A stand-up routine by comedian Eddie Griffin was cut short in Miami, Florida on Friday night when the Undercover Brother star showered the audience with expletives and repeatedly used the word "n**ger".

Griffin was stopped midway through his show at a Black Enterprise magazine event when organizers took offense to his language. Publication spokesman Andrew Wadium says, "We believe that ending the performance was the appropriate action."

Why would Black Enterprises magazine book Eddie for a show anyway when they know he has a foul mouth? They should've gotten somebody that does clean comedy like Sinbad, Robert Townsend and Cedric The Entertainer.
