AceShowbiz - No one safe from Seth Rogen's biting jokes during his hosting gig at the 27th Annual Independent Spirit Awards. At the special dinner gala, "The Green Hornet" actor poked fun at Chris Brown over his recent performances at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards.
While ripping Breezy, Rogen mocked Brett Ratner over his homophobic slur, which cost him his hosting gig at the Oscars. "I honestly bet that Brett Ratner really wished he was organizing the Grammys because they seem much more forgiving than the Oscars," he said.
"You say a few hateful things, they don't let you within a few hundred yards of the Oscars," the funnyman continued. "You can literally beat the s**t out of a nominee and they'll ask you to perform twice at the Grammys."
Additionally, Rogen cracked a joke about Mel Gibson's movie which angered Jewish leaders. " 'Drive' made Jews so scary I thought Mel Gibson directed it," he mocked.
