Comedian Nikki Glaser has ripped one of the performers from Tom Brady’s roast on Netflix, accusing him of failing to prepare and treating the event like it was beneath him.
Glaser is considered to have had the best bit at the roast, while most of the other performers killed it. Actor Ben Affleck wasn’t among those who did, leaving most people wondering what he hoped to achieve with his rant about football fans on social media.
Former ESPN personality Katie Nolan suggested that the actor may have been on drugs at the time.
“I couldn’t figure out what he was talking about. Twitter critics or something? It was awkward,” former NFL quarterback Drew Bledsoe, who was one of the roasters, said on the ‘Games With Names’ podcast.
Glaser addressed the performance on ‘KFC Radio’ over the weekend and didn’t have much good to say.
“I was watching from the side and I haven’t watched it again back, like how it looked, because I don’t really, I don’t like to watch people bomb,” she remarked.
“I think even if I heard about it I’d be like, ‘I don’t need to see that.’”
“I know what happened,” she continued. “He didn’t prepare. He’s someone that’s famous enough that thinks this is probably beneath them to do this and so I’m just going to do a favor. It’s not going to be that big of a deal.
“I’ve had the same kind of things like this and then you do it and you’re like, ‘Oh, this is way bigger than I thought. I was kind of phoning it in.’
“He like had a pitch to the writers probably about like, ‘Maybe I do an angle of like I’m mad about tweets because he’s probably … he has a bone to pick.
“It wasn’t, and he locked into a premise that he had to do the whole thing. Everyone else has joke, joke, joke, so if your joke bombs you’re on to the next one. That’s what he should have done.”
Nikki Glaser Says Ben Affleck’s Piece Could Have Easily Been Fixed
Nikki Glaser added that there were enough jokes that weren’t used, which could have filled up Ben’s entire set. She deduced that the writers couldn’t get him on the phone enough to work something out, or he just chose a tough angle and had to stick it out.
“We gave the benefit of the doubt because he’s Ben Affleck,” she said.
Glaser has also admitted that her inclusion in the roast has done wonders for her career, as her phone was going crazy after her set.
It was all in good timing, too, as a few days later, she launched a special called ‘Someday You’ll Die’ on Max.
