Less than two weeks after calling Sean Spicer his “friend,” Karamo Brown now claims he barely knows the guy.
Speaking to reporters after his elimination from Dancing With The Stars on October 28, Brown said, “My goal coming into this was to introduce myself to people who have never seen Queer Eye, to let them know who I am.”
Asked about Spicer, Brown replied, “Through this process, Sean’s trailer has been next to mine and I have literally every day been planting seeds in his heart.”
“And literally, I could see each week those seeds … blossoming and that’s why [when I was sent home] he got emotional,” he continued.
“Sean is literally someone who I would’ve never thought I could be friends with, and I’m going to walk away from here calling him a friend. I’m proud of him. I really am proud of him, because he’s had fun every week and I think he’s exceptional.”
Well, what a difference a week and a half makes!
Cut to last night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, when Brown basically said the exact opposite of what he said the week before.
“He can’t dance,” Brown told host Andy Cohen. “Middle America watches the show and they vote for him. And also our president, who should be doing other stuff, has been tweeting ‘vote for the man.'”
Jeez. Way to make a blanket statement about all of Middle America, Karamo.
The 38-year-old continued, “I was nice to Sean Spicer. But there was no friendship. I was just saying that, if we’re going to be on the same show, I’m going to have a respectful conversation with someone who’s different from me.”
Evidently, Brown was just kidding when he told reporters he was going to “walk away from here calling [Spicer] a friend.”
As for the harsh criticism he received for praising Spicer earlier in the season, Brown said that was just him being respectful.
“If you’ve never seen me on television, I’m always going to be the person to build a bridge,” Brown explained.
Watch.

Once they’ve sold out — Sean Spicer, Hope Hicks, Kellyanne Conway et al. — they’re sold out forever. Welcome to the list, Karamo.

I’ve never really cared whether he called Spicer a friend or not. The back stabber twit is a basic nobody anyways.

So you lied, got backlash, doubled down on the lie, and NOW after more backlash say he was never a friend?
So he either lied when he called him a friend, or he’s lying now. Either way……f-off.

When did leftists become such hateful closed minded and judgmental f*ckers?

Must’ve been after the Radical Right adopted and normalized that kind of behavior many years ago.

Waaaaah, the right wing troll doesn’t like when people point out that bigots shouldn’t be excused.

Does the asshole Andy Cohen own Queerty? Because his excruciatingly loud and thoroughly offense personality is constantly on this site in one form or another.

All those Queer Eye guys are a bunch of freaks

If you want to build bridges……fine, but you can do it without kissing ass or endorsing them.
