Saturday Night Live alum Rob Schneider has become one of comedy's most controversial figures due to his increasingly divisive routines. The comedian rose to fame on SNL in the early 1990s, where he was rarely known for taking part in the sketch show's political humor. However, Schneider grew increasingly more controversial in recent years, leading up to him being asked to stop a performance at a Canadian fundraiser due to his offensive jokes in 2014. "People get upset about things now. And that's OK," Schneider told The Hollywood Reporter at the time.
