All is right with the world … when a convicted rapist is trending as a lovable buffoon?
Bravo had Mike Tyson on as a guest on “Watch What Happens Live” last night. It turns out that the ear-eater and rapist is a huge fan of “Real Housewives of New Jersey.”
Had an awesome time on #WWHL. @BravoANdy, the games made my night. Thanks for the laughs!

He’s just a giggle machine! Or something.
I'm serious though, America is the ONLY place you can be broke AND still live in a mansion.

Last night on the show, Mike Tyson compared himself to RHONJ’s The Giudices; bankruptcy is awesome and hilarious, you see. You can still live in a mansion and buy tons of stuff, even while stiffing your creditors!
Mike Tyson tweeted out photos from his reprehensible swoon-fest all night.

Proving once again that @BravoAndy is a TV magician, I no longer think Mike Tyson is just a wife-beating rapist. He's a charming delight!
— Amanda Guinzburg (@Guinz) July 9, 2012
Um. Delight is the wrong word. Perhaps she meant “disgust.”
Other Twitter users and Bravo fans weren’t so enamored of the convicted rapist.
Mike Tyson the rapist?!? RT @WubsNet: Mike Tyson and @melissagorga were awesome on WWHL with @BravoAndy SO fun xxoo

@BravoAndy @melissagorga Enjoy the CONVICTED rapist interview. Tyson has NO business on @Bravotv & lighthearted #WWHL. Ask Chris Brown next?
— Maren (@Maren10) July 9, 2012

why do we have to hate Chris Brown, but when Mike Tyson (wife beater/convicted rapist) comes around, we just have a lighthearted funfest?
— Ashley (@ashleymorales) July 9, 2012
So interesting that Mike Tyson, a CONVICTED RAPIST, has become accepted as a comedic figure
— Christian (@LivChristianLiv) July 9, 2012
Indeed. Not a smart move, Bravo and “Watch What Happens Live.” Nice moral bankruptcy you have there. Y’all are always up-in-arms about “bullying.” But raping is A-Okay?
Maybe it is time to give yourselves your coveted “Jackhole of the Week” award.
Update: Wow, Caroline. Really?
Hey @bravoandy tell mike Tyson my boys love him and we want him to come over for Sunday dinner!
— Caroline Manzo (@CarolineManzo) July 9, 2012
He’s a rapist.
