Tom Brady faced the ultimate challenge at his live Netflix comedy roast, “The Greatest Roast of All Time.” Honoring the seven-time Super Bowl champion meant mercilessly teasing him, a task undertaken by former teammates and celebrity comedians. Though Jeff Ross, Kevin Hart, and Andrew Schulz delivered their share of zingers, Nikki Glaser ultimately stole the spotlight.

While the other roastmasters focused on Brady’s NFL career and recent divorce from Gisele Bündchen. Glaser, however, carved out a unique niche. She boldly referenced Brady’s ex, Bridget Moynahan, quipping, “Hard to walk away from something that isn’t your pregnant girlfriend” while talking of his retirement.  But her biggest hit was a “crypto joke” involving Brady and Rob Gronkowski, winning over the internet with her sharp wit.

While most roastmasters delivered the expected jabs, stand-up comedian and actress Nikki Glaser shattered expectations with her unique brand of humor. She fearlessly touched on a subject no one else dared — the NFL legend’s entanglement in the infamous crypto-scam.  After his retirement, Brady became a prominent ambassador for the cryptocurrency exchange FTX, only to reportedly lose a staggering $30 million when the company collapsed last year.

Glaser seized this golden opportunity to be her stand-up material. “Tom also lost 30 million dollars of crypto. Tom how did you fall for that?” she quipped, before dragging Brady’s favorite tight end, Rob Gronkowski, into the mix.  “Even Gronk was like, ‘No, that’s not real money’!'” she added, mimicking his voice.  The audience erupted in laughter, and the internet quickly followed suit, praising Glaser’s fearless and hilarious take on the situation.
