Netflix slammed for ‘editing out’ Kim Kardashian getting booed after brutal appearance at Tom Brady’s roast
KIM Kardashian’s awkward moment from Tom Brady’s roast has been edited out of Netflix’s version on the streaming platform.
The Skims mogul was featured on Sunday’s live roast of the NFL alum, during which she was booed by the audience shortly after stepping to the podium.
Kim, 43, was introduced by comedian and host Kevin Hart, 44, who she jabbed as soon as she got to the microphone.
“Thank you Kevin. I know a lot of people make fun of your height,” she said to the actor as the audience roared with “boo’s.”
The Kardashians star then gave the crowd a glaring look as the awkward moment continued for a few seconds.
“Alright, alright, alright,” Kim said as she tried to calm down the roaring crowd.
After waiting, she repeated the same jab to the Get Hard star in an attempt to start over fully.
MAKING CHANGES
While the live version quickly circulated online, the painful moment was edited out of Netflix’s version later posted onto their platform.
The new roast now shows Kim quickly getting into her material without the audience’s initial reaction.
After noticing, fans quickly slammed the streaming service for the editing move on X, formerly Twitter.
“@netflix y’all trash for this,” one user tweeted.
“What is the logic/reasoning behind editing it out,” a second wrote.
“Does Netflix know what a roast is?” a third asked.
“Wacky move,” a fourth said, while another added, “This makes it even worse than just owning it.”
Others joked with tweets such as “boooo netflix” and “@netflix unsubscribe.”
ROAST DETAILS
After the moment happened live on Sunday night, some fans took to social media to applaud Kim for how she handled the uncomfortable situation.
“Oh my god! This was impossible to watch! I hope someone hugged her after!,” one viewer sympathized on Reddit.
“Oh my god! This is actually really mean!” a second wrote.
“[Kim] should feel good about it. Screw them haters!” another said, while someone else added, “Poor Kim, people are so mean.”
While the awkward moment may have stood out during the live airing, Kim’s name was also mentioned several other times throughout the night.
The reality star was the butt of the joke twice throughout the show, with Tony Hinchcliffe poking fun at the star’s former partners.
Tom also slammed Kim, saying her being at the roast meant her four young kids had to stay with their dad, Kanye West, 46.
As for Tom, the ex-New England Patriots player previously admitted he was not afraid of Kevin and the other participants making jokes at his expense.
“I’ve played in the NFL so I’m not worried about a bunch of comedians, trust me,” he told NBC’s Today last month.
This makes it even worse than just owning it.”

KIM X MET GALA
The roast came shortly before Kim’s Monday night appearance at the 2024 annual Met Gala in New York City.
The Skims mogul showed up to the fashion event in a corseted silver dress that cinched her tiny waist to the extreme.
Kim interpreted the gala’s Garden Of Time theme in a custom Margiela by John Galliano look, which was covered in silver metal lace and flowers.
The look contained mirror fragments and crystal pendants, and the couture corset was made from antique silver brocade.
She had her long blond hair styled in natural waves and paired the outfit with a grey cashmere cardigan, which she wore over her shoulders.
Kim told Vogue that the look was inspired by the idea of waking up in a garden and “grabbing your boyfriend’s sweater” before leaving.
She currently holds the title for the most Met Gala appearances in her famous family, followed by Kendall, 28, and Kylie, 26, who were both present Monday night.
Family matriarch Kris Jenner, 68, and her boyfriend Corey Gamble, also attended the star-studded event.
