Nikki Glaser was taken by surprise during Tom Brady’s roast when jokes about Kim Kardashian made their way into the mix. The comedian appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to share her thoughts on the roast, which included sharp jabs at various celebrities, including Kim Kardashian. Despite the playful nature of the event, Nikki wasn’t expecting Kim to become the subject of jokes, especially not by Tom Brady himself.

During the roast, Tom Brady made a joke about Kim Kardashian that caught everyone off guard. “Kim was terrified to be here tonight, not because of this, but because her kids are home with their dad,” Tom quipped, leaving the audience laughing. Nikki explained that she initially thought Kim was off-limits due to her high profile and the fact that she already faces enough scrutiny in the public eye. “She’s not on stage, but then he had a joke about Kim Kardashian, and I didn’t even know we could really go there,” Nikki remarked, clearly surprised by the boundaries being pushed.

The roast featured a range of celebrities, including Kim and her ex-husband Kanye West. Despite the potentially uncomfortable nature of these jokes, the evening unfolded with the understanding that everyone—no matter their status—was fair game. However, after the live broadcast, Netflix made an interesting move by removing all of Kim Kardashian’s moments from the special, cutting her boos from the platform entirely. This decision left many wondering about the intricacies of the roast and its aftermath.

While Kim’s moments were edited out, there was another ongoing controversy stemming from jokes aimed at Tom Brady’s personal life. A joke about his ex-wife, Giselle Bündchen, stirred some upset feelings. The roast joked, “The only thing dumber than you saying yes to this roast was when you said, ‘Hey babe, you should try jiu-jitsu.’” Another quip suggested that Tom had so many rings he could melt them down to forge a sword in a quest to win Giselle back.

Sources revealed that Giselle found some of the jokes distasteful and disrespectful. A close insider shared, “Giselle has a grandiose sense of self-worth, and as a mother, she is protective of herself and her children.” While the roast may have gone too far for some, it was a part of the event’s purpose to push boundaries in the name of comedy.

Despite the controversies, the roast was a significant event for Tom Brady, who was prepared for jabs about his personal life. An insider shared that Tom knew the jokes about his relationships and past would be coming, but he didn’t expect the jiu-jitsu comments to make an appearance. The jokes about his personal life, though, weren’t a huge surprise.

In the aftermath, Tom’s ex-wife Giselle wasn’t the only one facing backlash from the roast. An insider shared that Tom himself had no idea what specific jokes would be aimed at him, but he understood the nature of the event and expected the personal digs. However, it’s clear that the roast highlighted some sensitive topics for many, sparking discussions about the fine line between humor and disrespect.
