From ETOnLine:
Clint Eastwood might just want to stay off stage for… well, ever.
After staying out of the spotlight since that time he talked to an empty chair like a crazy person at the 2012 Republican National Convention, the four-time Oscar-winning actor/director stirred controversy yet again on Saturday.
This time, the 85-year-old American Sniper director ruffled feathers when he made a joke at the expense of Caitlyn Jenner while appearing onstage at Spike TV's 2015 Guys' Choice awards.
According to USA Today, the joke -- which Spike TV has said they will cut when the awards show airs -- was made when Eastwood was introducing San Andreas star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
According to reports, Eastwood introduced Johnson by comparing him to other famous athletes, such as ""Jim Brown and Caitlyn Somebody..."
Spike TV Senior Vice President of Communications David Schwartz told USA Today that the network will remove Eastwood's comment in the version of the show that will air on June 18.
