CNN’s Don Lemon Says Actor Jonah Hill Snubbed Him


Black CNN anchor Don Lemon has gotten into some Twitter beef with Academy-Award-nominated comic white actor Jonah Hill.

Lemon allegedly tried to say hello to the Superbad actor after recognizing him at a hotel.

“Said hi to @jonahhill in hotel. Think he thought i was bellman. Didn’t know his name til bellman told me. A lesson to always be kind,” Lemon tweeted. The anchor even vented his feelings about the incident on Soledad O’ Brien’s show on CNN, saying that Hill “treated him like the help.”

Hill, who plays a slave driver in the upcoming Quentin Tarantino film Django Unchained, responded : “I said hi what do you want me to do move in with you? I was in a hurry. Didn’t realize you were a 12 year old girl. Peace,” he tweeted. “I walked out of the restroom and found you waiting for me. Shook hands, said hi and was on my way. Sorry if you found that rude.”
