Nikki Glaser Turns Down Kevin Hart Roast: Why Did She Say 'No'?

Comedian Nikki Glaser revealed that she turned down the offer to participate in the Kevin Hart roast for Netflix, citing a lack of time. Glaser, known for her participation in similar events, explained that she couldn't dedicate the necessary time to deliver her best performance. The news was announced at the iHeartRadio Music Awards at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

Glaser mentioned that, although she enjoys these types of events and usually succeeds, she currently doesn't have the time to prepare adequately. She also recalled that she recently participated in the roast of Kevin Hart at the Golden Globes and at the Tom Brady roast. "I'm coming up short with short jokes," Glaser commented.

Nikki Glaser has extensive experience in the world of roasts, having participated in similar events with other celebrities. Among the figures who have been the object of her jokes and comments are Rob Lowe, Alec Baldwin, and Bruce Willis. Her career in this type of event demonstrates her skill for comedy and her ability to connect with the audience.

The comedian has proven to be a recurring figure in this type of show, which underlines her popularity and recognition in the entertainment industry.

In related news, it was announced that Nikki Glaser will return as host of the Golden Globes for a third time in 2027. Glaser expressed her desire to continue in the position, highlighting that it is an experience that fills her with satisfaction. She states that it is a unique opportunity in the year to give her best and feel proud of the work done.

The comedian describes the experience as something that scares and excites her at the same time, and that provides her with self-esteem by overcoming her fears. She also mentioned that she hopes this experience will help her combat depression.

Nikki Glaser's next project is her comedy special 'Good Girl', which will premiere on Hulu on April 24. Glaser confessed to feeling nervous about the release, as the special includes jokes she has told for years in her live performances. The comedian commented that it is different to tell jokes live than to record them for television.

The prospect of the material becoming public fills her with apprehension, anticipating comments and reactions from the public. Glaser compared the experience of doing stand-up to sex, describing the intensity and subsequent discomfort of having to talk about it.

During the iHeartRadio Music Awards, where Taylor Swift made a rare public appearance, Nikki Glaser, a self-proclaimed 'Swiftie', revealed that she preferred not to have a face-to-face encounter with the superstar. Although they met years ago, before Glaser became a big fan, the comedian admitted that she would feel very nervous and would probably act inappropriately.

Glaser stated that she preferred to admire Swift from a distance, happy with the idea of breathing the same air as her. The comedian demonstrated her respect and admiration for the singer, preferring to avoid any situation that could be uncomfortable.
