Did y’all watch Comedy Central’s Roast of James Franco last night? You guys. SO FUNNY. While some of our picks for roasters were not present — Anne Hathaway didn’t make it and was the butt of many jokes — Franco pals like Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Andy Samberg, Nick Kroll, and Aziz Ansari were on hand, as were Roast staples like Sarah Silverman and Jeffrey Ross, and Roast newcomers Natasha Leggero and Bill Hader. They each took the others to task in truly hysterical, no-holds-barred fashion: Jonah Hill was torn a new asshole for how much of a cock he’s become since being nominated for an Oscar, Hader and Samberg were ribbed for making the dumb decision to leave “Saturday Night Live,” and there were lots of jokes about how much Judd Apatow dick they all suck. Then, of course, it was all about roasting Franco — for his squinty eyes, shit hosting job at the Oscars, his many, many, many (crappy) side careers, and, of course, all those gay rumors. My favorite roasters were Bill Hader, who came out as “The President of Hollywood” and delivered his roast in character, and Andy Samberg, who perfectly delivered a series of intentionally weak zingers. Watch Hader’s roast above, and then Samberg’s after the jump. Franco then took to the stage to roast his pals and it was, well, way better than anything we saw from him at the Academy Awards.
