Kim Kardashian is opening up about her experience on Netflix’s The Roast of Tom Brady, which made her swear off doing anymore roasts for good.
The 44-year-old reality star was part of a star-studded lineup that included Kevin Hart, Nikki Glaser, Bert Kreischer and roast legend Jeff Ross in the May 2024 roast.
When she took her turn on the dais though, she was booed by the crowd, which started rumors that it was fueled by her so-called feud with Taylor Swift.
Glaser insisted the boos were started by a, ‘wild guy who’s a comedian’ with a ‘reputation for just, like, starting s**t.’
Regardless, Kardashian was clearly turned off of the whole scene, revealing on this week’s new episode of Hulu’s The Kardashians that she’ll never do a roast again.
She also debunked rumors that she personally asked Netflix to remove all of the boos from the roast.

Kim revealed that she did the roast in the midst of her preparations for the Met Gala, revealing she flew back to L.A. from her New York fitting to do the roast, then fly right back to New York to finish her preparations for the Met happening that next day.
Kim began the segment by revealing that she had ‘no idea’ that it was a sold out event, adding she thought it was, ‘a private taping.’
‘My thoughts on the roast is I would never do a roast again. It’s not good for the soul. I could have never imagined that I would be booed,’ Kim admitted.
She added, ‘You can’t f***ing win, so it’s like, oh, football fans, oh, sports fans, they f***ing hate the Kardashians.’
‘I thought I was going to get up and give a toast and leave, that was the whole plan. Then I was like, well I can’t leave, because then I’ll look like a poor sport that I couldn’t handle anything, and I’m like, “When’s it over? I have a flight,”‘ Kim said.
A producer added that there was a ‘narrative’ that she went to Netflix and asked them to remove all the booing, to which Kim responded, ‘No. I could care less. Let me live my life. It happened. I don’t erase what happened.’
She added, ‘Listen, I’m the best sport, like I can handle it, but it just wasn’t new. All they do is call the girls whores. It was just the same thing. But I thought Nikki Glaser killed it, I really did.’
Kim added, ‘There were so many funny moments, I’m not going to sit here and literally be the victim of like… it wasn’t about me. It was fun to be a part of it, and I did it and I never have to do it again.’

They also showed Kim leaving her hotel for the Met Gala, as numerous fans asked if she was feeling OK after the roast just a day earlier.
After the annual bash, Kim said that Usher came up to her and told her, ‘I felt so bad for you on that roast.’
She added in confession, ‘At the Met, people would come up to me and be like, “Are you OK?” And I’m like, “I’m fine!”‘
Kim added in the van that, ‘It’s just like the easiest joke, they would’ve said it about anyone. And then I was just like, why would I put myself in these situations to feel s****y?’
She also referenced an interview given by one of the other roasters, comedian Andrew Schulz, who called Kim ‘so robotic.’
They showed a snippet of the interview where he said, ‘She sat with perfect posture for three hours straight. I’ve never seen anything like that, completely detached.’
Kim joked, ‘I was like, I knew I was half robot, other people realized it. No, he said “It was like she was out of her body,” and I go, “What would you think from someone sitting there, hearing horrible things about themselves, like am I supposed to sit there and be like, “How innovative! You called me a whore,” you know, like, of course you’re gonna freeze.’
‘You’re gonna just f***ing freeze and be like, “Uh huh. Yeah. Tracy, how much longer?”‘ she added.

She reiterated that if she got up to leave, ‘they would have said “Oh Kim’s mad, she’s such a bad sport,” when I’m like, “No, I have a flight to catch because I have like the f***ing Met ball and all this other stuff to do, but I will never ever ever do another roast again.’
Glaser said after the roast in May that the comedian who started the booing just started it as a joke.
‘He just had too many drinks or something, and he’s not affiliated with Swifties or anything [and] just felt like saying a boo into the air, and apparently everyone was so riled up,’ Glaser admitted.
Nikki, who also took the stage at the roast, added, ‘It just kinda caught wind, but it wasn’t Swiftie-meditated. I do have that on good information that it was not based on that. Because I was like, this doesn’t feel like a huge Swiftie crowd, but it didn’t feel like that was the vibe in the room.’
