So, how about this?
A miniseries where I play a handsome astronaut
who ages in reverse?
Right? Great.
Great talking to you, James Cameron...'s assistant.
Boo!
Aah!
Oh, my God. You scared me.
Don't bring up God, okay?
I'm the devil. Remember?
You're not getting my soul.
You haven't lived up to your end of the bargain.
What are you talking about?
You're a famous, hot person. That was the deal.
No. The deal was I'd be a famous movie star.
You're one of the biggest movie stars of all time.
I loved you in "Edge of Tomorrow."
That was Tom Cruise.
Shit. Really? He was great.
But anyway, I just wanted to say
have fun tonight, but I got to head out.
You're not staying? No. I hate roasts. They're too mean.
Oh, well, do you have any advice? Yes.
Take everything personally, open with your best rape joke,
and if the night goes slow, just go into the audience,
grab a baby, and slap it.
Wait a minute. That's terrible advice.
What can I say? I give terrible advice.
I'm a terrible guy,
just like that character you played in "Topic Thunder."
-That was Tom Cruise. -I did it again.
So, after tonight, you're taking my soul?
No. I can't.
You already sold your soul when you did
those stupid DirecTV commercials.
Now go on out there and give as good as you get.
[ Sighs ] All right.
Hey, "RoLo," I got to come clean.
I know I look amazing, but I'm not the devil. [ Somber music plays ]

Thank you.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Welcome to the Comedy Central Roast of Rob Lowe.
That's right.
We're here to honor one of the biggest stars of 1987...
[ Laughter ]
with some of the biggest stars of 1984.
[ Chuckles ]
Ralph Macchio is here.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Ralph's a great guy. I drove over here with him.
Gave him five stars.
[ Laughter ]
Many of you know Rob from "Parks and Rec."
A lot of you know him from "The West Wing."
[ Cheers and applause ]
A couple of people know him from Grindr.
[ Laughter, wolf whistle ]
And if you swiped right,
you met him in person 10 minutes later.
[ Laughter ]
At one time, Rob was one of the biggest stars in the world.
He was an A-list actor.
He was named one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world,
and he fucked the other 49.
[ Laughter ]
These are compliments.
And now, the moment your stepmom has been waiting for --
Rob Lowe's package.
I'm Rob Lowe.

