Kevin Hart’s former wife Torrei Hart joins rival Katt Williams on Dark Matter Tour
Kevin Hart’s former wife Torrei Hart recently announced that she would be joining comedian Katt Williams on his Dark Matter Tour. The announcement from the comedian comes at a very interesting time as Williams, on his appearance on the Club Shay Shay episode, called out numerous comedians, including Kevin Hart. He said,
“In 15 years in Hollywood, no one in Hollywood has a memory of going to a sold out Kevin Hart show or there being a line for him or even getting a standing ovation at any comedy club. He already had his deals when he go here.”
He continued,
“Have we heard of a comedian that came to L.A., and in his first year in L.A., he had his own sitcom on network television and had his own movie called ‘Soul Plan’ that he was leading? No, we’ve never heard of that before that person, or since that person. What do you think a plant is? Didn’t Kevin open the gate and let Tiffany Haddish in? There are 100 gates out here. Everyone I’ve seen got a keeper.”
Torrei took to her social media to announce that she would be joining the comedian for his upcoming tour. She also shared a viral clip from Williams’ interview with Shannon Sharpe, where he says he only tours with ‘comedians who are funnier than me.’
Williams and Hart have been in a one-sided feud, according to Atlanta Black Star, since 2014, when Williams claimed on TMZ Sports that Shaquille O’Neal stole Kevin Hat from him. Hart had performed for Shaquille O’Neal Presents All-Star Comedy Jam in 2009. In 2016, Williams then went ahead to criticize the actor and called him a puppet. The two of them have taken jabs at each other over the years, and Torrei’s addition to Williams’ tour acts like putting oil to the fire.
