Kim Kardashian does not look pleased as Tom Brady jokes she was afraid to go to ... trends now
Tom Brady zinged Kanye West on Sunday at his celebrity roast, garnering an awkward response from the musical artist's ex-wife Kim Kardashian.
Brady, 46, referenced West, 46, when delivering his response at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles to the many celebs who roasted him at the event Sunday, with Kim, 43, being one of them.
'I know Kim was terrified to be here tonight…not because of this but because her kids are at home with their dad,' the NFL legend said, leaving the crowd roaring.
The reality star - who shares daughters North, 10, and Chicago, six, and sons Saint, eight, and Psalm, four, with West - shook her head at the comment and held a restrained smile as she looked at the former New England Patriots quarterback, who she was romantically linked to about a year ago.
A number of social media users predicted that West wouldn't have a sense of humor in regards to Brady's joke, and that it was only a matter of time before the outspoken artist responded to the pointed punchline aimed at his parenting.

'Kanye about to drop a Tom Brady diss and make y’all forget about Kendrick and Drake,' one social media user said, referencing the ongoing rivalry between Kendrick Lamar and Drake.
Said another person: 'Do yall think we'll get a tom brady and kanye feud after this bc one thing about kanye is hes gonna type up a letter on a black screen real quick once it gets back to him.'
Another user said, 'Tom Brady made a joke about Kim being scared to be at the roast cause her kids were left with Kayne ahh man his next song or IG rant is gonna be insane.'
One user said, 'Gonna be hilarious when Kanye gets offended by Tom Brady’s joke after Tom just sat up there and listened to a whole room of people make jokes about his ex wife and children all night. You really can’t say s*** to Tom.'
Said one user: 'WHY DID TOM BRADY JUST FRY KIM K AND KANYE LMFAOOOOOO.'
Another user praised Brady for his no holds barred approach to the roast
"Tom Brady gives no f***s,' said the user. 'Like full scorched earth. OJ Simpson. 9/11. Aaron Hernandez. And he just destroyed Kim and Kanye. Nobody is safe.'
Kim was initially booed by the crowd hometown of Los Angeles when she took the podium at the roast of the gridiron icon.

Social media users were surprised at the comedic barbs the mild-mannered athlete let loose
Kim appeared caught off-guard by the chilly reception at the event, which was broadcast on Netflix as part of the streaming service's Netflix Is a Joke Fest.
The Los Angeles native was immediately jeered as she made her way onstage, pausing for a moment after thanking host Kevin Hart, 44.
She appeared to be launching into a joke, telling Hart, 'I know a lot of people make fun of your height,' before appearing to do a double take at the outburst from her less than-adoring public.
Kardashian, who sported blonde locks as she held a Champagne glass at the event in Southern California, sought to get the show back on track, saying, 'Alright, alright, alright, Kevin,' who himself appeared to jump in to do damage control as he said, 'Whoa, whoa.'
It's not the first time Kardashian has received a chilly reception from the public in her own backyard at an event linked to pro football: She was booed by the crowd at a Los Angeles Rams home game at SoFi Stadium against the Dallas Cowboys in October of 2022.
The crowd at the game began heavily booing when the Jumbotron camera panned from singer John Legend to the reality star, who smiled and waved prior to blowing a kiss.
A number of people on Sunday took to social media with real-time reactions to the chilly reception Kardashian received at the comedy event.
'Kim Kardashian getting booed at the Tom Brady Roast is incredible,' one user wrote, while another said, THEY JUST BOOED KIM KARDASHIAN BEFORE SHE EVEN SAID A WORD LMFAO.'
