Marlon Wayans on the 'Violent' Love Affair with White Chicks Fans

Marlon Wayans, a name synonymous with side-splitting comedy, has always understood the power of laughter. Yet, even he expresses a humorous bewilderment at the sheer, unyielding, and occasionally “violent” adoration fans harbor for his 2004 comedy classic, 'White Chicks'. What started as a daring cinematic endeavor featuring Wayans and his brother Shawn transforming into affluent white socialite heiresses has, against all odds, cemented itself as an enduring cult phenomenon, inspiring a level of fan intensity that consistently surprises its creators.

“People get very violent about 'White Chicks',” Wayans recently quipped, detailing the fervent, almost aggressive enthusiasm he encounters.

He paints a vivid picture of fans who, upon spotting him, might “tackle you, they’ll choke you, they’ll be like, 'Do the voice! Do the voice!'.
