So, imagine getting slapped by one of comedy’s kings at your workplace, then fired days after. Well, that’s what happened to the Target store employee in California, who was slapped by comedian, Katt Williams.
Details of the employee Forrest Liebenberg’s termination finally surfaced on the web yesterday by TMZ.
This is what was said:
A Target spokesperson confirms Forrest has been fired from the store … but explains, “His departure was unrelated to the video footage that has appeared online.” The rep adds, “Out of respect for the privacy of this individual, we cannot discuss the reasons for his departure.” After the incident, Forrest told CBS13 he’d been terminated from his job with no explanation — saying, “They weren’t very clear, but it is obvious to me that it was based on this incident.” He added, “Maybe I was a little uninformed about how seriously the situation was with Target, but obviously it is pretty serious.” Forrest says he doesn’t know if Target believes he’s the person who leaked the security footage to TMZ. He also claims he is NOT the leaker (TMZ).
Now news surfaced by the “smack bandit” himself, Katt Williams, that he was retiring from stand-up comedy, for good. Let’s revisit the news clip of one of America’s favorite stand-up guys, once again.