Rob, good to see you. How's it going?
So far, so -- Talk to me at about an hour. [ Chuckles ]
Is this guy hot or what?
There's not a dry pussy in the place. [ Cheers and applause ]
We have a clean up on every chick's chair.
[ Laughter ]
For years Rob Lowe had a sex addiction,
but he cured it by getting less famous.
[ Laughter ]
Rob was in a movie called "The Outsiders" back in the day.
Remember that? [ Cheers and applause, wolf whistle ]
His character was called Sodapop
because, at the time, Rob was 98% coke.
[ Laughter ]
I remember the first time I became aware of Rob.
I was at a casting meeting for "Tommy Boy"
when I came across your head shot,
and I do mean "came across."
[ Laughter ]
He's good-looking.
It's not easy being Rob.
He said being so handsome made it difficult
for him to find meaningful roles.
I wanted to ask Brad Pitt about that,
but he was too busy acting in meaningful roles.
[ Laughter ]
Rob's not a gay man,
but he plays one every moment of his life.
[ Laughter ]
Rob has a line of skin-care products.
You can buy them online.
You won't, but you can.
[ Laughter ]
[ Laughs ]
Our younger audience might not know who you are,
so, kids, this is who your mom thinks about
when she's fucking your dad.
[ Laughter ]
Rob was great on "The West Wing."
You remember that show?
[ Cheers and applause ]
I assume your pal Charlie Sheen helped you with that.
He's used to working with "aides."
[ Audience ohhs ] White House aides.
What did you g--
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Rob looks great for his age.
Many people have wondered if he's had any plastic surgery.
Those same people have wondered
if Caitlyn Jenner has any plastic surgery.
[ Laughter ]
Rob came up at a time when a sex tape could
really ruin your career.
But Rob had to do it the hard way -- with his acting.
[ Laughter ]
Rob was in the "Austin Powers" movie 16 years ago.
Can you believe it's 16? Or, as he calls it, 18.
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah!
These are little jabs.
Rob was in "Austin Powers 2."
He was excited to meet the cat, Mr. Bigglesworth,
since it had been a while since he'd made a movie
with a hairless pussy.
[ Laughter ]
Rob has been clean and sober for 26 years.
To put that in perspective, if --
[ Cheers and applause ] That's right.
26 years.
To put that in perspective, if sobriety was a baby,
he would have fucked it 10 years ago.
[ Laughter ]
It really makes you...
Rob has been called "The Comeback Kid."
No. I read that wrong.
Rob has come on the back of a kid.
That's right -- in the video. That's right. [ Laughter ]
Glad we got that out of the way. All right.
Here we go.
It's time for me to stop yapping
and to bring up the first roaster,
Pete Davidson.
Pete's dad never got to see him on "SNL"
because he passed away on 9/11.
Pete's mom has never seen him on "SNL" because she blinks.
[ Laughter ]
Is Pete white? Is he black?
Ann Coulter needs to know so she can decide if she hates him.
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Pete, I actually thought you were black,
but I guess you just have your dad's ashy skin.
[ Audience ohhs ] Here he is -- Pete Davidson!
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
Whoa.
Macaulay Culkin looks worse than I thought.
[ Laughter ]
[ Chuckles ]
You know, last year, we did Bieber,
and now it's Rob Lowe.
Who's next -- Flo, the Progressive Lady?
[ Laughter ]
David, thanks for taking time away
from waiting for Sandler to write "Grown Ups 3" to be here.
[ Laughter ]
David Spade's assistant once tried to kill him in his sleep,
and the world was shocked
to find out you could afford an assistant.
[ Laughter ] That's not bad.
Rob Riggle is here.
I actually really love Rob Riggle.
Rob -- Yeah. Rob was as -- [ Cheers and applause ]
Rob was a Marine --
the few, the proud --
which also describes his fans.
[ Laughter ]
Peyton Manning is here.
I fucking love Peyton Manning.
[ Cheers and applause ] He's the shit.
Peyton -- Peyton looks like if football players evolved
to no longer need helmets.
[ Laughter ]
No, seriously, Peyton, I love all your of work,
especially when I saw you in "The Goonies" yelling,
"Hey, you guys!"
[ Laughter ]
A super bowl is also what Peyton's mom had
to cut his hair with as a child.
[ Laughter ]
Jimmy Carr is here.
When I first met Jimmy Carr, I thought, "Wow!
Jeff Dunham's puppets are getting amazing!"
[ Laughter ]
Jimmy, you look like a butler in a haunted mansion.
Nikki Glaser's here. I'm friends with Nikki.
So, it's -- She's very funny. [ Cheers and applause ]
You know, Nikki has a show called "Not Safe,"
though most people call it "Not Schumer."
[ Audience ohhs ]
Ah, fuck you.
Well, Ralph Macchio is here. That's really cool, right?
Ralph Macchio, right? [ Cheers and applause ]
You may know Ralph Macchio from saying, "Wax on, wax off,"
if you've been to the car wash on Melrose and La Brea.
[ Laughter ]
And Ann Coulter is here, everybody.
Ann Coulter, if you're here,
who's scaring the crows away from our crops?!
[ Laughter ]
You know, Ann describes herself as a polemicist,
but most people call her a cunt.
[ Laughter ]
You know, last year, we had Martha Stewart,
who sells sheets, and now we have Ann Coulter,
who cuts eyeholes in them.
[ Laughter ]
Uh, anyway, Jewel's here.
Jewel, I won't make fun of you yet
'cause I want to give everyone at home time
to Google who you are. [ Laughter ]
My mom really wanted me to get you to sign this.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I, uh -- I don't know what the fuck it is.
If it's a phone, it's broken,
but she'd really appreciate if you could sign this.
My mom came here to see you, so, uh, yeah.
Let's hear it for Rob Lowe, okay? Right?
[ Cheers and applause ] Rob Lowe.
Or, as gonorrhea doctors call him, patient zero.
[ Laughter ]
People call Rob Lowe a bad actor,
but that's only because they never saw him tell his wife
he didn't fuck that nanny.
[ Laughter ]
Rob has two beautiful kids here.
Not his children -- They're just guaranteed in his contract.
[ Laughter ]
Rob was the first male spokesperson
for the Lee National Denim Day, which raises millions of dollars
for breast-cancer research, you know?
That's a great thing. It's a disease -- Yeah.
[ Cheers and applause ]
It's a disease that his mother, his grandmother,
and great-grandmother suffered from.
But you still fucked a 16-year-old girl in 1988.
[ Laughter ]
It doesn't change anything.
You still did that.
I'm coming for you.
No, seriously, thank you for having me here.
I don't know why I'm here. I don't know who any of you are, really.
It's like -- I was born after all this happened.
But, seriously, you've had an amazing career.
And I'll be extremely lucky if I'm, you know, able
to tell jokes up here 30 years later.
Actually, no, that would mean I would just be Jeff Ross,
so never mind. [ Laughter ]
Give it up for Rob Lowe, everybody.
Thank you.

