The CNN host, who's already embroiled in controversy over his kid gloves treatment of his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, made his controversial comment Friday night as he was signing off and passing the baton to Don Lemon by singing the theme song to Good Times. As Cuomo delivered his rendition, Lemon chuckled and asked, "How do you know the words to Good Times?" "You know I'm Black on the inside," Cuomo responded. Cuomo later addressed the remark on Twitter, writing: "Said with all respect to reality and our need to fight this amplification of color animus. There is no understanding what it is to live as a black person in America if you are white but it is so important to listen. The majority must change racism."
