Turns out the secret ingredient to a good roast is a flute solo.
Flute in hand alongside a “Krew of Kevins,” Lizzo made a surprise appearance at The Roast of Kevin Hart, the final night of the Netflix is a Joke Fest on Sunday (May 10). The singer led a procession of little people dressed as Kevin Hart characters onto the stage. As Lizzo played her flute to “Blow the Whistle” by Too Short and twerked, the Kevins danced along.
“C’mon, f— it up, Kevin,” the singer says as a “Kevin” dressed in a chicken costume break danced (the real Kevin Hart looked on in shock and confusion). “Go Kevin! Go Little Kevin!”
After handing off her flute, the “Rumors” singer took to the podium to deliver her roast of the famous comedian. For the occasion, Lizzo decided to poke fun at something she and Hart have in common.
“Kevin and I are both mocked for our size,” Lizzo began. “We share that pain. But I can lose weight, you can’t get taller n—,” Lizzo continued pointing at Hart and laughing.
Lizzo wasn’t the only musician to make an appearance at The Roast of Kevin Hart. Usher opened up the show with a parody of his Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 track “Burn,” with lyrics changed to make fun of Hart.
“Tell me why I should stay in this fake friendship/ ‘Cause we ain’t laughin’, Kevin/ It keeps happenin’, Kevin/ Plus, you’re probably somewhere filming some bulls–t/,” Usher sang as Hart asked him “what the f— [he was] doing.”
Fresh off her Visionary Award win at the Billboard Women in Music ceremony, singer and actress Teyana Taylor also hit the stage to roast the comedian. “See, I feel like roasting you is kind of beneath me,” Taylor said. “I know it’s kind of a foreign thing, a foreign concept, because there is literally nothing that is beneath you.”
Taylor didn’t stop with the height jokes and also compared her recent work to Hart’s: “I would never say something so hateful like, ‘I starred in One Battle After Another, while Kevin’s career has been one bomb after another.'”
