Tom Brady Gets Roasted On Netflix Special For Promoting FTX Exchange Before It Collapsed 

Former
NFL
star
Tom
Brady
was
roasted
during
a
Netflix
stream
for
promoting
the
FTX
cryptocurrency
exchange
before
it
collapsed.

“The
Roast
of
Tom
Brady”
streamed
on
Netflix
on
May
6.
Comedians
and
former
teammates
took
turns
to
tease
the
former
pro
footballer
on
his
career,
divorce,
and
other
areas
of
his
life.

Host
Kevin
Hart
mocked
Brady,
joking
about
why
the
Netflix
event
wasn’t
held
at
the
Crypto.com
arena
in
downtown
Los
Angeles.

“The
reason
why
we
didn’t
go
there
is
because
we
didn’t
want
to
remind
Tom’s
fans
of
how
much
money
he
owes
them,”
Hart
said.
“Tom
fucked
those
people.
Fucked
them
good,
didn’t
he?”

Comedian
Nikki
Glaser
also
teased
Brady
about
how
his
$30
million
worth
of
shares
in
FTX
evaporated
after
its
collapse.

“Tom,
how
did
you
fall
for
that?
I
mean
even
Gronk
was
like
“Me.
Know.
That.
Not.
Real.
Money,”
she
said,
referring
to
former
team
mate Rob
Gronkowski,
who
is
not
known
for
being
the
brightest
bulb
in
the
box.

Last
nights
Tom
Brady
roast
proved
that
comedy
is
indeed
back.
Watch
as
Brady
gets
COOKED
for
the
FTX
fraud
scheme

“Tom
also
lost
$30mil
in
crypto.
Tom
how
did

that?

Tom
Brady
At
FTX

Prior
to
its
collapse,
FTX,
under
the
leadership
of
Sam
Bankman-Fried,
enlisted
multiple
celebrities
to
promote
the
exchange.

Brady
and
his
now
ex-wife,
Giselle
Bundchen,
received
an
equity
stake
in
FTX
as
part
of
the
promotional
work.
Under
the
deal,
Brady
received
around
$30
million
worth
of
FTX
shares.

After
FTX
filed
for
bankruptcy
in
late
2022,
Brady,
his
ex-wife
and
other
celebrities
were
sued
in
a

class-action
lawsuit.
The
lawsuit
claimed
that
Brady
profited
from
promoting
FTX
at
the
expense
of
his
fans.
