Diddy Jokes Scrubbed From Kevin Hart’s Netflix Roast

Kevin Hart was on the receiving end of several brutal jabs in his Netflix roast special, but it turns out several Diddy jokes were scrubbed before it aired.

During the show, Katt Williams accused Hart of attending several “Diddy parties,” which the actor and comedian denied.

Meanwhile, jokes about Charlie Kirk and George Floyd have left the internet divided, with many slamming comedian Pete Davidson for taking a swipe at the late conservative activist.

For nearly three hours, viewers tuned in to watch Hart become the punchline for many of his friends, including Davidson, Chelsea Handler, and host Shane Gillis.

The show featured many hilarious jabs from different celebrities, but it appears not every joke made the cut.

According to reports, several Diddy jokes were scrubbed from the archived version, along with many others. Comedy writer Madison Sinclair, who worked on the series, told Variety that 18 of her best jokes were left on the cutting room floor.

“Kevin, you are so talented, but you are the worst cheater. With your build, I assumed you’d be better at sneaking around,” Sinclair shared as one example of a joke that did not make it in.

Katt Williams Grills Hart Over Diddy Party Claims

However, some jokes related to Diddy, among others, did land. During his set, Katt Williams accused Hart of going to Diddy parties, which have been repeatedly referenced amid the legal troubles surrounding the “Bad Boy For Life” rapper.

Williams claimed that Hart had faced “allegations” that he was part of a group of celebrities who attended parties organized by Diddy, who is currently serving a 50-month sentence after being convicted on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.

“But thanks to all the baby oil, the charges didn’t stick,” Williams joked during his set. “Kevin famously was at a bunch of Diddy parties, but in his defense, it was only because Diddy thought he was 10.”

In his defense, Hart denied attending the parties before adding that Williams only knew of his presence because he was there as well, per PEOPLE Magazine.

After all was said and done, the “Ride Along” actor took the stage last to perform his own set and made sure to respond to Williams’ claims.

“Katt said I went to Diddy parties… I ain’t been to no f-cking Diddy parties. I went to one party — and this is the truth — I went to one f-cking party. And the only reason why that lil n-gga knew I was there is ’cause he was there!” Hart said.

Tom Brady And The Rock Also Hit Hart With NSFW Jabs

Despite the edits, the special was not short on fireworks. NFL legend Tom Brady made a surprise appearance to get “revenge” on Hart, who hosted Brady’s own roast in 2024.

Brady did not hold back, bringing up Hart’s 2017 cheating scandal in Las Vegas, a moment that left the usually talkative comedian uncharacteristically silent.

“I do have a few words for you before I return to my affairs in Las Vegas,” Brady joked. “Oh, wait, I’m talking about affairs in Las Vegas. Was that off? Not supposed to talk about affairs in Vegas? I think I broke another rule. F-ck it. I talked about it.”

His close collaborator Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson also made a crude remark about Hart’s sex life, saying his wife “deserves an Academy Award for pretending she likes to f-ck you.”

Kevin Hart Roast Divides Viewers Over George Floyd Joke

Meanwhile, the Netflix special also caused a stir online after fans raised eyebrows over Tony Hinchcliffe’s remarks about George Floyd while roasting Hart.

“The Black community is so proud of you… Right now, George Floyd is looking up at us all laughing so hard he can’t breathe,” Hinchcliffe said.

According to TMZ, Floyd’s family and friends did not take kindly to the comedian’s comment and found it offensive that Hart appeared to condone it. They also felt he should have told Hinchcliffe to steer clear of that topic.

They reportedly described Hinchcliffe as a “racist comedian” and wondered how Hart would feel if “one of his friends” had been killed in Floyd’s place.
