roasts who've made the roast EES laugh cringe or cry depending on the nerve they hit everybody in Hollywood is talking about it and they all saying the same thing I think that [ __ ] gave me herpes we'll be judging the comedian's on their entire body of roast work rather than any specific set such phenomenal range [Music] you're like the Daniel day-lewis of only doing one thing number 10 Anthony Jeselnik you've convinced more women to have abortions than the prenatal tests for Down syndrome Jeselnik is the head of a new generation of Roasters the stand-up comic started as a behind-the-scenes writer for the David Hasselhoff roast but producers liked his style and he was offered a performing role at the following event the only difference between you and Michael Douglas from the movie Wall Street said no one's gonna be sad when you get cancer the 2011 roast of Donald Trump springboarded his comedy career as his dark foe Psychopaths Patrick Bateman style mixed with masterful joke writing may Jeselnik an instant comedy celebrity making fun of Larry King for being old is like making fun of Marlee Matlin for being deaf it's fun he made mincemeat of his fellow Roasters and of course the Donald himself and would apply the same technique to later roasts of Charlie Sheen and Roseanne Barr before moving into different comedic ventures last year my mom should have been celebrating her 60th birthday but because of drugs alcohol and other terrible decisions we all forgot number 9 Nick DiPaolo Adam Carolla you know Adam is half Hispanic which means not only is his last name Corolla he was probably conceived in one meanness personified is Nick DiPaolo a no-holds-barred take-no-prisoners performer whose roasts sets our leagues above the competition operation Dumbo drop let me ask you what at what point when you're reading the script did you say I have to do this can film huh the veteran comedian first gained national notice as a bald butcher on the 2003 roast of Denis Leary where he eviscerated the stage and the grumpy leery so well that he became a roast regular this is ironic I finally meet the girl of my dreams and I'm [ __ ] on you instead of the other way DiPaolo made additional appearances at the Comedy Central roasts of Jeff Foxworthy Pamela Anderson and Larry the Cable Guy and brought the house down every time I saw Larry backstage of the long face sniffing his fingers I said what's the matter goes I miss my family his lesser-known but perhaps most revered appearance was at the Howard Stern roast of Artie Lange where he blurred the line between horrifying and horrifyingly hilarious you couldn't be more white trash if you are McDonald's bagged in a dumpster Philip Courtney loves tampons number eight Amy Schumer when someone even mentions whose line is it anyway Carrie Fisher yells out mine after appearing on NBC's Last Comic Standing several years before Amy Schumer got her big break with the 2011 Roast of Charlie Sheen but there's no denying how famous you are I mean it was international news when you ruined the lives of those two girls living with you you know your daughters six million people tuned in to see the largely unknown comedian trounced the competition like few others could I can see a girl hooking up with you Jeff I mean I would sit on your face just so I wouldn't have to look at it Schumer was both hilarious and ruthless and her dissection of Sheen and company black courted controversy with a joke aimed at steve-o about his jackass co-star Ryan Dungey n recent death sorry for the loss of your friend Ryan Dunne I know you must have been thinking it could have been me and I know we were all thinking Lauren wasn't it there's no doubt that this was the set that propelled her career and earned her respect as a roaster Roseanne you have the voice of a parakeet and the face of a much fatter parakeet you know you're unattractive when Sara Gilbert is the eye candy on set Schumer later appeared on the Roast of Roseanne Barr the following year serving another cocktail of razor-sharp quips before ascending to a higher level of show business he was a drunk he once apologized to me for missing a volleyball game that he was at number seven Gilbert Gottfried walks into a bar every morning and any station till it closes Gilbert Godfried is perhaps best known for his obnoxious voice but comedy fans know him as a rare fearless genius if only the Simpsons heard white [ __ ] in front of Seth MacFarlane he could learn to do it too Gottfried is also a legend in roasts dating back to the 2001 Friars Club roast of Hugh Hefner where he made an infamous joke about the very recent 9/11 terror attacks winding a comedic yarn as no other performer could Gilbert weaves outlandish stories into his act along with sharp one-liners to create a roasts performance unlike most money can't buy happiness but it can buy the best Eastern European [ __ ] New York City acts to wall park Godfried was embraced by Comedy Central for their modern roasts and luckily he's never wavered from his offbeat and off-color style of humor as of 2016 he's performed at seven of their roasts allowing comedy fans to bask in his offensive glow they should call him number six Norma Donald did you know instead of an umbilical cord John was born with a bungee cord Norma Donald made just one roast appearance but it's the most conceptually hilarious set we've ever seen greg Giraldo is here he has the grace of a swan the wisdom an owl and the eye of an eagle ladies and gentlemen this man is for the birds in direct response to a producer telling him to be shocking norm decided to borrow material from a 1950s retirement party book so that meant egregiously corny and outdated jokes that countered the brutal Comedy Central Roast formula hey she may be a vegetarian but she's still full of baloney in my book I what followed was a performance that confused stunned and shook the audience I heard you have hair on your chest Bob and well let me tell you something that isn't your only resemblance to rin-tin-tin as the comic delivered benign jokes with feigned sincerity effectively roasting the concept of a roast sure the