Tracey Ullman apologises for using blackface and impersonating Asian characters in past skits: 'I used to get a high from becoming other people'
The actress, 64, has amassed a fortune in the States specialising in sketch shows, including her Tracey Takes On series which aired from 1996 to 1999.
She was responding to Louis stating 'these things are constantly being revisited and rethought and tastes change and it's very easy to look back and poke holes, whether it's wise after the event or to apply cultural standards that perhaps are of now'. Tracey made her comedy breakthrough in the early 1980s in Britain, including alongside Lenny Henry and David Copperfield in BBC sketch series Three of a Kind. In an interview the previous year with Vulture she said she 'never got any complaints' for doing blackface and complained that in the modern era 'everyone's so damn sensitive' but added at the time: 'It wouldn't stop me.'
