You may have already forgotten, but there was some sorta big storm in Haiti earlier this year, and apparently millions of people are still without clothes, shelter, or a President.  Over the last few months, musician Wyclef Jean has been slowly-but-surely angling to become the Haitian President following the complete collapse of that country's government, and Sean Penn's been throwing wrenches in his gears.  Now Wyclef's thrown one back, and it's a doozy.  Read about it below, my gentle Examiner readers...

Last week, we featured a video that seemed to offer proof that Sean Penn has a sense of humor.  We came away convinced that he must be hiding one somewhere on his person, after all, but now we're wondering how much good humor Penn's going to be displaying in the near future following some comments that Haitian-President-wannabe Wyclef Jean has tossed his way this weekend.  As you well know, Sean Penn's been moping around Haiti for the past few months, helping clean up the joint a bit, and Wyclef's been there as well, angling for a chance to be President.  Basically, a massive ego war has been taking place in Haiti for the past few months.

Well, after Sean Penn went to the press and mentioned a few things about Wyclef's aloof attempts at taking the top spot in Haiti's government, Jean apparently had enough and decided to snap back.  At a recent "On Da Reggae Tip" concert being put on by radio station HOT 97 in New York City, Jean said:  "If I was president….I got a message for Sean Penn, maybe he ain't see me in Haiti because he was too busy sniffing cocaine. I got a message for Praswell, even though you don't want to support me, I got love for you, even though you only kicked eight bars for the Fugees."  Uhm...

I guess someone needs to make it official: Oh, SNAP, Sean Penn.  You just got told by a Fugee.  Wyclef Jean, to be precise.  Call in the waiters, because you're being served.  You just got straight-up told by a President-to-be, son.  There's simply no other way to put it: Sean Penn, that's called getting told, and you just did.  Does anyone have that infographic/flow-chart thing that explains the "getting told" process, just in case Penn's not clear on this one?

Stay tuned for more celebrity news, funny videos, reviews, interviews, and more from Comedy Examiner HQ in the days and weeks ahead.  If you've got something you'd like to add to the conversation, be sure and leave it in the comments section below.  While you're here, let's go ahead and take a look at some of the smack-talking that kick-started this celebrity rivalry: Sean Penn talking maaad sh-t about Wyclef on CNN.  Check it out, boi:

    wyclef refers to himself as the mafia, "i will crush you" if you don't tow his line...

    and he has the thug power (mouth money men) to do it!

    ...and what was the name of that 'sorta big storm', dumbass?

  • Anonymous 1 year ago

    Of course you know Wyclef can't be president? According to Haitian law, he would have had to live in the country for the prior five years. That didn't happen.

    I thought this was old news after the Haitian government told Jean he coudn't run for president because he is not a legal resident. So why are these two still tossing off comments to each other? Still, it's funny...and very well-written. M.

    if penn is so concernedwith the information delivered over his crackberry about the young woman who is dying from a bad tooth he should take some the the filthy corporate lucre he has earned in his overpaid career of pretending, and put his money where her mouth is
    instead of just yapping about it in his decidely unhelpful facetime on cnn ' we've got to fill up this empty airtime' broadcast network
    let him prove his veracity by cutting loose a few quid, how expensive could a little oral surgery in haiti cost? - but maybe it'll cut into his blow budget
    bleh
