Brady was the butt of many jokes, but there was a limit.
Nikki Glaser has garnered some rave reviews for her performance on Netflix’s “The Roast of Tom Brady.” And while Glaser and all the other acts went all in on poking fun at the seven-time Super Bowl winner, she says there was one topic that was off-limits.
“We all collectively just decided not to involve his kids too much in anything because they didn’t ask for that, so any kind of reference to anything with that we left off the table,” Glaser told Howard Stern.
“So I couldn’t say, ‘Tom, hopefully we make out at the after-party. You can pretend I’m your son.’ You know, the reference to him kissing his son. My dad kissed me on the lips as a kid and throughout my adulthood, so I really related to that and never judged it any way, other than I thought it was a cute moment that we all took too seriously.”
Brady is father to Jack, 16, with Bridget Moynahan. He and ex-wife Gisele Bündchen are also parents of Benjamin, 14, and Vivian, 11.
Glaser reiterated that everyone felt it wasn’t right to target his children.
“We all just agreed, let’s not throw the kids under the bus, even though I just did here,” she said.
Glaser also said there were “so many” jokes that didn’t make the cut, noting most were left out due to time, they weren’t as funny as others or they focused on subjects that other comedians had mentioned. She also said some of the jokes were “softer.”
She then shared some of the jokes that she didn’t tell during the roast.
“Thank you all for being here tonight and taking some time away from cheating on your wives. It’s not their fault. It’s their wives’ fault for aging naturally,” she said.“I’d like to say that the proceeds from tonight’s show — it’s really cool tonight. All the proceeds are going towards CTE research and the NFL’s coordinated effort to cover it up. People don’t know, but it costs millions to murder those doctors who know the truth,” she said, alluding to the head injuries among players that have increased over the years.“Tom, seriously, though, I love your work — you’ve done on your face,” she said, hinting at possible plastic surgery. “Seriously, though, slow down. What’s happening with your cheeks? You look like a Ken doll that was microwaved. You love deflating things. Stop.”Stern also pointed out that Glaser’s crypto joke earned a standing ovation.“Tom also lost $30 million in crypto. Tom, how did you fall for that? I mean, even Gronk was like, ‘Me know that not real money,’” she joked, referencing Brady’s former teammate Rob Gronkowski.
Glaser is an accomplished comedian who said this show was unique, noting it was the biggest crowd she ever performed for. And even though she tested the material beforehand, she didn’t know how it would be received until the show itself.
“You can’t really get a read from the crowd of what it’s going to be like when they’re sitting next to you, so it’s a high-risk situation and I was terrified going into it,” she said.
Comedian who roasted Tom Brady ‘didn’t know we could go there’ with Kim Kardashian joke
Comedian Nikki Glaser was taken aback by Tom Brady’s dig at Kim Kardashian during his recent Netflix roast, admitting she was shocked by the extent of the NFL legend’s joke.
The surprise guest at the event, Kardashian, faced a hostile reception from the audience, before giving as good as she got with some jibes aimed at Brady. In reaction to her digs, Brady hit back with a playful jab that involved Kanye West and her children.
Brady quipped: “Kim Kardashian, thank you so much for being here. I know Kim was terrified to be here tonight-not because of this [roast], but because her kids are at home with their dad…”
Glaser, during her guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday, confessed she wouldn’t have dared to joke about Kardashian’s family. She revealed: “One of the moments where I went, ‘Oh, we can go there!’ He did a joke about Kim Kardashian, who was there, who I thought was kind of off limits, right?
“She’s here. She takes enough of a beating. She’s not on the stage, but then he had a joke about, ‘Are you more scared about the jokes or the fact that your kids are with Kanye [West] right now? ‘ A great joke. And I was like, ‘I didn’t even know we could really go there’.”
Kardashian’s relationship with the rapper, with whom she shares four children and endured a well-documented public fallout post-divorce in 2021, has been the subject of much
The celebrity couple were granted joint legal custody of their four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm, following their split in 2022, although Kanye has continuously grumbled about not getting enough time with the kids.
The moment Brady dropped his witticism, the lens shifted to Kardashian, who shook her head in disbelief as murmurs swirled around the crowd and the NFL icon tried to shrug it off with a laugh.
Kim wasn’t the sole high-profile woman left disgruntled by the gags – Gisele Bundchen, Brady’s ex-wife, was reportedly livid. An insider relayed to Entertainment Tonight: “Gisele was upset and hurt by some of the jokes about her, her relationship with [boyfriend] Joaquim [Valente], and her marriage to Tom during his roast.”
