It was hilarious! Only people who weren't funny were Bridgette Nielson and Flav himself

The Roast was all good. The weak link was Jimmie Kimmel's wack ass jokes. Otherwise, it's straight laugh fest for those who aren't uptight with this polictiallly correct bullshit.

show was funny

almost better than the William Shatner roast

loved the jokes about Katt Williams, esp. the one that said black people love him but white people have no idea who he is

DAMN

I just logged in to write a post about this.
I'm pretty certain it was all scripted except for the real comedian's bits.

Scripted comment that's comedy by itself. There's no way in hell you can script bonefide pimp2s like Snoop & Ice T. The game can be told but not sold.

SORRY, WHEN I SAY SCRIPTED

I actually mean it was written for them.

Again, as I stated before, there's no way in hell that bonefide pimps like Snoop & Ice can be scripted while in their own element. Listen and learn, the game can be told but not sold.

What was Bridgette doing up there? She totally bombed.

They should've sat her down in the audience & brought up Sheryl Underwood.

I thought Jimmy Kimmel went a lil overboard with the Chris Benoit and James Brown mention.

The comedians went harder on EACH OTHER than on Flav! Carrot Top got it the WORST!

A Roast has no rules and is free for all. Whoever dishes it better be able to take it.

I know I'm late. I only found this thread because I was reading DirtyChris' profile.wink

This roast was crazy!! Was it me, or did it seem like no one wanted to talk shit about Snoop but Flav? Other than saying he smoked lots of weed.blunt cool

And I agree...the two comments that made me more than uncomfortable was the Chris Benoit comment. Also when Flav said Snoop got away with two murders. eek lol

The comments about his complexion were tasteless and unnecessary. As a fan of PE I was actually disgusted by most of the comments about how dark he is. There are so many other things that they could have made fun of....Flav sold his soul.

I thought Lisa Lampanelli was the funniest. She can really outmean them all. The one that was way harsh was when one of them said that Flav looks like HOW Magic Johnson should look. I was like eek

I'd forgotten about that one. I agree. That was just wrong. Also agree about the "dark" comments. disbelief

hang on man,

have you ever played the dozens?, we've all said shit and thats what roasts are about playin' the fuckin dozens,as a fan of PE and used to live on Strong Island and know these cats on a personal level, you cannot sit there and talk about how this shit is a minstrel show and shit like that.

it was about fuckin around and tellin' jokes and playin the dozens regardless about them sayin how black he was n shit.. so fuckin what.i get called "Hi Yella" do i care no... should you?... no.. get over it.

Yeah, I played the dozens & "dark skin" jokes were OFF LIMITS. I happen to know for a fact that Griff is disgusted by Flav's behavior. Roasts are also traditionally done by FRIENDS of the roastee...The Comedy Central roast is a brand and having a bunch of white guys make jokes about his complexion was unnacceptable...even more shameful to hear other Black people say negative things about "how dark" someone is. Self-hatred ain't funny.That's some slave-shit (like the origin of the dozens).

i was hysterically laughing my ass off cause it was done in fun. nobody got shot afterwards just like how it was done doing the dozens back in the day. i have 2 agree that u'r taking it 2 seriously about the dark complexion jokes. if that's the case, then what do u have 2 say about some of the material Robin Harris was saying? come on man, lighting up.

as 4 griff being mad at flavor, what else is new? did u know it was chuck that suggested 2 flav 2 move 2 cali and start a new venture 4 himself? so does griff have beef with chuck over that? and in the end ..does it matter?

now back 2 the roast .."kat williams since when did they make pimp clothes at baby gap?!!!" falloff
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

Griff the least relevant member of PE? You really don't have a clue man. I was raised to be proud of myself and to never make "blackness" or "darkness" be a negative thing. Thank God my parents instilled that in me. NOBODY will disrespect my heritage or complexion. Flav is a disappointment. That slave minded-shit is pathetic. Katt, Ice T, Snoop, and any other wannabe pimp needs to have their asses whupped.
