Dressed in a sporty ensemble, he completed his look with gray chunky sneakers and a luxurious gold wristwatch. Despite a serious injury from a previous incident involving his classic car, he appeared to be in good shape and health. The accident occurred on September 1, 2019, when his friend Jared Black was driving his 1970 Plymouth Barracuda too fast, causing it to roll into a ditch. Kevin Hart, along with his friend’s fiancée, was a passenger in the car. Hart was the only one able to exit the vehicle on his own. After leaving the scene, he went home to seek medical attention. According to the California Highway Patrol report.
Health scare: Kevin experienced a serious back injury in September when his vintage 1970 Plymouth Barracuda accidentally veered off the road and into a ditch.
Seeking assistance: The comedian did not drive away from the scene, but instead, departed to seek medical attention at his residence, as reported by the California Highway Patrol.
Helping a friend: Kevin was seen out and about showing his support for Ellen DeGeneres in the midst of her workplace scandal. Ellen, a fellow comedian, faced accusations of fostering a toxic workplace environment where producers allegedly sexually harassed employees and racist comments were made on set. Despite these serious allegations, Ellen herself has not been directly implicated. However, former employees claimed on social media that she had some unusual behavior, like requiring them to chew gum from a bowl before talking to her to ensure fresh breath, and insisting on employees showering if she felt they had a bad smell. Kevin stood by Ellen, joining other celebrities in defending her on Instagram this week.
Negative: On Instagram, Kevin came forward to support Ellen after former employees raised allegations of her ignoring producers’ sexual misconduct. He expressed his disbelief at seeing his friend facing public scrutiny and defended her as an amazing person. Kevin shared how Ellen has always shown love and respect to him and his team. He expressed his disappointment at the negativity rampant on the internet and called for an end to the culture of celebrating the downfall of others. Kevin emphasized the importance of returning to a kinder and more loving society. While some criticized Kevin’s message, highlighting the mistreatment of staff members, it was noted that there were no reports of guests or celebrity friends being treated poorly by Ellen or her producers.
Not a supporter: After facing backlash from social media users for supporting Ellen despite allegations of her mistreating employees rather than her peers, he took to Instagram with a brief clip criticizing social media.
Later that day, Kevin took to Instagram to express frustration over the negative feedback his initial post received on social media.
Some social media users accused him of siding with Ellen because she had defended him publicly in January 2019 and had him on her show to help repair his reputation following the resurfacing of his past homophobic tweets.
Hart had stepped down as host of the Oscars due to the controversy, but DeGeneres’ support appeared to have helped improve his public image at that time.
Ellen stood up for Kevin back in the day when he decided to step down as host of the Oscars because of old homophobic tweets coming to light. Critics thought that by having him on her show, she was trying to improve his reputation. This happened in January.