audience was disoriented but the rest of the panel was doubled over laughing as were those viewers who were in the know about norms abstract and provocative nature no single roast set is more infamous or admired he's a good guy he's never bought Christmas seals he told me he wouldn't know what to feed them number five Lisa Lampanelli you are the ultimate proof that money can buy good-looking [ __ ] try as they might no one can go shot-for-shot with Lisa Lampanelli the queen of mean became famous solely from her roast performances which started back in 2002 at the Friars Club roast of Chevy Chase he's tall I love tall guys cuz I dated little guys in fact there might be one still inside me lampanelli's no boundaries sharp wit proved to be a perfect fit and she saddled up for 10 years of near annual roast appearances this dais stinks usually I feel bad that guys don't want to pork me tonight I feel lucky her shocking material in bold delivery had a profound effect on her contemporaries who had never seen a woman hold her own so well in a male-dominated game what are you laughing at Foxworthy which is 70s porn mustache Lampanelli would do more than hold her own as she became the prized attraction at the Comedy Central roasts and a fearless master of a brutal craft she has dated Scott Baio the singer from poison and the drummer from Motley Crue her life story should be a show on vh1 called ice the 80s number four Richard Pryor sitting next to him is a fat ugly person Richard Pryor is often considered the greatest stand-up comedian in history and with his profane yet profound humor it's no surprise he'd be a perfect roaster next to him is a woman whose past white for years used to be a hole in Detroit Pryor was a roast virgin when the short-lived Richard Pryor show decided to hold a roast he's raised a lot of money for young students in fact he's paid half the girls at the local high school to keep their mouths shut he sat hunched and quiet as many of showbusiness top stars ridiculed and insulted him including Paul Mooney and Robin Williams all he wants is a loose director a tight script in a warm place to rehearse but when Pryor was given his chance to respond he torched the room the god of obscene comedy left the other Roasters in ruins and the audience in comedic heaven as you notice he's trying out for a Wolf Man next week is holid hair on his hands and it's obvious he jacks off funny because number three don rickles a great politician of all time he laughs at anything my brother died [Applause] long before Comedy Central took over the Dean Martin celebrity roasts were the apex of the medium hosted by the famous crooner the roasts were ratings blockbusters and the king of these events was the legendary ballbuster Don Rickles it can be argued that Rickles is responsible for the mean nature of today's roasts as no one was more brutal in the comparatively wholesome 60s and 70s entertainment industry no topic or person was off limits as Rickles made fun of every facet of show business and people laughed harder than biologically possible the truth I exaggerate I make fun of blacks whites Jew is attack well Jews based on the sheer audience of the Dean Martin roasts it's likely that Don will stand as the most popular roaster in history on your face and fly over the beach draft number two greg Giraldo you look like King Lear got trapped in a forest fire undeniably one of the most hilarious Roasters of all time greg Giraldo is an icon of the medium a Harvard Law School graduate Geraldo passed up a life of prestige for a life of chicken wings and drunks on the comedy club circuit good to see at least I've never seen a circus bear in a pantsuit before like Lampanelli he began his televised roast career in 2002 at the Chevy Chase gala impressing the crowd with his remarkable wit and killer lines and he was soon commissioned for other roasts a comedy icon and living proof that you could actually snort the funniness right out of yourself from 2005 until his death in 2010 Geraldo performed at every Comedy Central Roast a total of eight appearances the some of which accounts for what we can only assume is the highest volume of roast laughs speaking of anal warts good to see Courtney Love here need proof just check out the Larry the Cable Guy Flavor Flav or Hasselhoff roasts and doubt no more your liver is so shriveled black and dead if you put your ear to your side you can hear it go what you talk about with us before we unveil our number one pick here are some honorable mentions seems like only yesterday you were discovered on YouTube time flies when you're a piece of [ __ ] you know most guys know the girlfriend's names at least you know hey blondie is not his cute nickname for you Jonah actually gained 50 pounds for his role in the new Martin Scorsese film because the producers wanted the character to be a Jonah Hill type posting 20 G's is not as easy as shooting fish in a barrel it's as easy as looking at spandex around your crotch you have less sperm in your balls than pam has in her mouth right now [Applause] number one Jeff Ross found Trump is such an egomaniac he makes Hitler seem like he wasn't completely sure how he felt about Jewish people with roasting as his specialty it's fitting that he's been called the meanest man in comedy starting as a fresh-faced 33 year old at the Friars Club roast of Drew Carey Ross's style was tailor-made for the medium as he stunned everyone with a perfect inaugural set this would launch a career that spanned dozens of roasts from the Friars Club to Comedy Central if there's a roast Ross will be there come on man Charlie if you're winning then this must not be a child custody hearing only time your kids get the seal is in reruns he even inspired a Club hosted roast battle circuit that's making waves in the industry and launching the careers of young comedians now Comedy Central has taken that concept to the small screen and Ross is the obvious architect well he's called the roastmaster general for a reason Mike the ironic thing is after all the faces you bashed in the one you [ __ ] up the most is your own do you agree with our
