It wouldn’t be a roast without the Roastmaster General.

Jeff Ross came out guns blazing at Netflix’s live skewering of Kevin Hart, the second installment in a series of “GOAT” roasts that was hosted by Shane Gillis. Former roastee Tom Brady, Dwayne Johnson, Katt Williams and more stars came to cut Hart down to size.

Dressed in a replica of Eddie Murphy’s red leather getup from “Delirious,” Ross needled Hart about going to a Diddy party, his “pieces of shit” movies and his upbringing.
