Andrew Lawrence

English comedian Andrew Lawrence has been dropped by his agent and had a number of shows canceled after tweeting a racist joke about England football players.

Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Bukayo Saka have been subjected to abuse after all missing spot kicks in England’s penalty shootout loss to Italy in Sunday’s Euro 2020 tournament final.

In a tweet on Monday, Lawrence said: “All

I’m saying is, the white guys scored.” He added: “Equality, diversity, s*** penalties.”

After being criticized for his comments, the funnyman later tweeted a reply, and said: “All I’m saying is, the white guys scored. I can see that this has offended a lot of people, and I’m sorry that black guys are bad at penalties.”

Soon after, Lawrence’s Twitter account was deleted, and several venues have since decided to cancel his shows. In an announcement on Twitter, the comic’s agency, RBM Comedy, said: “RBM no longer represent Andrew Lawrence.”
