Bruce Willis Comedy Central Roast is tonight-anyone going to watch?

The roasts haven't been as funny IMO in recent years but I'll still watch. IMO the 2 worst ones were Trump and Bieber. Those 2 had their people instruct the comedians and writers to avoid certain topics. The jokes mostly weren't as vicious or funny. I'm hoping Willis is more self-deprecating

I can't remember the film but Willis made a homophobic remark. Sort of offhanded - not important to anything. He was a big star at the time and he could have easily had the remark removed. So I thought: fuck you Bruce Willis I will never watch any more of your films . Actually easy to do I don't like the kind of moves he does...

I hope someone brings up the fact that he used to have his hairline inserted via CGI in his shit action movies.

by Anonymousreply 12July 29, 2018 9:45 PM

If anything untoward happened Aaron "attention whore" Carter would've screamed it from the rooftops for a payday. He denied it during an interview with Howard Stern years ago (The question about the gifts starts at the very end of Part 1 of this video) but I had always read the $1 million in gifts was revealed in court documents.

Cybill and Bruce saw each other when they did the commentary for the Moonlighting DVD. I think that was 10-15 years ago.
