The Philadelphia Tribune 03 Jan 2020 Comedian Paul Mooney 's twin sons took to social media to clear up what's going on with their father. Recently, Richard Pryor 's former bodyguard, Rashon Khan, who has a tell-all book coming out, claimed Paul Mooney, 78, had sex with Pryor 's then underage son Richard Jr... Rumors of Paul Mooney having dementia have been out for some time. Edit Paul Mooney's sons speak out about Richard Pryor Jr. sexual assault allegations 12 Sep 2019 Paul Mooney 's sons, Daryl and Dwayne have come forward to deny claims that their father sexually abused the son of late comedian Richard Pryor... Kahn, who has an upcoming book titled Everything Wasn't Funny, states in a video interview that the two comedians "relationship became fragile because Paul Mooney had f****d Richard 's son by that time. Edit Paul Mooney Cancels Comedy Show Amid Rumor About Richard Pryor's Son Vibe Magazine 30 Aug 2019 Legendary comedian Paul Mooney canceled an upcoming gig in Atlanta and will reportedly be taking time off, amid allegations that he slept with Richard Pryor 's son years ago, which he has denied... Paul Mooney, " a rep for the comedian said.
It is important to note, however, that the story was initially reported inaccurately by alluding to Mooney raping Pryor's son. But Richard Jr. was born in 1962 and had his alleged encounter with Mooney around 1986. "So from there on, whatever Paul Mooney was to Richard, and there was a time when Paul Mooney was Richard's friend (... ) so when Paul did what he did it was a violation of friendship, first, and then my son, " Kahn added. "And in some circles that's supposed to be dealt with. " Kahn also noted that Pryor was furious "to the extent that Richard didn't want [Mooney] on the planet anymore. " As a result, the comic offered $1 million to whoever would do the dirty work and get rid of Paul Mooney. Ironically, Pryor's infamous burning incident occurred around the same time which diverted his attention to seeking revenge on Mooney and was devoted to rehabbing after suffering serious burns.

When asked about their relationship around the time of Pryor's death in 2005, Kahn alleged that at that point it'd been bad for nearly two decades. "From Jo Jo Dancer [1986] on their relationship became fragile because Paul Mooney had f*cked Richard's son by that time, " Kahn said. At that point he states that Mooney "violated" Richard which appears to have led several media outlets to inaccurately report that whatever went on between the two was rape, though what Kahn appears to mean is Pryor's trust because, again, Jo Jo Dancer, Your Life is Calling came out in '86, and Richard Jr. was born in 1962. "So from there on, whatever Paul Mooney was to Richard, and there was a time when Paul Mooney was Richard's friend (... ) so when Paul did what he did it was a violation of friendship, first, and then my son, " Kahn continued. "And in some circles that's supposed to be dealt with. " When asked by the interviewer if the subject of retaliation was ever brought up, Kahn replied in the affirmative and stated that it was "to the extent that Richard didn't want [Mooney] on the planet anymore. "
Daryl then went on to say "Rashon, fu** you, okay. Coming out with some bullsh** like that when Paul is ailing after he's old. If the sh** was hot you should've told that sh** years ago. ain't say nothing about it, so how you gonna tell somebody's business. " Richard Pryor Jr. has alluded to a relationship with Mooney in a fast street interview with TMZ. He said, "Whatever happened in my life, it happened when I was young. Way before the '80s. " When the cameraperson asked if his alleged relationship with Mooney was consensual, Pryor replied, "How can any relationship be consensual if I was a teenager? " He refused to elaborate on the subject after this. The Mooney brothers peeped the TMZ interview but still maintain that Pryor Jr. never mentioned Paul Mooney by name. In regards to the accusation that Richard Pryor Sr. put a hit on Paul Mooney, Dwayne responded, "Richard Pryor was high every goddamn day. He probably put a hit on everybody. He probably put a hit on his momma. " In another Comedy Hype video posted on Wednesday, the Mooney's were asked about rumors that their father was gay.
Daryl responded, "I don't know, he ain't never tried to fuck us. How we supposed to know? " He continued, "They used to say a whole lot of folks was gay. That's Hollywood. There's a whole lot of folks in Hollywood who are gay, there's a whole lot of folks in Hollywood that you think are gay that are not gay. " When asked what the response would be if Paul Mooney turned out to be gay, Dwayne said, "I don't think it would be a big deal. " Daryl added, "Does it matter if he's bisexual? If it matters that he's bisexual that means you're homophobic. " You can watch the full video below. Also On NewsOne:
