It's a show where a famous celebrity guest stars, and other celebrities and comedians make fun of them.

You really don't have that in England?

A roast is a huge event where a single person (usually) is the honored guest. Then, a panel of that person's friends/peers each get up and get a turn to pay homage to that single person. The way they do that is to basically destroy them with insults. You can pretty much say anything you want about that person, and try to entertain the crowd while doing so. It's a real huge honor that many great celebrities have gone through, and I believe that part of the honor is that you're recognized for being able to sit there and take everything in stride.

After each individual person does their speech, they usually end off with "no, but seriously, this is one of the greatest guys ever, etc. etc." and it's all done in fun. You get to rip on anyone in the building, basically. Even if you're a celebrity that's out in the audience, it's basically open season. Lol. Flav's panel of friends/roasters was like Cat Williams, Snoop Dogg, Jimmy Kimmel, Lisa Lamponelli, Bridgette Nielson, Simore, and two other comedians, and they were just pwning each other all damn night. I mean, some of the insult/jokes they threw were fuckin wrong! LOL.

Then, at the end of the show, whoever's getting roasted get's a chance to come up to the mic and hit everybody back that was roasting him all night. Heh.

Good times.

Oh, and yeah, I'd really be surprised if they didn't do that in England.

O YOU ARE SO LATE!!

I watched this months ago.

CATCH UP ON THE TIMES OLD MAN!!

Just kidding....

I just knew about it a few months ago because Kat was gonna be on it.

I love that man.

I've heard of none of them. Waah.

I'm not aware of them in England at all. If we do have them, they'll be on Channel 4 with Jimmy Carr hosting in some way. Hmmm...

Omg it was hilarious. I love Kat haha, he's one of my favorite comedians.

Judge Mo Dollas!!

(Although that show was horibble )

The girls on Flavor of Love look like the 3 a.m. shift at the Jacksonville, Florida Waffle House. Ice T tried not to laugh his ass off at that one but couldn't help it.
