Kevin Hart subjected himself to one of comedy’s most hallowed and excruciating traditions last night, the roast. The stand-up and movie star was inundated with jokes of all kinds — though mostly about his stature — at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles on Sunday, with the special now available on Netflix. But it was arguably Pete Davidson who stole the show with one of the night’s most vicious jokes, technically directed at controversial comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, but also Charlie Kirk and Kanye West.
Davidson leaned into Hinchcliffe, who hosts the popular Kill Tony stand-up show and enjoyed a brief surge of notoriety after he made offensive jokes about Puerto Rico and Puerto Ricans at a Donald Trump rally weeks before the 2024 election. Davidson cracked that Hinchcliffe looked like “both a child molester and the doll they gave the child to show where he touched them,” then even more brutally joked, “Tony reminds me of Charlie Kirk, in that he’s definitely been on camera letting a guy unload in his throat.”
Davidson seemed happy to welcome the nervy reaction from the crowd, quipping, “Oh, you don’t know me?” He then continued, “Kill Tony. Please, someone fucking kill, Tony.”
The former SNL star then delivered his most brutal line, “Tony, nothing you say tonight will hurt my feelings. I was in a beef with Kanye, so I’ve taken shots from better gay Nazis.” (West infamously went after Davidson a few years ago, back when the comedian was dating West’s ex-wife, Kim Kardashian.)
Pete Davidson made a Charlie Kirk joke toward Tony Hinchcliffe and calls Ye a ‘gay Nazi’ during Kevin Hart’s roast.

As for the night’s primary target, Hart was skewered relentlessly over the course of the night. Some of the finest examples included…
Lizzo: “Kevin and I are both mocked for our size, and we share that pain. But, I can lose weight, you can’t get taller!”
The Rock: “I love you, yes, I do. Just to prove it, just last week, I got a Kevin Hart tattoo on my cock. Yeah, life-size too.”

Katt Williams: “Just because Kevin went to Diddy parties does not mean he did something wrong. The fact that he gets all quiet when you bring it up, that means he did something wrong.”
But one of the night’s biggest surprises was Tom Brady, the subject of the last Netflix roast in 2024, which Hart hosted. Brady unexpectedly took the stage and clearly relished the chance to take some revenge.
“Have you even left the Forum, or have you just been here screaming into that mic the last two years waiting for daddy to come home?” Brady cracked. “Well, unlike your real dad, I actually showed up.”

Brady then gifted Hart and a “newborn-sized” jersey of Knicks star Jalen Brunson, this just hours after the Knicks finished sweeping Hart’s Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA playoffs. And the ex-quarterback even squeezed in a joke about Hart cheating on his then-pregnant wife in Las Vegas (something Hart has admitted to).
“This won’t take long, because, as you guys know, I’m a busy man,” Brady said. “But I do have a few words for you before I return to my affairs in Las Vegas. Oh, wait, I’m talking about affairs in Las Vegas. Was that off? Not supposed to talk about affairs in Vegas? I think I broke another rule. Fuck it. I talked about it.”
