Were Indian Americans devastated that Zaila Avant-garde put an end to Indian American supremacy at the Scripps National Spelling Bee championship? At least Indian American comedian Hari Kondabolu was.
On July 9, the host of Netflixâs âWarn Your Relativesâ tweeted a video to claim that he was âdevastatedâ at the outcome of this yearâs contest.
âWe Lost The #Spelling Bee. I am an Indian American and I am devastated,â he captioned a one-minute-59-second video on Twitter.
âI am trying not to get emotionalâ¦umâ¦as I film this,â Kondabolu says. âThe streak is over. 12 years of Indian American champions and the streak is over.â
