Not long ago, footage of Comedian Corey Holcomb punching a woman—an accusation which he denied—circulated online. Now Holcomb is going after media outlets, like TMZ, that reported on the incident.
“I lost a lot of my gigs, by the way, thank you, TMZ,” Holcomb said on a recent episode of his 5150 podcast. “I lost another gig today…Y’all got me good, TMZ. I’m ’bout to be out here on welfare.” After a clip of the conversation made its rounds online, Holcomb faced heavy criticism for his remarks. Many faulted the comedian for not taking responsibility for his actions.
“The epitome of a f—g loser is Corey Holcomb. No accountability at all!,” one X user wrote.
“Corey Holcomb crying because he’s losing gigs for hitting a woman on video, and he’s STILL not taking accountability,” someone else posted.
Another X user likened Holcomb to a high school bully. “Corey Holcomb is coming across like that bully you went to highschool with, that never grew up. Go back to your home time, they still there…thinking they’re still cool. But in reality everybody laughing at them now.”
Back in November 2024, TMZ broke the story, but at the time, no footage was made available. However, last month, the footage was obtained and shared by an Instagram account named The Bizi. The pair had been embroiled in what appears to be a heated argument in front of Hollywood Improv, surrounded by a group of people. Per the outlet, the pair had been feuding for quite some time before this incident.
