Ugh! We knew Hulk Hogan’s racist rant against now 27-year-old daughter Brooke‘s black boyfriend existed, after all the transcripts from the tape were enough to get the 62-year-old wrestler fired from the WWE in July 2015. But now the actual audio is out there for everyone to hear, and it’s so disturbing to see how casually he fires off the word “n****r.”
The audio came from the 2011 sex tape that Hulk didn’t know he was participating in with Heather Clem, the now ex-wife of his friend and radio personality Bubba the Love Sponge, 49. While the sex tape and audio transcripts were already made public, the actual tape of Hulk saying the horrible racist words was finally released Apr. 14 via the soundcloud site Death And Taxes and be warned, it’s graphic!
“So it gets to the point where…I dunno if [daughter] Brooke was f***ing the black guy’s son, or they’ve been hanging out,”Hulk is heard telling Heather on the tape. “I caught them holding hands together on the tour,” he adds in a completely calm voice.
“They were getting close to kind of [INAUDIBLE] the f*****g [INAUDIBLE]. I’m not a double-standard type of guy, I’m a racist to a point, y’know, f***ing n*****s, but then, when it comes to nice people…” Hulk continues before Heather jumps in to say “We all are [racist] that way.”
“I mean, I’d rather if she was going to f*** some n*****, I’d rather have her marry an 8-foot-tall n***** worth a hundred million dollars! Like a basketball player! I guess we’re all a little racist. F*****g n*****.” he continues on with his vile thoughts. Thankfully that’s the last of the audio that was released because we really couldn’t take hearing any more talk like that.
The audio cost Hulk his career, as when transcripts of the tape were published by Radar Online, he was immediately canned by the WWE as well as losing his judging spot on USA’s Tough Enough. He went on a major apology tour but it wasn’t enough to get him his jobs back.
Hulk – real name Terry Bollea – ended up suing Gawker Media for $100 million for violating his privacy and showing over a minute of the sex tape on Gawker’s website, and a Florida jury returned a verdict in his favor on Mar. 19 for $115 million in compensatory damages and another $25 million in punitive damages. But all that money still won’t be able to get his career back on track after his racist rants.