I'm sorry, Jeff. I didn't mean to make you hungry.

Hey, speaking of bleached, hairy assholes,
let's talk about Rob Lowe for a minute.
Rob, in both your sex tapes,
you appeared with two other people.
Good God, man, you can't even carry a sex tape.
[ Laughter ]
You're like the me of sex tapes.
Self-deprecating!
Beat you to the punch!
Fun fact --
Ann Coulter has a big, angry bush.
No joke. That's just a fun fact.
Rob's played many wonderful characters in film.
Recently, he played JFK in the movie "Killing Kennedy."
Jesus Christ, hasn't that family suffered enough?
[ Laughter ]
Grassy knoll!
But not as grassy as Ann Coulter's big, angry bush!
Instant callback!
[ Laughter ]
[ Applause ]
And who can forget "Parks and Rec,"
where Rob played a guy who misused the word "literally"?
Correct use of the word would be something like --
I don't know, um --
"Rob Lowe has literally had sex with everyone in this room"
except Ann Coulter because her bush is literally too angry!
Yes! Three-peat! It's a three-peat!
They said I couldn't do it, but I did it!
I nailed Ann Coulter's bush three times!

Rob, you're a good man and a good friend,

People may be wondering what my connection is to Rob.
Well, years ago, I was cast in a show called "Lyon's Den."
I'm sure none of you saw it because it starred Rob Lowe.
But anyway,
the first script said that Rob and I were supposed to kiss,
and I asked them if they could rewrite it
so I wouldn't have to
because I knew where that mouth had been.
But they said no, and I had to do it.
So, years later, Rob wrote in his memoir
that I was the only girl in history
who did not want to kiss Rob Lowe.
He talked about it on his book tour.
He bitched about it on "Howard Stern."
He even made out with Ellen to show her what it was like.
Yeah.
Well, that part I actually kind of understood
because kissing him did make me feel like a lesbian.

Rob Lowe is like a Ken doll.
He's plastic and often the first thing
to enter a teenage girl's vagina.
[ Audience groans, light laughter ]
Underage girls always felt safe making sex tapes with Rob
because they knew no one would ever watch
a movie starring Rob Lowe.
[ Laughter ]
Rob has been involved in four lawsuits
with former nannies.
Rob says he didn't fuck those nannies,
and I believe him because he's either telling the truth
or he's the best actor in the world.

It's been an honor being here tonight.
My friends back at home aren't gonna believe me

Thank you, David.
For your first roast,
this has got to be really exciting for you.
Your performance so far reminds me
of my rookie year in the NFL,
when I threw a league high 28 interceptions
and had absolutely no clue what I was doing.
[ Laughter ]
As we all know, I followed in my father's footsteps,
but, David, you forged a path on your own.
I know you wanted to follow in your dad's footsteps,
but he snuck out of the house so carefully
he didn't leave any tracks.
[ Laughter ] Oh, my God.
Peyton!
Peyton Manning bringing it!
He's bringing it!
But you did it anyway, David.
You went out and got a business degree
from Arizona State...
[ Laughter ]
although, to be fair, I think we all know
that a business degree from Arizona State is
just a bar towel that says, "You read good."
[ Laughter ]
[ Applause ] Woman: Love you, Peyton!
Speaking of reading, I recently read Spade's memoir,
"Almost Interesting."
Actually, I'm lying -- You really think the first book
I picked up in 20 years is gonna be by the guy
who played Dickie Roberts, former child star?
[ Laughter ] I don't think so.
What the fuck?
No, Peyton.
By the way, David, that title, "Almost Interesting" --
Talk about false advertising. [ Laughter ]
Now, if you wanted to be honest, you should have called it
"Almost Tall Enough to Ride a Roller Coaster."

