Ricky Gervais' 9 Best Roasts At Golden Globes 2020
5. Pesci Returns As A Brunt
After returning from a twenty-year retirement, Joe Pesci came back with a typically excellent performance in the acclaimed Scorsese movie The Irishman. A welcome man at any dinner table and after such a long vacation away from a stellar career, you would have thought that this legend would have been free from any roasting.
Step forward Ricky Gervais, who, as proved in his previous 5 times as host, holds no reservations, no matter who the star, for his insults.
Addressing the table that fielded the cast and crew of The Irishman, Gervais remarks "This table alone, legends, icons. Al Pacino, Robert De Niro. Baby Yoda!" He continues "oh no, sorry, that's Joe Pesci".
