Dwayne Johnson Roasts Kevin Hart Hard During Netflix Event and Jokes About His Wife
Dwayne Johnson delivered a series of outrageous jokes and personal digs during Netflix’s live roast of Kevin Hart, but it was his remarks about Hart’s wife, Eniko Hart, that elicited the loudest reactions from the audience.
The roast occurred at Netflix Is a Joke Fest at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, as reported from the live event. Johnson made a grand entrance, complete with booming music, flashing lights, and Queen’s “We Will Rock You” accompanying his walk onto the stage.
Once he had the microphone in hand, Johnson wasted no time in roasting his longtime friend and co-star.
“Now, I know what you’re all assuming is that I’m here to carry another shitty Kevin Hart vehicle,” Johnson quipped. “But for once, that’s not the case.”
Throughout his set, Johnson continued to poke fun at Hart’s height and personality. At one point, he referred to Hart as his “little Burnt Oompa-Loompa” before turning his focus to Eniko Hart, who was seated in the audience.
“I want to just take a moment to give a shout out to all the ladies up here on this dais,” Johnson remarked. “You all look beautiful, magnificent, sexy. You know who else looks sexy? Kevin’s wife, Eniko.”
Hart reacted immediately from his seat, exclaiming, “What the fuck?” Johnson chuckled and replied, “I’m just giving her compliments!”
The humor quickly escalated to more personal and explicit territory. Johnson joked that Eniko deserved “an Academy Award for pretending she likes to fuck you.” He also teased Hart by suggesting he and Eniko should share some tequila together. Another joke centered around why women might be attracted to Hart.
“He’s the same size and color as their favorite dildo,” Johnson joked, adding that Hart was “twice as loud.”
Comedian Chelsea Handler also joined in on the roast, delivering another jab aimed at Hart and his wife.
“Don’t you think it’s time for Eniko to be with somebody that is bigger than her?” Handler asked. Despite the harsh jokes, Johnson concluded his set by reminding Hart that the insults were all in good fun.
“I love you. Yes, I do,” Johnson told him towards the end of the show. He then made one last NSFW joke, claiming he had gotten a life-sized Kevin Hart tattoo. Johnson later joked directly to Eniko, “I’ll show you later. Kidding. She’s already seen it!”
After the roast, Hart humorously confronted Johnson about the comments regarding his wife. “Why would you say that about my fucking wife? I want to talk to you later,” Hart said. Johnson quickly reminded him that nothing was off-limits during the roast. “But you’re the one who said, ‘Hey, listen, fucking say anything you want!’” he replied.
The roast featured appearances from several celebrities, including Venus Williams, Serena Williams, Lizzo, and Tom Brady. Other comedians and actors also took the stage throughout the night.
Johnson and Hart have collaborated for years in films like ‘Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle’, ‘Jumanji: The Next Level’, and ‘Central Intelligence’. According to the roast event, the duo is set to reunite for the upcoming movie ‘Jumanji: Open World’ later this year.
