“The first season these dance instructors were normal people. They’re not exactly living the high life. They put them on TV and they develop personalities. They all have become full of themselves. And Maksim is very taken with himself. He doesn’t like to be criticized. The whole show is being criticized and he doesn’t like it… Well, he is dancing with Brandy … This guy is yelling at her, giving her the business about how she has to work harder. She’s being a good sport about it, pretending like this actually matters if they’re dancing the f***ing samba correctly. All of the sudden, while he’s training her he starts smacking her on the ass. This guy is training a woman, a black woman. You know when a man walks by a woman and makes a sound like she’s a fine horse? He’s smacking her on the ass like she’s his personal property, like back in the slave days. I was astounded they were showing this on TV.”
– Howard Stern going off about Maksim Chmerkovskiy treatment of his partner Brandy on Dancing With The Stars.
A lot of people hate Howard because they just hear the things he says that are so honest that they seem offensive, but I love him because he also always says stuff like this. He’s a man of strong, smart opinions.
I couldn’t agree more about Maksim’s treatment of Brandy and how absolutely disgusting it is that the producers allow their professional relationship to be played out like that on camera.
Gotta agree with Stern and with your reaction.
As a woman she may have been disrespected, but people from other countries don’t burden themselves with always trying not to make a black person seem like a slave. That is an affliction almost exclusive to self-burdening American white people. That is why it’s so freeing to travel. People everywhere aren’t as p.c. as Americans try to be.
News flash: He’s not from America. His culture does not have the same history as ours does regarding slavery and discrimination against black people.
I dislike Howard Stern because of things like this: When he makes outlandish statements that can hurt people without even giving a thought to whether or not what he’s saying makes sense. He’s a shock jock, and he’s at the top of his field because he is really good at making big stories out of nothing.
It’s probably not racism. It’s probably not even a lack of respect for women. If you’ve ever been to a serious dance class (not the glorified day care most 4 year-old girls are put through) they treat you like a piece of malfunctioning meat for every step you take out of place.
I got caned on the backs of my legs for fucking up in ballet, I would have happily been patted on the ass instead.

Well, Jackie, perhaps you should relocate to another country permanently if it’s such a burden for you to be a decent human being. It’s a shame. The term “PC” has turned into an excuse for assholes when they’re being assholes as opposed to what it actually means.
Howard Stern is a douche bag, and a hypocrite. Back in the early 90’s he would call Oprah a, and I quote, “a fat nig broad”. So Stern now comes off as this great tolerant person, when the things he said, back then, are some of the racist things I’ve heard all done in the name of comedy.
I have listened to Howard since the 80s and never heard him say such a thing.
The racial stuff is like Archie Bunker. He’s making fun of people who are racist and dumb.
Btw, just 2 weeks ago they played a best of from his days at NBC, and one morning Don Imus had just called Howard’s co-host Robin a “dumb n-word.” Howard was horrified and enraged and inconsolable. He is not what people often think.
I don’t need to move to another country because I love this country, as evidenced by my U.S. military service. And there are many things that are a burden to me, however, being a decent human being is not one of them. Don’t fool yourself into believing that being p.c. is making you a decent human being, it just forces people hide the way they really feel. Lastly, I don’t need an excuse to be an asshole, however, as a black woman I become a little uncomfortable when someone feels it’s their responsibility to let me know when I’m being discriminated against, and I have a feeling Brandy may feel the same way.
I agree minus the “black woman” part. It has NOTHING to do with race! Maybe if people stopped making race an issue where it’s not than people would start seeing each other as equal and not notice the color of someone skin so much.
i also don’t think it has anything to do with race. i think it does, however, have everything to do with sex – he’s a guy teaching a woman how to dace. he is leading. she is following. he’s “whipping” her into shape and showing her who’s boss, so she pays attention. i think he may be harsh with her, but it’s how he gets results and i also think there’s a little sexual spanking naughty girl stuff going on too – and i think she likes it! race probably never even came into mind.
