Tom Brady made a surprise appearance during Netflix’s roast event for Kevin Hart on May 10 in Los Angeles, quickly becoming one of the biggest highlights of the night. The event took place at the Kia Forum during the Netflix Is A Joke festival. Brady entered the stage dressed in black and immediately started roasting Hart in front of the packed crowd. The former NFL quarterback returned the favor two years after Hart hosted “The Greatest Roast of All Time: The Roast of Tom Brady” in 2024. As soon as Brady walked onstage, he targeted Hart with jokes about the comedian spending too much time at the arena. “Have you even left The Forum?” Brady joked after entering the stage. He continued by teasing Hart about his height and then presented him with a tiny New York Knicks jersey. “That’s newborn size,” Brady joked. “It fits you.” The audience reacted loudly as Brady continued delivering rapid-fire jokes aimed at Hart’s career, movies, and celebrity status. Brady mocked the idea that Netflix followed his famous roast event with a roast centered on Hart. “I played in the NFL for 23 seasons, but I've never seen anyone drop the ball like this,” Brady joked. The seven-time Super Bowl champion also compared his football success to Hart’s movie career. “I won seven Super Bowls,” Brady said. “Kevin has made two ‘Ride Along’ movies.” Brady also joked that Hart was only the “third most famous person” in the Jumanji films. The former quarterback then turned his attention to the panel of celebrity guests participating in the roast. He joked about the lineup, which included comedian Shane Gillis, NBA player Draymond Green, comedian Chelsea Handler, and several other performers. Brady joked that he did not recognize some of the guests and made fun of the overall lineup. The retired NFL star also took a shot at football fans while discussing Hart’s support for the Philadelphia Eagles. Brady teased Hart by saying he only supports the Eagles when the team is successful. He then compared that behavior to fans of the Dallas Cowboys, drawing loud reactions from the crowd. One of the most talked-about moments came when Brady joked about Hart’s wife, Eniko Hart, who was sitting in the audience. Brady referenced jokes Hart had previously made about Brady’s family during the 2024 roast event. “Kevin you took a lot of shots at my family in the roast,” Brady said before jokingly greeting Eniko from the stage. Hart immediately reacted by shouting, “Cut it out!” as the crowd laughed. The exchange quickly became one of the most viral moments of the night on social media. Despite the sharp jokes, the event remained playful and comedic throughout the show. Roast specials are known for pushing boundaries with celebrity insults, personal jokes, and exaggerated humor. Brady appeared relaxed and confident during the appearance, showing the same competitive personality that defined his football career. The NFL legend closed his appearance with one final joke aimed at Hart before leaving the stage. “Payback’s a b---- and so are you Kevin Hart,” Brady joked while exiting. Fans online praised Brady’s confidence and timing, with many saying the former quarterback delivered one of the strongest performances of the event. The roast special added another major moment to Netflix’s growing lineup of celebrity comedy events. Brady’s appearance also continued his unexpected success in entertainment after retiring from professional football. Since leaving the NFL, Brady has remained active through broadcasting, public appearances, and media projects. His latest roast appearance showed that his competitive side still shines even outside sports. Meanwhile, Hart once again proved willing to be the center of harsh comedy, continuing the roast tradition that has become popular with audiences on streaming platforms.
