As beloved of a figure as he is in Hollywood’s entertainment industry, Kevin Hart hardly has any feud with his fellow industry goers thanks to his amicable personality. But his fellow stand-up comedian cum actor Katt Williams seems to have tested just his patience, as the pair have reportedly had a long-ongoing ugly feud for around more than a decade now.
For years now, the pair have exchanged indirect blows with each other, with Hart even losing his patience at one point and openly calling out Williams over his incompetence. However, it seems like theJumanji: Welcome to the Jungleactor is now willing to put it in his past and move on, considering how he now regrets saying everything he said back then about Williams.
The time Kevin Hart blasted Katt Williams on live TV
While comedians are supposed to entertain fans and viewers with their performances, Katt Williams seemed to have taken it all to a whole other level whenhe decided to ignite a lengthy feudwith fellow peerKevin Hartby roasting him out live. And though Hart seems to have decided to mostly stay away from that drama, he just couldn’t sit quietly after one point of time.
This dates back to 2018, when Williams slammed Tiffany Haddish during an interview withV-103’sFrank and Wanda In The Morningas he questioned her comedic ability and whether she could pull crowds for a major tour. This, inevitably, didn’t sit well with Hart, who was busy promoting his comedy-drama with Haddish,Night School, during that very period.
Thus, he decided to openly blast theFriday After Nextstar in return. Appearing onThe Breakfast Clubpodcast, Hart took an open jab at Williams, saying: “My frustration with Katt Williams comes from, you keep pointing at Hollywood, ‘Hollywood and the white man, this, this, and this,’ when do you take responsibility for your actions? You had the shot! You were the guy!“

Adding, he further called out Williams over his alleged incompetence and lack of sincerity toward his work. He said, “You were set up to be the star! You didn’t show up to work. You f***** off promo shoots. You f***** off your promo f****** trips that they had set up for you. You became a risk to the studios which is why the studios stopped f****** with you.“
When asked why exactly theNorbitstar was a ‘risk‘ to the studios, theCentral Intelligenceactor didn’t hold back as he said: “He chose drugs.” As uncalled for as these unhinged jabs at Williams were, they ostensibly came as a result of the stand-up comedian’s never-ending digs at Hart, and then his co-starTiffany Haddish. But looking back now, Hart actually regrets his past words.
Kevin Hart now regrets his past comments on Katt Williams
Recently appearing onOut of Context with Charlamagne Tha God, theLiftactor was asked to address these very comments he made on Katt Williams back then. To this, he initially defended it, saying, “We were promoting Night School, and Tiffany was affected by some of the things [Williams] said. It was more of a, like, support for her in that moment and, like, some shots at him.“
At the same time, Hart also cleared it out that he regrets those words, but only because he shouldn’t even have to addressthe digs Williams takeson him as it would bring no gain to him in return. When asked if he regrets it, he said, “Yeah, I shouldn’t even- I should never address him. Like, at all. I don’t have to. Like, why? What will it do for me? What will I gain? There is no gain.“

I look at everything from a business and economic standpoint. If I’m investing in something, well, what is my return? What’s the return on my investment? What’s the return on my time? What’s the return on my energy? So that investment of self words dialogue brings me to what? And if I can’t answer that question or if people around me can’t answer that question, then it doesn’t get an inklet of energy.
That said, he also emphasized how this take has “nothing to do with people feeling like they’re above people, feeling like they’re better.” Rather, “It has to do with a strong understanding of you and yourself, [your] level of awareness. I can check all these boxes, but to some, they want to take it or misconstrue it, twisted a**. It’s not my problem, it doesn’t become my problem.“
Well, it sounds like ifKatt Williamstruly intends to come at Kevin Hart, he will have to do a lot more than just that, for Hart most certainly isn’t willing to invest his energy in anything that doesn’t guarantee him profits in return.
