"Breakfast Club" listeners are upset with what Jess Hilarious had to say.

Jess Hilarious has been on The Breakfast Club for a while now, where she has effectively replaced Angela Yee. However, just like most changes to any popular show, there has been a feeling-out process. Some people love the addition of Hilarious. Although, there are some people who don't. Overall, this polarization was to be expected, especially when you consider how long the original Breakfast Club trio was doing it for. Unfortunately, Hilarious fell out of favor with fans today as she made some not-so-great comments about the DaniLeigh situation.

To bring everyone up to speed here, DaniLeigh was arrested yesterday for Driving Under the Influence. She allegedly engaged in a hit-and-run where she ended up fracturing a man's vertebrae. Overall, this is a very shocking and upsetting story for many reasons. Drunk driving is very serious, and DaniLeigh very well could have killed someone. Subsequently, Charlamagne Tha God made her his Donkey of the Day. However, Jess Hilarious used the segment to make jokes and excuses for the songstress.

Jess Hilarious Upsets Fans

In the clip above, Hilarious claims that we need to think about the singer's mental health. Moreover, she continuously made jokes in which she underplayed the entire thing. This consequently led to some very strong YouTube comments from people who were upset with the flippant attitude presented by the host. "I ain’t gona lie this was NOT the Donkey of the day to makes jokes on or excuses for. This issue is a lot more serious to some people then most ppl realize," one person wrote. "The fact that Jess can make jokes this situation and make excuses is sick!" said another.

Many of the other comments shared similar, yet stronger sentiments. There is always a time and place for jokes, but this was definitely not one of them. Unfortunately, Jess Hilarious had to learn the hard way here. Let us know what you think of the situation, in the comments section below.
