Dane…Care to Explain?
A tipster just sent us a bulletin (see bulletin below) that Doug Stanhope just posted on Myspace. Stanhope re-posted an email that he got from someone that saw Cook at the Melrose Improv. The person essentially claims Dane Cook stole a Stanhope bit. Stanhope clearly agrees. Can we get an explanation from both sides? Dane…say it ain’t so.
MYSPACE BULLETIN:
Stanhope,
I went to a show at the Melrose Improv last night, and this surprise guest comic gets onstage and starts doing this long bit about how he had to take this girl to get an abortion and how ridiculous the experience was, and then started talking about going to Heaven, and how he’d be so happy to see his grandma in Heaven, but when he got to Heaven, there was this little pissed off guy giving him shit and it was his abortion, furious at him.
And the comic was fucking Dane Cook.
Thought you should know. I got really mad. Interest is definitely waning in that douche, even in the frat crowd. I feel like people are finally realizing what a fucking joke he is and how unfunny his “jokes” are, but if he tries to make a comeback using YOUR shit so HE can get fans, I’m gonna lose it.
-Jenny

Good work, Dane.
I’m glad someone remembers how my bits go.

It’s no secret that Dane has been accused of this in the past. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, please google “Dane & Louie CK”
However, can we get anybody else from that night at the Improv to back up “Jenny” before we start pointing fingers?
I’m not a big Dane fan myself. But the guy deserves a fair fight before the accusations start getting published. And I say this, as a guy who has a friend who he and I (and others) strongly believe Dane stole a bit from. It was published in People magazine… the joke… not the accusations. We all read the article - we know what show my friend did that Dane showed up to - but at least that has more than one person shouting “thief!”
