Steve Harvey seemingly hasn’t forgiven or forgotten about Katt Williams insulting him on Club Shay Shay.

Harvey was a speaker at Atlanta’s Invest Fest over the weekend, where he aired out some grievances regarding his “haters”—and his comments appeared to be aimed at Williams.

“You’ll never have a hater that’s doing better than you, always know that,” Harvey told the audience. “Don’t get off the wall to address some petty-ass boy who ain’t got shit going for himself, stop your climb on up the wall so you can come down here and talk to his little punk ass.”

Steve Harvey sending subliminals regarding Katt Williams, ” I’ll knock your short ass out! I’ll shoot yo’ perm straight out yo’ head!” 🙄

“Don’t do that, man! I stay away from it,” he continued. “Do I want to [confront them]? Yes, because I’m a human being. And I’m hood. I used to be a fighter, and I still got hands. They slow, but if you get up on me real close, I can still knock yo’ monkey ass out.

“I just don’t have the quickness I had, but I can still turn my hip and shift that weight, and I’d knock yo’ short ass out,” he said. “I’d shoot yo’ perm straight out yo’ head.”

Back in January, Williams sat down with Shannon Sharpe for a bombshell interview, commenting on comedians and people in entertainment, including Harvey. Williams suggested that the Family Feud host plagiarized Mark Curry’s role as Mark Cooper from Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper for The Steve Harvey Show.

“The same Steve that went to go watch Mark Curry do his whole sitcom and then stole everything Mark Curry had. … Now Steve got a sitcom where he’s the principal and he wears a suit.”

He added, “You couldn’t be a movie star … There are 30,000 new scripts in Hollywood every year. Not one of them asked for a country bumpkin Black dude that can’t talk good … and look like Mr. Potato Head. There ain’t none. You have to have range.”
