Kevin Hart reveals A-list celebrity who should never be roasted: ‘You cannot do this’

Article excerpt

Comedian Kevin Hart has declared Oprah Winfrey off-limits for roasting, comparing any attempt to mock her to defacing Michelangelo's masterpiece. Hart, known for his edgy comedy and participation in celebrity roasts, drew a hard line around the media mogul, suggesting her cultural stature and influence place her in an untouchable category. His comparison, 'That'd be like spray painting the Sistine Chapel', underscores his view that some figures have transcended the typical bounds of comedy's fair game. The comment reflects the particular reverence many entertainers hold for Winfrey's decades-long career and philanthropic impact.
