xD

[martinbondesson]

Somewhat tough crowd during this award cermony for Ricky. Shame. Apparently they can't take a joke. I say; just go with it, gosh darn it!

[holty1234567890]

@martinbondesson They were scared because lets face it... The 'church' of scientology would sue anyone who thinks differently if they could

[DeluxeSux]

@martinbondesson He went out specifically to offend them. And fuckin' good for him. It's about time someone took their tongue out of those idiots arse holes for a second to give them a few home truths.

[martinbondesson]

@DeluxeSux I agree. But then again, I wish every religious celebriy was made fun of, regardless of what faith they belong to. It's absurd that people still believe in fairy tales in this day and age.

[DeluxeSux]

@martinbondesson I couldn't agree more my friend.

[gaz2206]

I threw my panties at the computer screen. Ricky, you fearless bastard.

[rockchickfairy]

Hollywood are to up their arses most of the time to even know how to take a joke

[luisdanielmesa]

THAT WAS GREAAAAAT... all those who went =O are jackasses...

[lexichronicle2]

One of the best things about Americans, as a brit, is that their sense of humour is not as dark.

I like Ricky G in the office, watched it & loled, but I can assure you, over time, that sense of humour makes life annoying and depressing, as it is an inherently pessimistic and none constructive form; as South Park pointed out in the "you're getting old" episode.

Humour that is simply designed to offend is a poor show.

[79274333]

No wonder he was pulled off the show for an hour and told to tone down, hollywood is afraid of it`s powerful CO$ cult members.

[baillou2]

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!

I LOVE YOU RICKY!

[cybernaut667]

Tom Cruise wont come out of the closet !!

South Park FTW

[Trashcansam123]

That was brave of Ricky, I mean, Scientologists are the biggest bitches ever and they sue all the damn time.

[Racsonify]

whitepanther84. Ok, let´s play games. Like-- ALI. CRWLY. said: ´WE ARE ONE AND NONE´, --GL. ´THE REAL SUPER-MAN IS THE ONE THAT KNOWS HE IS ALSO GOD´,-- OL. ´THE OBJECTIVE DEPENDS ON THE SUBJECTIVE´. IF GOD WAS EVERYWHERE THERE´D BE NO ROOM FOR YOU´. EL --EACH ONE IS THE CENTER OF HIS OWN UNIVERSE, THUS OTHERS SUSPECT OF A MULTIVERSE´. etc Randomness seems to be your religion: Irresponsibility of your own thoughts, acts and existance. You´re so innocent God´ll forgive your childish aberrations

[Racsonify]

Only irresponsibe crowds believe in God, Luck, Destiny, Zodiacos, Ramdomness, Numerology,etc, etc. wake up! You´ve always been your own reponsibility, don´t justify your failures and fears with superstition. Good "luck".

[whitepanther84]

@Racsonify you don't believe in randomness? Isn't that the explanation for all the other things you said?

[Racsonify]

WagTheWog.CERTAINLY,gays are as smart and twisted as two headed snakes are.

[iownallnoobs]

the delivery wasnt that great it was kind of blunt

[Vaeviktis]

Troll'd.

[bedlami]

One of the funniest jokes ever!!!!

[townsend316]

@JJDC420 Nope, but I am into good jokes. Put it this way, would Richard Pryor say this?

[volaju2071]

God bless the British.

[Soundgarden8497]

@volaju2071 god doesn't exist

[volaju2071]

@Soundgarden8497 I don't believe in God either, buddy, but it's just an expression. Grow a sense of humor.

[Soundgarden8497]

@volaju2071 i have a sense of humour and what you said wasn't funny. that expression you used further adds to people accepting god.

[volaju2071]

@Soundgarden8497 Get over it.

[Soundgarden8497]

@volaju2071 roger that

[jimbones2045]

Baller. Tom Cruise better laughed at this. If not he's a garden shed.

[Jonnyshogunorganism]

Truly fearless awesome respect cheers

[FllthPig]

LOLOLOLOL

[townsend316]

Cheap.



[cdgonsalves]

my absolute FAVoRiTe joke of the night from my FAVoRiTe funny man :))) !

[quig66]

Ahahaha!

[Rikset11]

thats awesome

[PloKoon02]

hahaha



[Scientologee]

love it

[resistanceunion]

Scientology = Life in Constant Butthurt.

[theblazingangel]

Ha, ha... I'm not really a fan of Ricky but FINALLY, someone says what we all know. Good on him.

[104Kojack]

Rickey Gervais is funny like a monkey that move's, act's, talk's, laugh's, smell's and toss's his shit at us like a monkey. That said, his best joke show's that there is nothing gay about Tom Cruise, ask Rickey or any gay also. Butt John Travolta was'nt really acting in Hairspray, just John's way of coming out ! HHAAAAAAAAAAAHHAAAAAAAAAAA ! ! !

[davetay]

the whole david brent thing was pure fluke- ricky played it one way,and when public perception read it another other way , he claimed the glory. lucky man........he didnt plan the sheer horrible scale of the awkwardness that got all the acclaim and almost defined a type of tv comedy - ,thats just what hes like......look at his early interviews and comedy, he was a horribly unfunny awkward interviewee. oh well, fair fucks to him .........ps send me a quid ;)

[Anon7547]

LOVE IT!!! xenu.net

[anonwillprevail247]

HAHAHAHA YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[jnycnuk]

isn't it funny how the tables have turned. now everyone is laughing at the cult of scientology. hard to believe that not too many years ago scilons actually frightened some.

[ninmachine109]

Travolta is the man but you can't practice scientology without taking some jazz. Ricky is awesome, i'd be honored if he said a joke about me LOL

[R3dUn1x]

This is funny! A lot of Americans don't understand witty British and Canadian comedy which is very sarcastic. Learn to lighten up America!

[elvisranger]

Not funny at all...

[golbarga]

Right on Ricky!

[anonymom17]

Ricky Gervais. Saying it like it is!

[morefishscale]

john travolta is not very glad about this joke

[RockAustinDXtakerRk0]

Lol good one but Cruise owns Ricky.

[EngramBT]

@RockAustinDXtakerRk0

Cruise owns Ricky because he thinks psychiatry is a pseudoscience? Cruise owns Ricky because the only way he obtained Katie Holmes as a wife is through an audition process? Tom Cruise is nuts, simple as that, because he refuses to read about the dark side of Scientology and is yet another clueless Scientology celebrity that refuses to research. Paul Haggis and Jason Beghe are celebrity ex-Scientologists now speaking out against this cult.

[RockAustinDXtakerRk0]

@EngramBT Hahahahaha i couldn't give 2 shits about Scientology and if i did you'd be the first i'd give it to. Ricky is very outspoken which at the same time causes a lot of controversy which is why hes a likeable man. I love Cruise on screen. I couldn't care less what goes on in his personal life, that's not of my concern. I'm not into religion but my parents are moderately conservative sikhs. He would find their religion utter crap and vice versa.

[Ellie8969]

@RockAustinDXtakerRk0 But Cruise is a hypocrite....making homophobic comments left, right and centre (to "hide" his sexuality) while behaving rather differently when he thinks no one's around. His sexuality is not the issue, his extraordinary hypocrisy is. He deserves all he gets, imo. John Travolta, on the other hand, is evidently a sweet, sweet guy who doesn't want to hide anything, but has found himself trapped.

[OpenComments]
