The same day, he took on news that Kim Kardashian and West had bought a Bel-Air mansion, posting, "There goes the neighborhood!!! It looks like a Poor Persian Palace, where's Kris Jenner when you need her?! #MoneyCantBuyADumbN----Class."

Additionally, Palermo made a homophobic joke (not a funny one) about Cooper attending his boyfriend's recent bar opening in NYC, simply writing, "#SmellsLikeLubeAndHIV."

While Palermo isn't directly defending his racist remarks, he told E! News earlier today, "Ever since the Emmys I have canceled my Facebook account because it is so easy for things to be misread."

He also confessed to THR, "I stopped caring about what Hollywood thinks of me years ago. I've got nothing to lose, nothing to gain. I'm a bored dude, unemployed, sitting at home in the Valley. For me, some of the best ways to overcome serious issues is to laugh about them. Because then you truly understand where that ignorance is coming from."
