\tSeth Rogen<\/a> went Greek on Wednesday night, taking over Los Angeles\u2019 iconic Greek Theatre for a star-studded Netflix<\/a> is a Joke show benefitting his organization Hilarity for Charity. <\/p>\n

\tRogen served as host for the evening, which was dubbed \u201cSeth Goes Greek,\u201d as he led a lineup that included performances from Jon Stewart<\/a>, Nick Kroll, Eric Andr\u00e9, Sarah Silverman, Nikki Glaser, Josh Gad, Michael Bubl\u00e9, Busta Rhymes and magician Justin Willman. The Studio <\/em>star kicked things off as he rolled onto the stage via chariot, musing that Netflix\u2019s week-long comedy festival \u2014 featuring hundreds of shows across the city \u2014 was \u201ca very strange festival\u201d where even Jelly Roll has a comedy show. \t<\/p>\n

\tHe teased that Kanye West<\/a> was also performing as part of the fest, before revealing his thoughts on the rapper\u2019s recent sold-out shows<\/a> in L.A. \u201cHe had a song called \u2018Heil Hitler\u2019 and he\u2019s back. What\u2019s funny is I\u2019ve said critical things about Jewish people; I think I got in more trouble than Kanye West did,\u201d Rogen said. \u201cI got a lot of shit for what I said. I have no number one albums.\u201d He continued, \u201cI sometimes think what Adolf Hitler would think of the Kanye West song \u2018Heil Hitler.\u2019 I bet he\u2019d be torn.\u201d <\/p>\n

\tLater on in the night, Stewart also spoke about West\u2019s return during a bit about antisemitism, as he mused how \u201cfucking Kanye thinks we fucked up his Adidas deal.\u201d He went on, \u201cbut seriously, fuck that guy. He was like, \u2018Hitler we misunderstood, we\u2019ve got to forgive Hitler.\u2019 And I\u2019m like, I don\u2019t think I need to listen to anybody who thinks Hitler needs to be forgiven but is still mad at Pete Davidson,\u201d who he famously beefed with when the comedian was dating his ex-wife Kim Kardashian. \t<\/p>\n

\tElsewhere in his set, Stewart began roasting RFK Jr. before questioning if the crowd was made of MAHA supporters, as \u201cI don\u2019t know how fucked up Los Angeles is. I know you\u2019re pretty fucked up. I know you had a fire and a mudslide and you were like, no, fuck it. Let\u2019s let the guy from The Hills<\/em> fix it. So I assume you\u2019ve given up,\u201d in reference to Spencer Pratt\u2019s current bid<\/a> for L.A. mayor. He teased, \u201cHow you\u2019re gonna elect someone from The Hills <\/em>and not have it be Lauren [Conrad], come on.\u201d<\/p>\n

\tAnd when a plane went overhead as he mocked Trump, Stewart joked it the Secret Service, yelling, \u201cTell them Kimmel\u2019s house is over there! This has nothing to do with me. I\u2019m on basic cable. [Trump] doesn\u2019t even get the package.\u201d <\/p>\n

\tSilverman taunted RFK Jr. during her set as well, reading aloud the poem he wrote to reporter Olivia Nuzzi during their romance<\/a>. \u201cI couldn\u2019t make this up, it\u2019s so fucking gross, but I feel like it should get an audience here,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd like, I don\u2019t want to kink shame anybody but fuck this guy. He like brought back the measles.\u201d <\/p>\n

\tAnd during Kroll\u2019s time on stage, he reflected shooting comedy Get Him to the Greek<\/em> at the theater, alongside \u201cJonah Hill, the wonderful Russell Brand<\/a>, of course, Diddy, and a number of other alleged sex pests.\u201d He remembered a moment during rehearsal when pyrotechnics popped off while Brand was on stage, saying, \u201cAnd I swear to God, unfortunately, nothing happened to Russell.\u201d <\/p>\n

\tThe night was all in support of Hilarity for Charity, Rogen and his wife Lauren\u2019s nonprofit that cares for families affected Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Rogen put on a similar show<\/a> at 2024\u2019s Netflix is a Joke fest, as he teased to the crowd, \u201cThe way I put these shows together, just so you know, is I kind of just think who I personally would like to watch for an evening, and then I reach out to those people and I ask them if they\u2019ll do the show and then you have to watch that based on what I would like.\u201d \t<\/p>\n

\tThat programming saw Bubl\u00e9 singing while dressed as a giant QR code (during the donation portion of the evening), Willman doing a Houdini-inspired magic act and Busta Rhymes closing out the night with a string of his hits. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
