Tracy Morgan slammed for saying he wants to ‘climb’ Michelle Obama

LOS ANGELES — “30 Rock” actor Tracy Morgan was getting slammed Wednesday for dishing the raunchy details of his sexual attraction to First Lady Michelle Obama earlier this week.

Morgan called the stylish wife of President Barack Obama a “beast,” adding “Michelle looks like a tall mountain…I’m gonna climb it just cos it’s there” on the “Lopez Tonight” show Monday.

“Michelle [Obama] said, ‘Hi Tracy,’ and I just like, I got hard,” the crude comedian shared about meeting the first lady at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last summer.

“Woah the #american people are collectively pissed off at Tracy Morgan,” one Twitter follower wrote Wednesday, with another critic tweeting Morgan is “undeserving of the privilege of meeting the First Lady.”

A spokesperson for George Lopez’s TBS talk-show did not respond to a request for comment on the interview.

In January, TNT apologized when Morgan called former Alaska governor Sarah Palin “good masturbation material” during an informal chat before the network’s broadcast of a NBA game.

“It’s unfortunate Mr. Morgan showed a lack of judgment on our air with his inappropriate comments,” the cable network said in a statement at the time.
