Kim Kardashian has been mocked by comic Andrew Schulz for looking like a “robot with no human aspect” at Tom Brady’s Netflix roast.


Reality TV veteran Kardashian was one of the roasters of the retired NFL player during the livestreamed comedy special that aired on May 5. She was loudly heckled by the crowd for more than 10 seconds at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California when she took to the stage before she had even made her first joke.


Stand-up Schultz was on Brady’s roasting panel, has now claimed on his “Flagrant” podcast that Kardashian “sat with perfect posture for three hours straight” and seemed “disassociated” during the live Netflix special.

“[She] smiled, laughed — I’ve never seen anything like that. Completely unaffected,” he added.


Schultz also reflected on the “striking, perfectly symmetrical” reality star’s reaction to being savagely booed onstage, which was later edited out by the streaming platform.

“Even when she was up there, they were kind of booing her. It didn’t make her smile. It didn’t make her sad. It was nothing,” he continued, comparing her to a robot.

The version of the roast special now available on Netflix has a disclaimer saying the show has been “edited from a previous livestream,” with the boos aimed at Kardashian now removed.

Host Kevin Hart’s attempts to calm down the crowd have also been slashed from the show.

During the original stream, the shouting began as Hart introduced Kardashian — with the heckles so loud she had to restart her first gag.

“Alright, alright,” Kardashian told her critics.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa” Hart cried out from his seat.

Despite Hart backing her, Kardashian’s first gag was aimed at the 5-foot-1-inch tall comic. She mocked his height and the size of his manhood.

She then roasted Brady with a string of sexual jokes.

Kardashian and the former athlete were rumored to have dated in the past, and one of her jokes referenced the gossip.

“I wasn’t gonna come tonight, but since I’m not here as Tom’s date, there’s still a good chance I might,” the entrepreneur said.

“Speaking of Tom and I dating, I know there were some rumors that we were, and I’d never say if we did or not. I’d just release the tape,” Kardashian added, referencing her sex tape scandal.

Kardashian appeared to grow on the audience as the special went on and she received a wave of applause for a transphobic joke about her dating Brady that referenced her 74-year-old transgender stepmother Caitlyn Jenner.

“I do know it would never work out. An ex-athlete, high cheekbones, silky hair – you remind me too much of my stepdad,” Kardashian said.
