Kim Kardashian found herself in a tough spot during Netflix’s special event, “The Greatest Roast Of All Time: Tom Brady,” when her attempt to take the stage was met with a less-than-warm reception. The 43-year-old reality star, known for her role in “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” initially received applause as she walked on stage, but the mood quickly shifted as the crowd turned to booing.
As she prepared to begin her roast of Tom Brady, the noise from the crowd grew so loud that it drowned out her words. Kardashian responded to the overwhelming boos with a light-hearted “All right, all right, all right,” trying to keep the atmosphere upbeat despite the unexpected response.
Things got so intense that comedian Kevin Hart, the MC for the event, was overheard off camera expressing his surprise with a quick “Whoa, whoa.” Kardashian then called Keven over who quelled the crowd.

Kardashian joked about the rumors linking her romantically to Tom Brady, quipping, “I know there were some rumors that we were [dating], and I’d never say if we did or not. I’d just release a tape.” She continued with a playful jab at Brady’s appearance, comparing him to her stepdad, Caitlyn Jenner, due to his “high cheekbones” and “silky hair.”
She also referenced her late father, Robert Kardashian, who famously was part of O.J. Simpson’s defense team, saying, “Honestly, it’s hard for me to watch people roast you. But I think enough of my family members have helped defend former football players.”
Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe also took a moment during to direct a joke at Kardashian, commenting on her high-profile relationships by saying, “She’s [Kardashian] had a lot of Black men celebrating her end-zone,” and adding, “Kim, word of advice, close your legs. You have more public beef than Kendrick [Lamar] and Drake.”
When it was Tom Brady’s turn to speak, he too didn’t hold back, making a reference to Kardashian’s ex-husband Kanye West and their four children, saying, “Thank you so much for being here. I know Kim was terrified to be here tonight. Not because of this, but because her kids are home with their dad.”
It will probably be a long time before Kim again attends a comedy event. When she was roasted, the look on her face said it all.
