Ever had a drunk uncle, or cousin, show up to your family’s function and cut up? Well, just envision actor, Cuba Gooding Jr., in their place and you pretty much get the gist of this story. Cuba attended the Footwear News Award Show on Tuesday and proved that he’s a helluva actor and also a helluva drinker. **SCROLL DOWN FOR VIDEO**
That isn’t a diss to Cuba at all though, because he doesn’t try to hide that fact. In fact, he was mighty proud of it at the award show and even took great advantage of their open bar. So much so, that by the time he stepped up on the stage to present an award, he was full of that ‘juice’ and in rare form!
In front of the audience, which included many celebs, such as Rihanna, Spike Lee, and others, Cuba was clearly the life of the party, much like the drunk uncle who cracks everybody up on Thanksgiving and loudly ribs your cousins, aunts, and everyone else. Cuba cracked on Spike Lee, the food served at the show, and it’s ‘cheap’ budget. His presentation went far longer than his allotted time, while the crowd was shocked and LOL’ing simultaneously.
Here’s part of what Cuba belted out on stage:
‘I think we all owe a debt of gratitude for this amazing meal they put together tonight. Because nothing says ‘I love you’ like f**king sugar. F***king boxed lunch. …I’m drunk now muthaf***ers, so deal with it. I thought the BET Awards were cheap….Did they want me to ‘show them the money,’ what the f**k?’

CUBA GOODING’S GRIP ON RIHANNA WAS LOCKED
One source, who attended the event, told DailyMail Cuba was cuttin’ up the whole night:
“He was hitting up the bar as soon as he did the red carpet and, with some liquid courage under his belt, made a beeline for Rihanna.”
That’s right, Cuba Gooding Jr. grabbed Rihanna and didn’t want to let go, although poor Ri-Ri did eventually managed to politely pull her arm back into her control, LOL…
Dang Cuba! That hangover the next morning must have been on level 10!
