has spent decades hero-worshipping British comedian Benny Hill. , 52, said the comic – killed by heart problems in 1992 aged 68 – meant “the world” to the “African-American community” when he was growing up in LA. said on a visit to the UK: “You know what was an attraction of mine, to London, as a kid? It was to meet Benny Hill, right? “Because Benny Hill was a bad motherf****r in California.
"He was funny as f**k, too! And we loved him. Like, I don’t even think y’all know how much he meant to the African-American community. He meant the f*****g world to us.
“The s**t he was doing on TV, they would never do in America.” Benny’s slapstick skits of the 1980s have been slammed as “sexist” and “misogynistic” and effectively “cancelled” in Britain.
