AceShowbiz - Comedian Jerry Seinfeld has poked fun at his famously awkward encounter with Ke$ha following a comedy meeting with Cardi B.
The former Seinfeld star is completely ignored by the rapper as she gatecrashes his interview with Zach Galifianakis on the latest edition of the funnyman's Between Two Ferns spoof chat show.
The Hangover star is totally disrespectful towards "irrelevant" Jerry during their chat, and urges his guest to give up his seat and sit on the edge of a plant pot when Cardi walks onto the set.
He then tells the rapper to ignore Jerry as she walks off, prompting Seinfeld to quip, "That was the opposite of what happened with Kesha".
The comedian hit the headlines last summer (Jun17) when he refused to hug pop star Kesha on the red carpet at the National Night of Laughter and Song event in Washington, D.C.
The Tik Tok star interrupted an interview to tell Seinfeld she was a fan to kick off the awkward exchange, which was caught on camera and quickly went viral.
"I'm 63, I don't know every pop star... I don't know everyone," he later added, before noting he is not fond of hugging a "total stranger".
"When you get to be my age and you've done a couple things, you have your own reality, in my reality... I don't hug a total stranger," Jerry added. "I have to meet someone, say hello. I gotta start somewhere... hug isn't first moment (instinct) of a human, two humans (sic). I never did that".
Jerry insists he and Kesha are now on good terms after talking it out after the incident: "She was very nice about it, we laughed about it," he said.
