Tony Hinchcliffe faces backlash for ‘misogynistic’ Kim Kardashian joke at Tom Brady roast
Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe is facing backlash for a vicious joke about Kim Kardashian at Tom Brady’s live Netflix comedy roast on Sunday evening (5 May).

Hinchcliffe, who is known for insult comedy, was discussing the Will Ferrell movie Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, and its famous “Whale’s vagina” line when he switched the topic of his roast to reality star Kardashian, who was in the crowd.

“A whale’s vagina, which reminds me, Kim Kardashian’s here. She’s had a lot of black men celebrating her endzone,” Hinchcliffe began, before directly addressing the Keep Up With The Kardashians star.

“Kim, word of advice, close your legs,” he said. “You have more public beef than Kendrick and Drake.”

The camera then panned to Kardashian who smiled and nodded, as the surrounding audience members laughed.While the event was a staged roast, and guests can expect to be subject to brutal jokes at their own expense, some Netflix viewers said the remark went too far, branding it “incredibly misogynistic” and “gross”.

“S*** shaming women in front of a crowd of people and making women the butt of a joke for absolutely no reason is so disrespectful,” wrote one viewer, as another added: “And what’s the punchline… misogyny?
