Nikki Glaser Cut Caitlyn Jenner Joke From Comedy Central Roast After She Threatened to Pull Out of Event: ‘I Just Needed to Hear It From Her’
Nikki Glaser reveals she removed jokes about Caitlyn Jenner's car crash from a Comedy Central roast after she threatened to back out of the event.
Speaking at the Time100 Summit in New York, Glaser said she was workshopping her material around Los Angeles before the telecast — likely the roast of Alec Baldwin — and Jenner had caught wind of a joke she had prepared about Jenner’s involvement in a fatal car wreck. Glaser said she was “nervous” about performing material about the car crash and asked Comedy Central if she could give Jenner a warning. Glaser said she’ll “gladly” cut jokes that make subjects too uncomfortable, which stems from advice she once received from former Oscar host Jimmy Kimmel, who told Glaser: “If you’re worried about a joke and how it’s going to go over, just ask them.”