Congrats on that, Ann. Great job.
Holy cow. Stay gold, Ponyboy.
It's Ralph Macchio.
I'm a big fan, Ralph.
"The Outsiders," "My Cousin Vinny,"
"The Karate Kid" --
Remember when Mr. Miyagi taught you that crane kick?
Gosh, was that awesome.
It was even more awesome seeing you do it backstage to
a vending machine that ate your dollar.
[ Laughter ]
But I got to tell you, I got to tell you --
I have no idea who the rest of you guys up here are.
I mean, I've been sitting up here tonight
with all these folks that no one's ever heard of,
thinking to myself, "Did I just get traded
to the Jacksonville Jaguars?"
[ Cheers and applause ]
I mean, this dais -- Come on.
They had to fly in some weirdo from England
just to get enough guys up here.
[ Laughter ]
No offense, weirdo. It's Jimmy Carr, right?
That's your name? Welcome to America.
[ Laughter ]
I know you guys use words differently there.
Like, for example, in England, "football" means "soccer,"
and here in America, "Jimmy Carr" means,
"We couldn't get Russell Brand."
[ Laughter ]
[ Applause ]
I just met this guy Pete Davidson backstage
before the show -- a great guy.
He asked to take a picture with me,
and I didn't even realize he was one of the comedians.
I told him, "Don't give up, kid.
Whatever disease you have, you can beat it."
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Davidson: Guys.
Guys, that's the Super Bowl king.
That's the Super Bowl king.
Yes.
But enough about these benchwarmers.
You guys didn't come here tonight
to find out about these losers.
You came here tonight to find out
why in the heck I came here tonight.
[ Cheering ] Well, five years ago,
ESPN NFL insider Rob Lowe here tweeted out
to the entire world that I was retiring from football.
Not five months ago, when I actually did retire,
but five years ago, Sodapop Curtis tweeted
that I was done,
finished.
I mean, Rob, I never tried to ruin your big moments.
I didn't tell people when "The Grinder" got canceled
or when "Dr. Vegas" got canceled
or when "Lyon's Den" got canceled
or when "Moonbeam City" got canceled
or when your DirectTV commercials got canceled.
Heck, I was just thinking, had you been quarterback
for the Broncos last year,
the freaking Super Bowl would have been canceled.
[ Laughter ]
In fact, the only thing you're consistently on is Twitter,
which is surprising because you've
never been able to master one character, let alone 140.
[ Cheers and applause ]
But look, pal, what's done is done.
What do you say we put this whole thing behind us?
I wish you well.
I sincerely hope you can break
this 20-season losing streak you've been on.
But, hey, I don't worry about Rob Lowe.
He is a workhorse.
And heck, man, if they ever stop casting you in sitcoms,
just look on the bright side -- You tried to take the air
out of my retirement announcement so fast,
you can probably get a job as Tom Brady's ball boy.

All right.

Rob wrote a memoir called
"Stories I Only Tell My Friends."
Chapter 1 -- "The Day I Fucked Your Wife."
[ Laughter ]
You're almost up. Uh...
Despite all the insane jokes you've heard about Rob,
he's actually had a great career, obviously.
Rob has been in some of the most successful movies
of our lifetime --
I'm sorry -- on Lifetime.
[ Laughter ]
We've had a lot of fun with Rob tonight,
and just like his movies,
now he's gonna ruin it by talking.
[ Laughter ]
The truth is, Rob's a great guy.
He's a great family man.
I did "Tommy Boy" with him. I love him.
Please welcome the man of the hour --
And I hope we're still friends -- Rob Lowe.
[ Cheers and applause ]

