#ROAST OF JAMES FRANCO PUTLOCKER PROFESSIONAL#
The history of professional roasts dates back to the Fifties, when the private organization known as the Friars Club gave its male members - women were not allowed in until 1988 - the chance to put on tuxedos and take low-blow pot shots at other comedians.
#ROAST OF JAMES FRANCO PUTLOCKER FULL#
The Comedy Central Roast of Donald Trump was originally taped on March 9, 2011.It's an age-old, and admittedly odd, tradition: A famous person gathers together a room full of friends, celebrity fans and some of the funniest stand-up comics working today - and then invites them to say the most horrible things imaginable about him or her in front of a crowded room and TV cameras. Roasters included Whitney Cummings, Lisa Lampanelli, Jeffrey Ross, Marlee Matlin (interpreted by friend and business partner Jack Jason, and later a surprisingly appereance by Gilbert Gottfried), Anthony Jeselnik, Larry King, Snoop Dogg, and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino. Melania Trump, Ivanka Trump, Ice-T, Russell Simmons, John Legend, Lindsay Lohan, and David Foster were in the audience. The Alec Baldwin Roast will air on Comedy Central, which means it’ll be available to live stream on Comedy Central’s website as well as the Comedy Central App (available on iTunes, Google Play. The roast consisted of jokes toward Trump's hairstyle, his show The Apprentice, and his family. Jokes were also made about Jeselnik's fame (or lack thereof), Matlin's deafness, King's age, and Jersey Shore. Several roasters paid respect to Greg Giraldo, a Comedy Central Roast regular, who died on September 29, 2010. Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino was highly criticized for his performance as a result, Comedy Central pulled several of his jokes from the television airing of the roast. This roast was dedicated in memory of Greg Giraldo.

This was also the first time someone served as roastmaster more than once, as Seth MacFarlane also roasted David Hasselhoff. The roast was taped in Los Angeles on September 10, 2011, and was broadcast on September 19, 2011, exactly one hour after the premiere of Ashton Kutcher's first episode of replacing Sheen on Two and a Half Men. Roasters included Mike Tyson, Jeff Ross, Anthony Jeselnik, Steve-O, William Shatner, Kate Walsh, Jon Lovitz, Patrice O'Neal and Amy Schumer. Slash made an appearance playing his guitar during Sheen's entrance. Harvey Levin from TMZ.com was scheduled to appear but ended up not doing so. During an interview on The View, Sheen's ex-wife, Denise Richards stated that she hadn't been invited to appear and, while she thought roasting her ex-husband could be humorous and that he would be able to take it, she feared it would have a negative impact on their daughters. Sheen's famous family members, Emilio Estevez and Martin Sheen, were unable to attend as they were promoting their film The Way, although Martin appeared in a commercial for the roast, spoofing his film Apocalypse Now. Brooke Mueller, Aaron Paul, Corbin Bernsen, Duane Chapman, Michael Boatman, Kristin Cavallari and Richard Kind appeared in the audience. Seth MacFarlane made his third appearance as the roastmaster. A montage of Sheen's film and television work were featured, though due to legal reasons, clips of his tenure on Two and a Half Men were never used. In the UK and Turkey, on the network which Two and a Half Men airs, The Roast of Charlie Sheen aired directly after Kutcher's first Two and a Half Men episode. This was O'Neal's final television appearance before his death on November 29, 2011.
