The eventful show was broadcast live and unedited on the streamer, making for some pretty wild content.

Many famous faces were in attendance ready to give it their all, including Ben Affleck and Kim Kardashian.

During her appearance, Kardashian attempted to roast Brady, who later responded in kind when he took to the stage. Brady mentioned Kardashian's ex-husband, Kanye West, and their four children, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm West.

Brady joked, "Not because of this but because her kids are at home with their dad."

"Not because of this, but because her kids are home with their dad."

Well, Glaser has put the blame on some 'wild guy who’s a comedian' with a 'reputation for just, like, starting s**t'.

Speaking on an episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Glaser said: "Apparently, he started the boo as just, like, a joke. He just had too many drinks or something, and he’s not affiliated with Swifties or anything [and] just felt like saying a boo into the air, and apparently everyone was so riled up."

After the incident, Netflix edited out the booing from the final three-hour show.

The incident was discovered by the online community, which quickly discussed it heatedly on social media

One person said: Poor Kim

A second wrote: She’s got a new career as a comedian now.

Someone else said: I noticed that when I watched it. Also the laughing at her jokes sounded like such canned laughter.
