Chris Jericho Gossip

WWE star Chris Jericho stirred up controversy after making a slew of offensive slurs against Middle Easterners and gays at the Sacramento Horror Film Festival.

At screening of a movie in which he appears, Jericho took part in a Q&A session and referred to the moderator as "Hadji," a racial slur against Middle Easterners.

After the first wave of slurs, and a random shot at Paris Hilton, the host jokingly takes Jericho's drink to sniff it for booze. Chris chimed in, "it's apple juice, f*g."

Jericho later said, "After seeing the video I realize some inappropriate comments were made and I apologize if I offended anybody. Just know that everyone on stage was having a blast! The good news is I got my wish of being posted on TMZ!"