[ Sighs heavily ]
We are at a unique moment in our country's history.
Tonight is neither the time
nor the place to sow the seeds of divisiveness.
Words matter.
People matter.
Black lives matter. -Whoo!
-Yeah! -Not enough to have
a black person on the dais, but trust me, they --
they matter. [ Laughter ]
I want to thank Spade for hosting tonight.
He was -- He was amazing.
Love you. Love you. [ Cheers and applause ]
Oh, by the way, um,
"SNL" has just released a compilation
of David's funniest sketches.
It's called "The Best of Chris Farley."
[ Laughter ]
[ Applause ]
You know, when they asked me to choose my dais,
number 18 was number one.
Peyton Manning is a two-time Super Bowl Champion...
[ Cheers and applause ]
and a certain Hall of Famer,
but it didn't give him a big head.
That came from years of inbreeding.
[ Laughter ]
Peyton's here tonight to show Zika babies
it could really be much worse.
[ Audience ohhs ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Waiting for that one.
You know, Rolling Stone has called Jewel
the poet laureate of her generation.
Hey Jewel, I've got a poem.
"Roses are red. Your music sucks."
[ Laughter ]
You suck at poetry, too? Wow!
Jewel has performed for the Pope.
In fact, it's the reason the Pope insists
on always being in a soundproof glass box.
[ Laughter ]
Pete Davidson.
Yeah, good to have you here tonight.
You know...
[ Laughter ]
...as he talks about in his stand-up --
and everywhere else -- he lost his father on 9/11.
Pete, your performance tonight was a fitting tribute
to your dad because it was like watching
a third plane hit the World Trade Center.
[ Audience groans ]
-Hey. -That's awful!
No, really, I actually --
I do think you're going to be the next Adam Sandler.
And I knew it the minute I saw David Spade blowing you
before the show.
[ Laughter ]
[ Applause ] I like the follow-through, Mr. Lowe.
I made my wife laugh. [Chuckles] What a rarity.
Um...
[ Laughter ]
It's 56 days to Halloween,
but I see that Ann Coulter's already in her skeleton costume.
[ Applause ]
People ask, "Why is Ann Coulter here tonight?"
Answer --
Because the right-to-lifers wanted everyone to see
what an abortion looks like up close.
[ Audience ohhs ]
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
And, you know, Ann, after seeing your set tonight,
I think we've all witnessed the first bombing
that you can't blame on a Muslim.
[ Laughter ]
[ Cheers and applause ]
Rob Riggle!
Rob, as we learn tonight, is a lieutenant colonel
in the Marines and served in Afghanistan.
By the way, great job on that.
[ Laughter ]
Rob was then going to serve his country further
as a navy pilot, but he decided to drop out
and pursue a career in Hollywood,
like a true American piece of shit.
[ Laughter ]
Jimmy Carr.
Born to Irish Catholic parents, raised Catholic,
Jimmy first knew he was funny at age 9
when he made his priest laugh so hard
that cum shot out of his nose.
[ Laughter ]
True story.
Oh, boy.
Ralphie Macchio,
my old buddy from "The Outsi--" Stay gold.
You know, I never told you how amazing you were
in that scene in the movie
where you're beaten up in the park.
Sadly, that happened to Ralph again just last week.
[ Laughter ]
That's the chance you take
when you sleep in a park every night.
I've been fortunate enough to have been a five-time honoree
in People magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" --
truly a career highlight.

[ Laughter ]
What did I ever do to you?
[ Laughs ]
Oh, my God, this has been fun.
You know, tonight is the kind of experience
that I am absolutely certain to remember for several days.
[ Laughter ]
And I want to thank everybody
for trying to get under my flawless skin.
But I really do want to thank everyone
for taking the time to be here tonight.
I want to thank my wife of 25 years,
Sheryl Lowe... [ Cheers and applause ]
my sons, Matthew and John Owen.
I hope it wasn't too painful for you.
And I want to thank my fans for all the years of support.
We've been in this relationship a long time,
and it continues to be my honor.
You know, 26 years ago, just before I quit drinking,
I had been nominated for my fourth Golden Globe.
Publicly, it seemed like I was on top of the world,
but privately I had hit rock bottom,
so I got sober.
And that led me to this life
that I'm so grateful to have today.
But as I sat here tonight being constantly reminded
of my shortcomings,
surrounded by this cast of mutants --
I'm sorry, Ann -- racist mutants...
[ Laughter ]
...it hit me.
I didn't hit rock bottom 26 years ago.
I hit rock bottom an hour and a half ago.
How the fuck did I end up here?
[ Cheers and applause ]
You know?
I think it's because I stopped drinking.
Well...
that ends tonight!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Because it's never too late to start making good choices.
Oh, and by the way,
if anybody's got blow, I'll meet you in the bathroom.
I'm looking at you, Peyton Manning.
Thank you! And good night!

Jewel, killing it. You did so fucking good.
-You did fabulous in there. -Okay.
I said, "Rob, stick to your day job."
Peyton crushed it.
That's a good night of television.
It was awesome.
Pete Davidson was real funny.
It's over, and now I can have a drink with Rob Riggle.
Cheers.
Ross: That was more fun than people are supposed to have.
I think Rob Lowe had a good time.
I know he did.
I thought I'd be dead. I'm still alive. All right. Nice job.
