BAFTAs host apologizes after Tourette’s syndrome activist yells racial slur at Michael B Jordan and Delroy Lindo

Many in the room saw the funny side to the gaffe, but it appeared as though Jordan’s mother, Donna Jordan, did not find it amusing.Instead, when the camera panned to her, she could be seen awkwardly taking a sip of her drink as her son chuckled.

Glaser immediately acknowledged the inappropriateness of her joke when she realized Donna was in attendance.

« I’m so sorry. That should’ve been a DM, » she said.

The clip quickly went viral and the joke will surely go down as one of the most outrageous ever said at the Golden Globes.

Many fans took to X to share their thoughts on the moment, with one writing: « Somebody check on michael b jordan’s mom. »

Another pointed out: « Her face. »

Someone else said: « THIS IS THE FUNNIEST S**T IVE EVER HEARD. »

Donna spoke with Entertainment Weekly on the red carpet prior to the event and expressed her love for her son.

Jordan was nominated for Best Actor for his role in the Ryan Coogler-directed film, however, he lost out on the award to The Secret Agent’s Wagner Moura.
