Tom Hanks’ son Chet confronts Eric André over comedian’s past comments about him

I HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS ALL DAY AND LIKE, CHET HANKS JUST STRAIGHT UP AMBUSHED ERIC ANDRE AT COMPLEXCON WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE CHET IS RECORDING THE WHOLE THING ON HIS PHONE, CLAIMING ERIC HAS SOME SORT OF BEEF WITH HIM OVER THAT OLD JAMAICAN ACCENT THING HE DID. CHET IS POSTING ALL THIS DRAMA ON INSTAGRAM, SAYING ERIC HAD FOUR SECURITY GUARDS AND COMPLETELY FORGOT HE TRASHED CHET ON HIS OWN SHOW, BUT THEN ACCORDING TO CHET, ERIC SUDDENLY REMEMBERED AND STARTED GOING OFF ABOUT CULTURAL ACTIVISM OR SOMETHING. I DO NOT EVEN KNOW IF ERIC ACTUALLY HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ACCENT OR IF CHET IS JUST SPINNING IT, BUT WATCHING A HANKS KID CONFRONT A COMEDIAN IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVENTION IS THE DRAMA I NEED. OK I AM GOING TO GO BE QUIET NOW.

SO THE NEWS IS DOING THAT THING AGAIN WHERE WE ALL HAVE TO WATCH CHET HANKS CHASE DOWN ERIC ANDRE AT SOME FANCY EVENT CALLED COMPLEXCON. APPARENTLY CHET IS SUPER PRESSED BECAUSE HE SAYS ERIC DUMPED ON HIM IN THE MEDIA YEARS AGO, AND NOW CHET IS POSTING VIDEOS OF THE CONFRONTATION WHERE HE CLAIMS ERIC HAD FOUR SECURITY GUARDS AROUND HIM. CHET SAYS ERIC HAD NO CLUE WHO HE WAS AT FIRST, BUT THEN ALLEGEDLY STARTED COMPLAINING ABOUT CHET MOCKING CARIBBEAN CULTURE WITH THAT WILD JAMAICAN ACCENT HE USED TO DO. I MEAN, ERIC ANDRE IS OUT HERE BEING CALLED A PASSIONATE CULTURAL ACTIVIST BY A HANKS, WHICH IS JUST ABSURD. I HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS IS LEGIT BEEF OR JUST TWO FAMOUS GUYS DOING CONTENT, BUT IT IS HILARIOUS. ANYWAY I AM FINE, EVERYTHING IS FINE.

Chet Hanks confronted comedian Eric André at ComplexCon, recording the interaction and alleging that André criticized his past Jamaican accent performances while being protected by four security guards.
