Ricky Gervais Says People ‘Mistake’ His Jokes For Being A Window To His Soul

By Greg Evans

We all need a bit of a laugh, especially now, and Ricky Gervais is delivering the goods.

Ricky Gervais generates both tears and laughter in his Netflix series, “After Life”, but a new video of outtakes taken from filming of the Netflix comedy’s second season is all about hilarity.

Ricky Gervais has slammed rich celebrities who go on social media to lecture the public while the NHS work tirelessly to save lives amid the coronavirus pandemic. In an interview with BBC Radio 5 Live, the 58 year old, who is worth an estimated £110 million himself, launched into an epic rant, explaining that while other celebrities, who he did not name, might be moaning about isolation, no one will hear him complain.

Ricky Gervais isn’t holding back his thoughts on celebrities lecturing normal people on the importance of self-quarantine.

British comedian Ricky Gervais continues to roast Hollywood’s elites whom he believes are becoming lecturers to the general public amid the global coronavirus pandemic and should simply stop trying to tell others what to do. "I've got nothing against anyone being a celebrity or being famous," he told the New York Times in an interview published on Thursday.

Ricky Gervais says people are mistaken about his brand of comedy.

"They think that every joke is a window to the comedian’s soul"

He's an outspoken comedian by trade but Ricky Gervais doesn't want people to think he's a jerk. The 58-year-old comic is known for telling jokes that most would be too afraid to say aloud.
