NFL star Tom Brady was at the receiving end of a Netflix roast event where several comedians took potshots at the celebrity’s personal life and recent investment misadventures related to crypto.
During the Netflix show titled “The Greatest Roast of All Time”, comedian Nikki Glaser made fun of Brady’s bad investments, especially with FTX.
“Tom also lost 30 million dollars in crypto… Tom, how did you fall for that?”
Pointing out Brady’s former teammate Rob Gronkowski, who was also present at the event, Glaser added, “Even Gronk had said, I know that’s not real money.”
The hilarious potshot at Brady left him in splits, as he was seen banging his forehead with his hands in a comical, remorseful manner.
Brady was a major investor and popular face for the FTX trading platform that recently collapsed following the arrest and conviction of founder Sam Bankman Fried. Tom and his former wife, Gisele Bundchen owned more than 1.7 million FTX shares and had also appeared in several commercials for FTX.
Later, popular comedian Kevin Hart also made remarks about his former wife Gisele, her current boyfriend, who is a jujitsu master, and his connection with FTX.
“Guys, why didn’t we go to the Crypto.com Arena downtown? The reason we didn’t go there is because we didn’t want to remind Tom’s fans of how much money he owes them,” Hart said. “He fucked those people. Tom fucked those people.”
Even though he’s done amazingly in football, his money decisions off the field have caused a lot of trouble and stress, which people could sense in the awkward laughter during the event.
Tom Brady was more than just an investor at FTX. He promoted the company and got paid with stocks, along with his former wife.
In May 2021, Brady started his own NFT platform called “Autograph” where fans could buy and sell his digital collectibles.
While Brady could be seen laughing at his roast event held in Los Angeles last night, one can’t deny that the particular joke about FTX must have left a bad taste in his mouth.
