People Are Saying Cancel Culture Doesn’t Exist After Louis CK Wins Grammy Award

The comedian has faced allegations of sexual harassment but as still taken out Best Comedy Album.

Comedian Louis CK has controversially won a Grammy Award, despite facing sexual harassment allegations.

He took out Best Comedy Album for Sincerely Louis CK and was up against the likes of Chelsea Handler, Nate Bargazte, Lewis Black, Kevin Hart and Lavell Crawford.

People were absolutely fuming about the award being given to CK and say it's proof that cancel culture isn't real.

People said the same thing when he was nominated for the Grammys last year.

Five women have accused the comedian of sexual harassment and he's previously addressed those claims saying they're true.

Back in 2017, he released a statement explaining the situation in graphic detail.

"I want to address the stories told to the New York Times by five women named Abby, Rebecca, Dana, Julia who felt able to name themselves and one who did not.

"These stories are true. At the time, I said to myself that what I did was okay because I never showed a woman my dick without asking first, which is also true.

"But what I learned later in life, too late, is that when you have power over another person, asking them to look at your dick isn’t a question.

"It’s a predicament for them. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly."

Bizarrely enough, he mentioned the issue in his now Grammy Award-winning special Sincerely Louis CK.

The nomination is for his most recent special 'Sincerely Louis CK' where he makes a direct joke about the allegations - he was accused by multiple women of sexually inappropriate behaviour.

As per The Independent, the comedian joked: "I like jerking off, I don't like being alone, that's all I can tell you.

"I get lonely, it's just sad.

"I like company.

"I like to share.

"I'm good at it, too.

"If you're good at juggling, you wouldn't do it alone in the dark.

"You'd gather folks and amaze them."
