Head writer of ‘Saturday Night Live’ Michael Che was caught in a controversy when he posted jokes about Olympic gymnast Simone Biles. The comedian received backlash for his posts and soon ended up deleting related posts from his Instagram account on Thursday.

Che took to his Instagram story, where he said, “man, i wanna make fun of Simone biles,” followed by “i got like 3 mins of simone biles jokes in my head. im going to the cellar tonight to say them into a microphone. as the dorky kids say, im choosing violence.”

Michael Che further rated two jokes from certain Instagram users out of 10 on his story and rated the jokes out of 10. A Twitter user shared the screenshot of the aforementioned story before it was deleted that said, “Larry Nassar understands Simone Biles better than anyone. He too had to quit doing what he loved at the pinnacle of his career because of mounting pressure.” To which Michael Che responded, “goddamn, thats rough. absolutely tasteless. 9/10.”

The ‘Saturday Night Live’ head writer later claimed that his account was hacked. He posted a story with an explanation and stated, “maaannnn, i got hacked today. cant believe they got me. yall kno i only do jokes about whites and cops. s’all good now, i changed my password and everything..anyway, ya’ll hear about dababy tho..? thats crazy..iight. see yall at church. imma get there early.” This was in reference to the homophobic comments made by rapper DaBaby at the Rolling Loud music festival recently.
