Rob Schneider said he thinks cancel culture is “over” despite getting booed at his gig earlier this month.
The “Hot Chick” star, 60, was seen walking through the streets with a drink in hand when The New York Post caught up with him just before he left with friends.

When asked what he thinks of cancel culture, he told the cameraman, “It’s over.”
Schneider also teased his potential appearance in some of his friend Adam Sandler’s forthcoming sequel films, including “Happy Gilmore 2” and the possibility of a third installment in another Sandler franchise.
“There better be,” he said when asked if there might be a “Grown Ups 3” movie in the works, adding that he would be interested in starring.
On June 1, Schneider performed a comedy set at a hospital fundraiser in Canada, but guests weren’t exactly too happy with his alleged “transphobic, misogynistic and anti-vax” jokes.
“Everyone in the room was groaning, saying, ‘What is going on?’ Like, whispering to themselves,” guest Tynan Allan told the CBC earlier this week. “Not a single laugh at times.”
“It was just very apparent how uncomfortable everyone felt and how unacceptable the things he was talking about were,” Allan continued.
The hospital later issued a statement condemning Schneider’s jokes.
“While we recognize that in a free and democratic society, individuals are entitled to their views and opinions and that comedy is intended to be edgy, the content, positions and opinions expressed during Mr. Schneider’s set do not align with the values of our foundation and team,” the Hospitals of Regina Foundation said.
“We do not condone, accept, endorse or share Mr. Schneider’s positions, as expressed during his comedy set, and acknowledge that in this instance the performance did not meet the expectations of our audience and our team.”
