Law & Order creator Dick Wolf refused to shake Matthew Perry's hand at a benefit on Saturday after the actor made an offensive joke about Native Americans.

Perry was hosting The Lili Claire Foundation fundraiser in Los Angeles when he revealed he once attended an event honoring Native Americans, joking organizers weren't able to find a famous Indian host.

Flags of Our Fathers star Adam Beach, a member of the Salteaux Indian tribe, looked visibly upset and when he later shared the stage with his pal Wolf, the TV mogul told the audience, "I don't know where Matt is, but here is your American Indian."

Everybody has to be so dramatic. :rolleyes:

If it was a really offensive joke, I'd understand someone getting upset. But this doesn't sound offensive to me. It was a joke. I don't know where Dick Wolf and Adam Beach are but lighten up.

It was far from the WORST racist joke that Ive ever heard, but, he should apologise

I guess Matt won't be doing any guest roles on "Law And Order" now.

Not the most offensive thing i've heard a celebrity say (Kramer gets that title) but in this day and age someone will have a problem with anything.

BTW, I have no idea who Adam Beach is. Does that make me racist too?

If it does make you a racist, then it makes me one too. Because I've never heard of him either. :)

I couldn't agree more.
