Andy Dick obviously hasn't been paying attention to the backlash against Michael Richards. According to TMZ.com, the comedian reportedly got onstage on Dec. 2 at L.A.'s Improv comedy club and began joking with comedian Ian Bagg.

Dick continued to perform at coffee houses and open-mike nights when Ben Stiller (whom he met in Chicago) tapped him to appear in the short film Elvis Stories (1989).

In a court deal to wipe away the charges, Dick went into rehab, and he has claimed to be clean and sober since, with his career seemingly back on track.

In February 2007, he was booted from the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live after groping Ivanka Trump.
